·Incidentally, as another Australian who has had to pay clearance assessment fee, import duty and GST, what extra charges did you have to pay to clear Customs? (Unless it slipped straight through in the mail, in which case extra congratulations are in order).

i paid 10% of the declared value, plus $129. I still don’t have a receipt from DHL for the GST. So I’m not sure if part of that was 10% on the shipping costs, as the invoice price included shipping.

·Are the charges paid up front?
A few years ago when I was collecting vintage guitars I had to deal directly with the various agencies after the guitar had landed in Australia.

·It was shipped by DHL, so definitely didn’t slip through!

Thanks. That is roughly in line with what I paid, but I could not get clarity from DHL on exactly how their charges were calculated.
To return to your watch, it is a very nice acquisition.

·BNIB, complete with a warranty card with the date of payment! So it’s a 10yr old watch, but still under warranty!
