how did you get it past customs? Did you take a Rolex down there with you? Curious as I am heading to Aruba in 3 weeks and was wondering how I claim it or do I mail boxes from there?

Remember is St. Thomas, there is a huge discount for customs. I think it's $1,600 per person in your party and it can be combined. So a party of 4, for example, can purchase a $6,400 watch and not pay anything.

Rolesor · 12 March 2011, 01:20 AM

what a way to end a trip! congrats - she looks perrty!!

We love it too. My wife buys all her perfumes and cosmetics for the year when we visit. I always stop and get lunch at Cafe Amici for the pizza.

As far as getting a watch past customs I wear the new watch and put the box in a checked bag and the papers in another one. It's worked for me on 4 out of 4 watches and I look like a terrorist especially when I don't shave for a few days so most everyone here should be fine.

x2. my 2 kids and wife were with me, so i think our total exemption was around $6400. + customs really never checks too hard when they have 4500 people rolling through in that day!

pricing was very aggressive, caribbean list is cheaper than us, and then 5% off.

thanks for all of the compliments.

Ooh, is Cafe Amici the little spot down an alleyway? If so, we ate there too and it was awesome! So lovely sitting outside
