purchasing a watch online from America

[Futureologist]

Aside from the potential risk of being asked to pay import duty on a purchase, has anyone else sourced and obtained a watch from the states and had it posted to the UK?

Im after a TAG F1 (CAH1110 - BA0850), and reluctant to pay UK prices, but after some browsing I found the same watch for under £500 in the states.

There must be an obvious flaw in what seems like a potential simple transaction?

Anyone got any experiences or recommend a US based TAG authorised dealer?
