Just choose standard / default shipping... It is the best and safest...

Don't pay extra for fancy options that can potentially make your parcel's journey more prone to governmental interference.
Thanks! Unfortunantly what appear to be the default is the express shipping with tracking for $35 orhter it's Airmail for $15. TD says it can take 2 weeks for QC delivery and another 2-3 weeks to deliver to USA. SInce it seems sooooooo long I thought it may not matter to ship express?

Shit now it says for the option for Airmail does not cover any damage or loss and is at your own risk and not intended for watches....WTH.
Talk to them and clearly ask which one is better and ask to pay the difference.

At this time of the year, AirMail or Express Mail works about the same.

Sometimes Express Mail due to a huge backlog (peak season) will end up just a little faster.

The TD will know the best and safest way to ship with no customs issues.

Thanks.

To be more clear, as for shipping to USA currently,

Airmail $15 = China post this is mostly choosen for spare parts orders , do not cover any loss. Usually takes around a month for delivery. Sometimes can be faster but not always.

Express $35= USPS shipping this is the option for shipping watches , more guaranteed. Usually takes two weeks for delivery. Sometimes will take longer ,specially during xmas and new year period.

Hope it helps, thanks.
