BFPO and Rolex

[Jimmcb]

Do Rolex honour the benefits from buying and using a bfpo address?

I don't know but I wouldn't send anything worth more than a tenner through the BFPO.

Hi Jim, I don't know about Rolex specifically but many UK based watch companies do (e.g. Watch Obsession). You need to be very careful though as maximum insurance cover (at additional cost) is £2,500 and that isn't available to all BFPO addresses. Stuff passing through Northolt regularly gets damaged in transit and total loss is uncommon but not unheard of.

I couldn't find any seller who would ship a Rolex/Tudor via BFPO a couple of years back when I was away. A good example were Iconic - they would ship everything else happily, but not Rolex.

Many thanks for all the responses guys.

Much appreciated.

Jim.

Thanks Matthew

Hope you’re safe and well over there.

All the very best
