TD says delays on all postal services at the moment into Europe. He doesn't say way but we can only speculate it is iphone 6 shipments taking priority, hangover from chinese week off and this fraud business in Hong Kong. Question is at what point does it move from a delay to an issue?

Well my parcel has been delayed for just little under a month now. Since I paid for express shipping, it started being an issue after about a week of waiting. This is f'in unacceptable.

Hmmm...delay for some, pretty normal for others. Took my watch two weeks to arrive. Dealers blame everything from ebola to iphone 6. I believe it's all down to the national holidays and now a SERIOUS backlog. Keep the faith guys!

Exactly, so it should have already left china and arrived before the holiday even started!
The thing that worries me is that according to the latest update on their website, it has LEFT China. That's also what my dealer said. Now, as far as I know, no plane has gone down recently. However, what if our shipments were in some country, on some truck or something that had an accident and maybe lost a few packages? They can't have been flying around the world for a freaking month now, without ending up in the right place.

Exactly... I've been checking the EMS site since 9/25 and its been showing Dispatched from sorting center in Guangzhou.. And the local post site says the same.

Contacted my TD today and all he said was the rep has already been mailed and I should receive it soon.

So I guess just have to keep waiting as patiently as possible

in addition to waiting for this package I also ordered a new rubber b rolex strap from nembo over the road on repgeek. It was shipped by thai registered post on the 20th and tracking has been the same as ems. Enquired with him on the 9th and he said I should have had it by now and resent a new one on Wednesday.

That was airmail, not express and he considered it to be lost in transit after 20 days. As far as I am concerned the ems packages are now also lost in transit and the TD's here should recognise that instead of telling us to wait!

I have told nembo that if two straps arrive I will gladly send one back.

I just checked the EMS website and it showed movement!

2014-09-28**15:33:00GUANGZHOU*Despatch from Sorting Center**
2014-10-17**18:39:00GUANGZHOU*Arrival at Sorting Center**

I'm hoping that it's not the same exact sorting center or its hopefully moving along in the process.

Keeping my fingers crossed

My dealer first said the watch would be here in two days, but it didn't arrive. So now he said it should be here on Monday. Time will tell...

My package-app "Deliveries Package Tracker" (great app - check it out, it's the only app I've ever paid for!) just told me that there was an update on my package! It has now landed in my country, finally!!!
