sherbert79 8 Posted August 26, 2017 So I paid a bit extra cash to get my new Rolex on a 4-5 day delivery with DHL, it was posted on Monday so I was expecting a delivery pretty soon.......just got my tracking number and it's still in Hong Kong! Is the DHL tracking just as bad as the Chinese Mail? I.e. Could the watch be in the U.K. but tracking hasn't been updated? In future I will just settle for standard delivery and save some cash Haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andyboy 5 Posted August 26, 2017 Tracking numbers can be supplied without the watch actually being posted. If the tracking with DHL is showing the watch is still in HK then it could be anywhere. If it is not in HK then it might be somewhere else, but could still be in HK. It probably is somewhere and it might appear somewhere else. When it does then the tracking might be correct but then again it could be wrong. I ordered some parts from HK on Sunday and they arrived on Thursday, on Friday I got a tracking number. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nofitstate 27 Posted August 26, 2017 My current order is the same. Tracking number supplied Monday, still waiting to be picked up by DHL on Saturday. Though from experience, once it does get in the air it only takes 24 to 48 hours to get to my door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sherbert79 8 Posted August 29, 2017 Update on this one, so the DHL tracking hasn't moved since last Monday, still saying it's in HK, I emailed DHL who have told me they haven't actually had the parcel handed to them, they can issue a tracking number without a parcel and then it comes live when the parcel is handed in! Spoke to the TD and he says there are issues with DHL in HK, have I lost this watch as neither the TD or DHL seem to know we're it is? I'm not having much luck with watches this year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nofitstate 27 Posted August 29, 2017 Looks like I'm in still in the same boat as you. Mine still hasn't changed from "shipment information received" from last Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WatchDog21 3,345 Posted August 29, 2017 ^^^ This is the second one to hit in a matter of days so extra patience is need for the moment. Typhoon batters Hong Kong and south China, three dead in Macau Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sherbert79 8 Posted August 29, 2017 It's more the fact that the TD is saying it has been posted but DHL are saying it hasn't that's worrying me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
