Posting watch to Hong Kong

Hi everyone,

Apologies if this has been covered before but I am wishing to send my two tone Sub to Michael Young in Hong Kong of whom I have read some very good reviews in this very forum. I live in the UK and wondered if anyone can recommend the best way to ship my watch to him whilst making sure the value is covered. Any recommendations greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Yes but I'd like him to service the watch at the same time...

Take the watch head to an RSC for servicing and just send the bracelet to Michael. I sent my bracelet via FedEx. Michael Young does very good work. You'll be impressed.

I sent my jubilee last week to Michael via the post office standard signed for overseas service, I think it cost about £15 for the basic £500 covered and obviously then there were on cost stages for more coverage.
It got to Hong Kong in 3 days and took the same amount of time for Michael to pick it up from his post office

Thanks for the replies. I just noticed that Michael does watch servicing too and that his prices seemed cheap. Thought I'd get both done at the same time rather than pay RSC prices. Not comfortable sending a £4k watch with only £1k coverage so maybe bracelet only is the way to go.
