If You Were Me (5396r-012)
I am relatively new to this, so would like your advice. I bought a Patek 5396r-012 from a trusted seller here for what I felt was a good price. I love the face of the watch, love the numerals, enjoy the rose gold and leather look. Alas, it's a bit too small for me. I even had a chance to wear it at the store first, and felt it would work. But it doesn't really. I'm a big guy and this is a thin 38.5 diameter. I paid around $37k, which I felt was a good deal on this watch. Now, about a month later, I've inquired around for a trade, and the value is 20% less. I'd be down around $7k on it in 30 days, including from the seller I bought from. Obviously, I thought I'd be able get more of my money out of this watch if it didn't work. Nobody TOLD me that, I just thought. Again, I'm new to this, and I hope it's okay to post these numbers here as I don't often see prices being discussed like this. Can edit if necessary. What would you do in this situation? Keep it for a while? Try to sell it your

Which carrier would you choose to ship a Tudor from USA to Switzerland?
I'm selling a Tudor right now and the buyer is located in Zurich, Switzerland (I'll be shipping it from Texas). I've never shipped internationally before and am a bit nervous about it. For those that regularly ship internationally, which carrier would you recommend? I'd like to be able to insure the package, but I've heard there are insurance limits on international shipping. Is that somewhat accurate?Thank you in advance for the help.

How much tax when bringing a watch back to USA
