Anything that you might see in a photo of mine just ignore. If it is an issue I will fix it. Most of the time its just optics. It is never a jackleg remediation type thing. OK, so maybe a little harsh. Sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well as I said, I thought his reply was in jest - but having discovered he regrets his harsh response, now I’m inconsolable. And it’s best if Efeo never finds out what “wtf” means. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cvp3 2,103 Posted September 23, 2021 Went with the frog. Tried to buy the seamanstern but AE wanted to collect tax making the price $192 after coupon. Froggy was free ship and no tax along with a $10 OFF coupon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Froggy was free ship and no tax along with a $10 OFF coupon. Still horrific, but a lot better than the other one. The bracelet at least matches the case (the other one is a horrible, shiny bracelet compared to a darker, brushed case). This bracelet also fits the lugs, everything is properly aligned, plus it has a frog on it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eb211 2 Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) Ordered the Seestern 300 on Sunday the 19th directly from Seestern. Paid the express delivery to get here faster (Don't want the wife to see before coming back from her trip on the 6th of October, lol) wrote email to Seestern on the 21st at 11pm... which is 11am the 22nd up in China to find out a shipping, and they said that they were shipping out, and I will receive a tracking number later that day, but nothing. Waited again another day for yesterday the 22nd at 11pm... which is 11am the 23rd up there in China, and I wrote to them to please provide me with the tracking, and shipping provider. They wrote back saying that they will update me with the tracking info today... so far, it is 1:23 pm here, and Friday the 24th at 1:23 am up in China. Hmmm, lord knows what's going on. You have to write to these people at night, because they are exactly 12 hours ahead of Eastern time in the US. I need that order to exit China before they enter another national holiday of theirs on the 1st of October. Am I getting the run around? Express delivery a bad idea?

Popperini 17,778 Posted September 23, 2021 @eb211 They're almost certainly lying to you about the shipping. It's the same with every Chinese seller - they assure you they'll be sending it by some registered postal service on precisely so and so date, but it's meaningless. It'll get bundled in with all their other shipments on whichever is the cheapest (or currently most reliable) outward service. It's just the way they all work, and there's nothing really that can be done except just know and accept that's how it'll be when you start the purchase process...

Redfire1066 10,912 Posted September 23, 2021 Heimdallr Watches Official store, WRWatches and SanMartin Watches, ((Gnomon Watches, Singapore should be mentioned too for there excellent customer service)) have always delivered to me quickly to the UK by FEDEX Express Airmail with detailed tracking. Never been more than 5 days …. Often 3 days. Occasionally, there is a delay putting the order together… but once posted … delivered quickly. Only very slow deliveries and delays I have experience have come from the Gate purchases. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It depends largely on the seller, but when they list it as 10 day delivery you will usually get it in a couple of weeks (oddly enough never in 10 days, in my experience).

Was the item listed as 10 day delivery? The watch was ordered directly from the Seestern company's website. They have it as free shipping is anywhere from 14 to 21 days I believe, and express shipping is 3 to 14 days. I am hoping that it leaves China before their upcoming holiday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
