9 out of 10, I get my watches from the ADs because I always check the merchandise first before I tie the knot. This is a habit. For the very few times I get from the web, I check about 3 times a day.

For buckles, straps, spare parts, I check maybe once in 2 to 3 days.

Once a day just to see if all is going as it should.

does checking numerous times after you are given the date the watch will arrive make it arrive any faster?dog smile.gif

Woah! Since nothing  I buy is local... 

I wait until I see that the shipper has lodged it with their post office or the courier and porovides me with evidence, then I sit on my hands for about 14 days.

Usually it is like - " Don't look, no - don't look, oh bugger, OK, don't look - just be patient  - no. really, don't look..  it will get here... what if it doesn't get here... OH - here it is!!!"

I have a ritual though - I contact the courier or follow the shipping very closely after the 14 days, and usually the item arrives the day after I start to fret... Haven't had a non-delivery in many years. Touch wood.

No option - Perth is a long way from anywhere else...

Cheers all!  IanM    hand6.gif

I've been out of it for a while but, I'll take a guess and say that the sea viper is an invicta?
