Vanguard band for Tudor or Rolex

Hello: does anybody have any experience ordering a Vanguard rubber band for a Rolex or Tudor? They ship from Emirates (I live in the States) and my concern is about the import duties since I can not find online any accurate number, some websites say 0 to 10%, others, double the price of the band(130.00 usd)
Thanks

I ordered 2 of these for my Tudor BB a few months ago. They were shipped with DHL and I did not pay any more due to them coming from UAE. Great straps, at a fraction of the price of other bands. Highly recommend.

Likewise I have two, one for a BB and the other for a BB58. The straps are great quality with really quick fully tracked delivery by DHL. For the UK there was a minimal customs charge of around £3 payable on-line to DHL whilst the strap was on it's journey. Looks like a similar negligible or zero import cost to the US. I highly recommend Vanguard they are great.

Ordered Saturday, and received at 9am on Tuesday.

Love the strap. All the reviews are true. One gripe: it was the toughest strap I’ve ever installed... even tougher than the original bracelet.

Took me about 45min and all my patience.
