Hi guys - my Getat Italian style watch apparently left HK on Friday the 26th. Does anyone have a notion when it will be popping in my door? I'm in Belgium right now but I presume it will be much the same wherever you are in the EU.
Any clues appreciated!

A week is par for the course in my experience.
7-10 days from previous experience.
3 to 5 days for me.

Just had a delivery from there took 10 days including customs
Thanks for the info guys!
Mine entered the Hong Kong postal system on Friday (26/02) as well.Originally Posted by barneygumble
I will post when mine arrives.
If you get the wrong watch we can probably swap them over ;-)
I had something take 5 weeks before Christmas :shock:
"I looked with pity not untinged with scorn upon these trivial-minded passers-by"
I think we actually could! I seem to remember you ordered something very similar to me - 'super lume' Luminor style, seal strap, titanium case, PVD movement (for the heck of it!).Mine entered the Hong Kong postal system on Friday (26/02) as well.

I'd appreciate it if you let me know when yours arrived as mine is being delivered (I think) to my work address at a building I don't often visit... 8)
Most things I've had sent from HK have arrived pretty quickly, a few days is quite common. In most cases it's faster than stuff arrives from the States anyway, and similar to times from Japan...
Tonight I'm wearing a new watch :D Posted from Japan on the 25th :D
PS. Honk :lol:
I ordered the following:
Superlume 44mm luminor style case black dial with white numberals watch
Case Option : Polished Steel
Front glass : Mineral Glass
Hands Colour : black
Movement : Normal Stainless Steel
Stitch Option : White
Strap Option : Dark Brown
Ordered two watches a month ago from HK - the second one arrived in 4 days, the first is still not here and I am pretty sure that I'll never see it :(
If you're getting things sent from HK, I recommend asking the sender to use the simple Speedpost EMS from Hong Kong Post. This is what I use and - so far, fingers crossed, touch wood, etc, etc- no problems. Delivery within 3-5 days.
The best bit is that they will let you insure watches for whatever you like. Fedex and others here will only insure a watch for up to around 500 Euros.

7-10 days, unless customs jump on 'em.....where is HONK kong btw?

marchingontogether!
Mine arrived today, well packed and exactly how spec'd.
The strap is something else, a real toshi killer ;-)
Amazingly bright lume, the standard movement in mine is really attractive, the standard crystal is really
clear and movement winds with a real positive feel.
Well pleased.
That's great -I'm very pleased with mine too, aside from a little dust inside the display back, and the fact that it takes me 2 minutes to wind the thing. And I just spotted (thanks to a fellow poster!) that I've created a new city, 'Honk Kong'. I could edit it, but it might give someone a laugh... :)Mine arrived today, well packed and exactly how spec'd.

Mine arrived today also. Very pleased.
Couple of comments though:
1 Should I have ordered the 47mm instead of the 44mm? I have chunky wrists and the 24mm strap to 44mm case is as close proportionally as it could be.
2 I specified the polished steel case, yet the arm on the crown guard has brushed finish (as per the pictures on the website) - minor detail.
Am I happy with it?
Well enough to order another to address the above points!
