Will the Rolex delivery be late?

Hi!

In case you didnt know, most of the airports in north western europe is closed due to a vulcano on Island.

For example all of the Airports in Sweden has been closed for a couple of days.
Does Rolex ship watchs via air, or do they go with train or boat?

Thank you!

If you're really looking forward to it, if it's all you can think about....if you waited a long time to 'pull the trigger'......

...Yup, it'll be late!

Seriously, I don't know if the Volcanic ash thing will affect it - but I hope you *don't* have a long wait. (It's bad enough waiting in the AD for them to do the paperwork!)

Good luck,
Mark

I hope the volcanic ash won't damage your Rolex.

On serious note; yes, 99% chance that it will. (perhaps not A LOT of days, but deliveries world wide are being affected by this)

Cheers,
Joe
