Incoming from Switzerland...?
A friend of mine is considering buying a watch from Switzerland and having it shipped. He was asking me about customs charges, insurance, etc. I've never had a watch shipped from Switzerland so I thought I'd ask on here. Any advice, suggestions, or past experiences?
Thanks |

Not allowed and customs will confiscate it.

And since you post in Rolex section we can only assume it is a Rolex which can't be shipped into US as Mon said above.

It's actually not a Rolex. I think he's wanting to bring a Vacheron in.

Will customs take other watches other than Rolex as well?

No and the thread is being moved as this is the Rolex section.
