I have discussed with Ralf and he will be able to do the shipping of EU watches from Germany that are ordered during the Preorder Only
Once the watches are produced, the remaining models are all shipped from the factory to my location in the States, and I can in turn ship them anywhere in the world from the US. And customs limits and taxes are something to consider or research before a purchase is made.
This will be the case for all models we currently offer and future models.

I can understand your reasons for this move however I think you could lose a lot of potential sales to Europe and elsewhere not just the UK possibly making the Benarus brand USA exclusive.
It is not just the fact that we are charged exorbitant import duties in the UK, We have to pay VAT on top of these duties and on the postage charges plus a not insubstantial fee by the carriers (RM at least) for paying these charges before delivery.
Along with the decision to use a roll instead of a box this will probably affect the value of the Benarus brand to collectors.
In the current economic climate is it prudent to potentially limit your sales market?
