Who the heck applies a ‘high value’ sticker to a shipment? Horrible!

It's not easy to make out on this crappy zoomed in picture, but the orange sticker (affixed to outside box) says "HIGH VALUE" on it.


Depends upon you. If you don’t mind scratches and dings, it’s a great choice. IMO they don’t look so good after a while. You should check out a dealer that has some older preowned ones first to see if you can live with it. Also keep in mind that polishing can really only be done by them and they are literally a fortune to service. Friend of mine scuffed his bezel and the polish was $800.

What a joke for them to label high value. It is like an open invitation for thieves.

And now for constructive advice:
Ship by USPS Registered-Insured for MORE than the watch is worth -insist on this from
an AD or anyone else. FEDEX Special is next best.

USPS it is hand delivered and signed for-period. No hassle if lost or stolen. Insurance pays off.
It is worth it in the end.

Any UPS shipment over 5K has a high value sticker, each UPS employee that has contact with the package must sign off on it and a customer signature is mandatory at time of delivery. Fed Ex dropped the ball upon delivery, make them PAY!!! Sorry for your loss!
