Going through airport customs - Germany
Hey all,I feel like it has been forever since I posted. I have a quick question about traveling internationally with my Omega Seamaster. In a month, I will be leaving for Europe and will be traveling through different countries. Did any of you have any trouble with airport customs when it came to going through the customs at the airport with your watch on. I've heard that 1. if they find a high end watch such as Omega, that they will check the watch for authenticity and either assess a custom duty fee or confiscate it if they believe it is counterfeit. Now, I'm not worried about the counterfeit piece, as I can back up the fact that it is authentic, but I am a bit concerned about customs duty fees. When I go through customs I will be wearing the watch. What are your guys' experiences with customs. The first part of my journey will be in Munich, Germany. Thanks!

Seamaster advice needed
GuysYou probably know that I was looking to cash in on my loyalty card offers and put them towards an Omega Moonwatch.However, now the Moonwatch is almost Rolex money I'm kinda stuck.I had been thinking of buying my 6 month old son a watch and sticking it in the safe (with regular servicing) so that when he's 21 he gets a sweet vintage watch.At Goldsmiths I have seen this...However, I know bugger all about Seamasters. This is the 41mm automatic movement...it's about ��1300. With my vouchers next year I could pick one of these up for free.What do you think?Can you give me any info on it?J

Looking to get my first Patek
Thank you in advance and sorry for a new thread, but most of the ones I saw regarding this started with asking advice regarding a couple of watches. I wanted to keep it broader.I am looking to add a Patek to my watches. I have a Deep Sea Dweller and a GMT (same year I was born) and a Cartier Tank that was my grandfathers. I am 6'7 and the Deep Sea Dweller looks like a normal watch on me..haha. My wife actually works for Tiffany so I would love a co-brand if I could find one but not set on that.Will probably try to buy a pre-owned but not 100%. Budget is up to 45k but will consider anything.From reading pretty much every thread here on Patek, it seems that people either say get what I love (problem being I pretty much love them all) and/OR Nautilus, blue dial SS :)I justify my lust with thinking that collectibility will retain investment, so I am 100% interested in items with good resale and collectibility.Sorry for the book and thank you so much in advance.
