I live in the UK and I have a Batman ready to collect from Spain (Barcelona). Only issue is that it’s currently in Andorra so my friend can’t pick it up. So I own the watch but have to wait.

I took a 3.5 hour train ride to get two OP36, for a month ago. It was worth it.

Keep us posted OP :)

I’ve once flew 24 hours to get a watch. So I get it. But flying during COVID to get a watch is another level.

Stay safe and post the incoming soon.

good for you OP. there is nothing to fear except fear itself. thousands of people flying every single day, if you feel nervous wear a mask and take some vitamin c.

for all the scare mongering there are doctors from around the world risking their repuations and livelihoods to speak out against governement tyranny and the covid response. Whos telling the truth? i doubt we will ever know

Have flown to Dubai from the US to get a watch - great place to go (bring money!!). Studies of air flow and turnover in the cabin convince me that flying is quite safe and I don't worry about it. Now on a flight from South Africa to New York - how about another scotch?
