Are these shipping from NJ? I just got tracking for something, but I'm not sure what.

Hoppy and Brice.... your watches were just packaged up. Shipping out on Friday.

I ship from Connecticut. Most people in the US should have their watch in 2-3 days from the day shipped.

It arrived in KL but I got a notice from the customs and I have to pay duties (about $30 which includes the fee from the post office to act as my agent), which is annoying. That said, my tuna that was more expensive got thru a few weeks back with no duties, so it's a bit of a crap shoot. Gonna be delivered next week I suspect

Sorry, false alarm - the above situation is for an Orient King Master Reissue I recently ordered not for the Karlskrona which USPS now tells me has actually just left New York for KL
