In Response To: & a quick Google later... ()

steve......yes i was referring to 4455...the form itself is very confusing and havent been able to find someone at customs to direct me on what needs to be filled out. If you have used this form, can you tell me what parts i should fill out?

Thanks

Philip

:
: I found the following links...

: What is a CF 4455 & why do I need it ?

: Here's a Cool Online version that you can
: fill out ( Online ) & print

: More help on what to do with the CF 4455

: This last link seems to suggest that you need
: to get the form certified at you local
: Customs office ... so you need to go there.

: I would :-

: Take the watch, & a magnifying glass /
: Loupe ( make sure you can remove the watch
: back with your fingers ). Describe the watch
: in the Item description as ( Example )
: Omega flightmaster Movement serial number
: 31,111,222 .

: You can remove the back & show the customs
: official to prove it IS the watch you claim
: it is. Hopefully that should be enough,
: he'll then certify the certificate.

: & you can send the watch on its way. ( you
: need to send a copy of the CF 4455 with the
: watch, Omega should know hwat this is &
: how to fill it out. They'll send it / a copy
: back )

: When the watch comes back, Omega will use the
: movement serial number on the invoice. I
: WOULD NOT let anyone open the watch now
: ... but since the Invoice identifies the
: watch with the same number as the CF 4455,
: there shouldn't be a problem.

: Finally Philip, in the 1st link, there is a
: link to "find your local customs
: office", use that, then call 'em.

: I hope this helps.
