If I told you , you wouldn’t believe it .......
A guy on another UK forum posted it for sale over a month ago.
He received no comments about it at all , I contacted him & offered him a price & he accepted.

I thought they stopped these a few years ago ?
Maybe I’m wrong about this ;-)

Can someone tell me if I order this watch case from Switzerland, do I get taxed somehow, and where and how do I pay that tax? Their website says something about chance of being taxed?

I cant remember exactly the process but you will receive an invoice from US Customs with a duty amount that is owed by you.

I don't remember if it comes separately or if it is attached to the package when you receive it.

I had just found out from the company that nothing they sell is high enough to be taxed in the US. The warning on their website concerned me, but they said that may be for other countries.

The maker of the winder is Swiss Kubik. They make official winders for both Omega and Rolex. They can make multiples of winders together with either wood, aluminium, carbon fibre or leather finishes. Each unit can be programmed for turns per day either clockwise or ccw. Batteries last 2-3 years and has a silent running motor. Extremely well-made winders but I know how much of a contentious topic they are on this forum!
