Delivery Time from TimeShops

Just wondering if any EU members can advise how long shipping usually takes when buying from TimeShops. This is my first order with them, my package shipped on Oct. 15th. The tracking number provided doesn't seem to work on the HK Post website. Shipping from other dealers usually takes about 10 days, it's been nearly 3 weeks and I'm getting a bit nervous.

You should try using the Packagetrackr service at http://www.packagetrackr.com - this has been great for me!

Hope it gets to you soon!

Thanks for the info arkseven, I tried the link, looks like a handy site but unfortunately I get this response: "Tracking information unavailable".

Yours shipped Oct. 29th and it's already in the UK, that seems really quick. Mine shipped Oct. 15th, not a good sign...

Doesn't look good Dude! Hopefully it will turn up soon for you! Did you use EMS shipping?

I'm really happy with the speed, should be delivered at some point today, hopefully.

I went with HK Post as well, it's been 14 working days (19 total days), so hopefully it will arrive soon.

Good luck Fordystar. I've ordered from Silix several times and have always gotten my shipment in about 10 days (EU).

I ordered from Silix before. Michelle was my contact. It took some time because they said my original ordered watch did not pass QC so they were sourcing another for me. I also ordered a Swiss ETA " whatever that is" and it was apparently waterproofed. So when it arrived it was definitely not a Swiss movement and only after I epoxy modded the HEV was it ready to go.

Hi Mark, We've actually traded several emails about this order already. It's now been 26 days (14 business days). I'll wait another week or so then email you again if they haven't arrived. Cheers
