Hi all!

I would really like to buy a pearl from this guys... But they want to charge me $75! Just for the shipping!!!

I know someone said that they charged $7?? For send to the USA...

I'm in uruguay, and i would really like to buy one of this pearls... Its for my sub LV it is almost to arrive...

The other thing i would like to get is the jewerly outlet insert... But cant find the store or seller in ebay...

So my real question is... Would there be a kind soul that could get the pearl for me and get it sent to my place??

Thanks a lot to all, i hope not to bother everyone...

Wholesaleoutlet990, I think. WM shipping is a challenge, see other thread on this

Don't bother with WSO pearls, just the same crappy rep pearls you get. You definitely need a kind soul in the USA to buy and send you the WM pearls as they are so much better. Just a piece of advice, buy 2-3 even if you just need one, they are pretty cheap but sometimes you can get a bad one.

Yes they have to be relumed to be blue, they all come green. The only issue with the DSSD pearl is you need the stock cup to have the correct height and it has to be modded to fit the WM pearl into it. I normally do this in house, but I might be able to walk you through it if you are comfortable doing work on the watch? Kinda your call.

Thanks for all responses, some kind soul in the usa is helping me, i didnt thought of the pearl that could be defective... I just need one as my watch is actually cheap.... And i'm getting the wholesaleoutlet insert for the lv, do you guys think it could be much of a diference with the JO insert??
There are some for sale right now... My friend helping me already ordered the wso insert, but the jo could be much of a diference??

Thanks.

You can order an insert from WM with the insert already in it. I've never done this personally but might save ya some hassle. I do hear they are pretty good though.

Thanks for the input Rick, i hope this one looks good, it looks sharper than the one my rep has, so i must think its good to go...
And the WSO has the flat top 4 at the 40 mark and i think i kind of liking it, that was one of the first versions of the submariner LV

Btw, i looked at the LV you did, damn, looks crazy!! I hope to get a "similar" result with mine :p

Thanks a lot :D

Bonsey mentioned getting a few wm pearls, and he's right. You might get a bad one in three.
Another idea, and the best....is a genuine insert. If your patient and persistent, you can get one for 60-100$. They are worth it too. The wm pearl is ok compared to the average pearl that comes on our reps, but compared to a gen they are not that good.
If you have gone as far as buying a top end rep.. like a Tc or Wm9..it's really worth it to get a gen.

Yes, you are correct, if i get a TC some time down the line i will get a gen insert for it, but for this cheap sub LV, no way, i dont think he deserves it lol!
Anyway, i'm just waiting for that pearl, i think that i should need to be lucky and get a good one as i ordered just one...
Hey i'm a poor guy and need some clothes too :lol::lol::lol:
