Great News!!

It only took 41 days for the deep blue diver to reach Estonia (priority mail no less)! Now it needs to sit in customs for 7 days and i'm just praying when Kuldar opens the package there is still a watch in it!! Love to help a brother out but this has been quite taxing on the both of us!!

Good to hear!

Well, the Estonians have never liked rushin'

Good work Trev!

Cool, I am glad it made it!!

Great job so far. I'm pulling for you guys.

VERY good to hear Trevor ! That DOES sound like a long time
for a package to arrive somewhere !..I've never shipped anything
that far before. Thanks for shedding some light on what it can be
like to ship overseas or maybe even recieve a package from over-
seas too !

Great news, I am sure Kuldar will totally appriciate it.

I actually get that one. Good to hear the package has finally shown up.

Great job Trevor. Let's have some faith in the Estonian Postal Service! Geez!

Good one!!

Maybe Markko Martin can get it quickly from Customs to Kuldar (Kuldar should know who Markko is).

I know you're a race fan Tim, is Markko Martin the Mark Martin of Estonia?

Sort of, Mark. Markko is a world class rally driver, (IMHO, much more talent and balls needed than a NASCoT driver) and at one time was pretty much (sure he still is) an Estonian national hero.

Tee Hee! Good one Mr. Boscoe.

Trevor, that is fantastic news. As you mentioned it sure would be nice if the box arrived with the watch in it. That would have me a little worried.

I was just struck by the similarity in name. Martin seems an odd name for an Estonian, maybe its just me but seems the name is missing a few vowels.

(not trying to hijack the thread, just a cool example of the kids ability. I'm done)

interesting that he is not posting here though

Hi guys, great news at least "Well, the Estonians have never liked rushin" - how do you know that about Estonians? Actually the whole Soviet Union had so many jokes about estonians beeing very slow, slowest in the world
Incredible that you know Marko Martin (name is Märtin, it's pronounced like "a" in word cat), he was a great driver, sad that his career ended so sadly, but here he's still a nationa hero.

thank you all for the support and I hope that watch will be soon released from customs, so I can post some wristshots.

Kuldar

I can't believe it's not there yet. I lost track of this delivery and thought it was probably
there already. I bet Kuldar is tweaking now that he knows it is SOOOO close.


I hope it arrives and is intact.

and the wait is not over, now the customs think, that they cought a big fish, at least Rolex or something and weirdest and funniest thing is, that poor Trevor has to write them, how much does it cost and it's a present. I'm confused, after 1,5 month delivery and those bureucrats are so arrogant If you have time, take Franz Kafka "The Trial" and you should have pretty good imagination about this bureucracy here. In the future I better do all postal services through neighbouring countries

That's really pitiful Kuldar! I can't believe they would hold up a watch in customs for that long! Well I hope you receive it soon and enjoy the hell out of it!

I had the same thing happen in Canada. Not kidding.
I suspect my Japan Ecodrive diver is experiencing a similar thorough exam in USA

Good to hear Trevor, I wondered whatever happened with that watch. Hopefully he gets it soon.


On another note, did Falcon actually write "Tee-Hee"?
