Balls! Ordered my Seiko from Creation and it's been caught by customs as Creation undervalued the package.

Nice VAT and admin charge to pay. Having read around this is something that's been happening more and more to Creation deliveries so don't think I'll be using them again.

I have the DA36 Black and bought the suede strap for it a few months back, looks great on mine but really suits the dial on yours!

Did Creation not put down the actual purchase price, If so why have customs classed as undervalued??
Bought a watch from the US last year & landed no problems, but I'm asking as I've just bought another yesterday and the seller offered to mark as parts or repair, I declined (as it's valuable & didn't want someone turning it into parts or repair) the seller has declared a cough purchase value ... what if customs decide I've had a bargain?

Great watch and one that I'm seriously contemplating, do you mind if I ask if you bought new/used/duty free?

AD who just supplied my GMT said they'd supply at duty free price plus another 5%, I just need someone from abroad with return tickets..

Had this awhile now, but don't wear it often, so it still feels like my 'new' watch

Love 'em!

Only reason I don't have one is that I like my dates! I might grow up one day and overcome that; I hope so anyway.

I used to be the same, but having bought my first non date watch, I soon realised it wasn't an issue.

Got a new camera recently so here's my best attempt at a lume shot of the Z-Blue..

Thanks - it's a bit mad and quite big for vintage, 46mm!

Lovely. My go to watch, every time I pause to think what to wear I end up with that one on the strap in the last pic, the deployment is a work of art as well.

Enjoy it smile
