Shipping to Europe for Repair

Bob:

I have never shipped a watch out of the country to be repaired, but I have to assume that there are standard customs / import / export procedures in place, to address this scenario. I am confident that the person in Europe who would be repairing your watch would be able to guide you through the process.
