You can try vintage rolex forum.
Alot of ppl sell vintage parts there.
As usual, do your due diligence before committing.

RSC will do that yes.
Maybe you can also try uncle CFK... I believe you are still in good terms with him.
He can work magic sometimes, depending on mood of course... hahahaha

Are they taxable? Our customs can be a royal pain in the behind.

i think while the package get inspected by custom. I would required to pay before they will release the item. However this is purely my speculations, will know in a couple weeks time !

Do be careful with rolex parts from ebay... most of them are "aftermarket"
Read the descriptions carefully and slowly...

In future u can pay at bank, or open account with courier company... They for u, u pay them before delivery

It's bcom troublesome and not worth buying online

Spore also hardly ppl buy watches from other country for same reason
