OK, I am about to replace my stolen black bay, and as a true watch nut, I ofcourse have my thoughts flying all over the place about wether to get the same ol' watch, or get something new, now that I have the chance.
I have looked at some used gens, both rolie and tudor both in EU and in the US.
NOW; if I buy a gen in the US, I will have to import it into Denmark, which will cost me an arm (our customs actually catch anything comming through).
If I have it sent to a mate in UK, the question is, will there be anything on the insured parcel ( insured higher value than a rep), that will tick the customs, and make them charge customs and other horrible fees?
I always assumed that the UK was customs safe (93,5%) and therefore had this solution as first thought, but then I got to think that the high value parcel was a problemo.
I like to hear thoughts of anyone who has experience with this.
thanks guys
