ems does indeed pass to parcelforce in the uk BUT they do not deliver on Saturdays-they run on workings days only so it will be Monday next. you can however go to your local parcelforce depot on a Saturday morning with the tracking number and you can pick it up in person, you may need some form of id though. the only time parcelforce do deliver Saturdays is if the parcel is sent within the uk on a Friday and extra is paid for Saturday delivery.
I know this as use them for large parcel deliveries weekly in the uk and have mates who work at the local depot.

As above, I've never had Parcel Farce deliver on a Saturday, it'll come on Monday while you're at work and you'll have to go to the depot to fetch it! Good news is you'll have your watch soon.

ems don't delivery it-parcelforce do in the uk...ems is just the service used, the package is then passed to your countries default mail carrier when it reaches customs. yes each country is different, but in the uk its as I posted above and parcelforce do not delivery Saturdays. parcels sent in the uk on Fridays via parcelforce express 24hr service will arrive Monday unless you pay an extra £12 for Saturday delivery...when ems changes to parcelforce the service becomes parcelforce express 24hr and with no option of paying the extra 12 quid it will arrive Monday as standard...OP can easily check on parcelforce website, all the info is in the FAQ there or just type Saturday into the search box of their website.
