AlexFelix 197 Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) Hello everyone! After a long chitchat with a friend on "how cool those watch are", I had to try one my self so I got straight to Toro's and ordered one last November (before I joined the club). But I did not wanted just a "Royal Oak", I seen a cool one on the Leo Messi wrist so for me was an easy choice. I wanted it. After a friendly talk with Toro's, 10 days waiting to find the right one and a Western Union payment it arrived in 2 weeks from Spain (I live in Italy, luckily the customs have not seized it or made it "disappear"). Anyway a little review. The watch is generally perfect and well made. Even the weight correspond to the genuine. In fact is uber solid! The cronograph is fully working (although I don't 'stress' it so much) and perfectly keep the time. I I have to find an ''issue'' that is not really an issue is that the watch is BIG. I don't have a tiny wrist but this tests my arm! Below are some pic, sorry for the poor quality but my fiance stole my camera so I made those with my iPhone this time.

GenTLe 1,510 Posted April 10, 2016 You got from China, sent from China to Spain and resend from Spain to here in Italy. Since Spain is in EU the package doesn't go in the customs at all, here in Italy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasonbaylee 192 Posted April 10, 2016 Unfortunately this AP LM is a low rep. Nothing to scream about but you will learn the rope soonest. More than 1 road to Rome... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlexFelix 197 Posted April 10, 2016 You got from China, sent from China to Spain and resend from Spain to here in Italy. Since Spain is in EU the package doesn't go in the customs at all, here in Italy. Everything sent from outside Italy pass through the International Exchange Center, for what I know. Is not exactly customs but they can seize a package if they want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is not exactly customs but they can seize a package if they want. International exchange center is not customs. It is the hub where the shipments from outside are forwarded to customs (extra ue packages) or to postal centers. Trust me because I know enough of this system Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlexFelix 197 Posted April 10, 2016 That's why I said "is not exactly customs". I had regular packages seized by them (not related to watch, as I said "regular" package) anyway, but I'm not questioning your knowledge The thing I don't understand is the "low rep" comment above, but it does not hurt me so much.

Jasonbaylee 192 Posted April 10, 2016 No mate. You choose the wrong model. Read up in the forum especially those reviews. More than 1 road to Rome... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlexFelix 197 Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) Ohh got it. I know that there's some difference (maybe a lot?) but I just wanted to give a try on AP. I liked but I think I will not buy a second After a 5512 come out I'm also considering to sell this!! Edited April 10, 2016 by AlexFelix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
