Here is something new.
When buying a watch which is going to be sent by USPS.
Take into account that the seller has to remove the batteries from the watch.
I just bought a Seiko and seller has removed it's batteries.
Here his reaction.
starting on may 20 2012 the international civil aviation organization (icao) will no longer ship devices that incluide lithium-ion batteries to international destinations wrist watches are incluide in that regulation
we can still ship devices whith batteries by ups or fedex but is more expensive than usps.
I found this Link.

He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever.
The reason i collect watches is because it feels like i'm buying time.
