IWC Vintage Pilot

Any Kiwi's out here? I need some help.
I just bought a watch in Auckland New Zealand, problem is we need to find a shipper or a insurance company that will insure the shipment to the states. I am looking to insure it for about $7000 USD. Any info would be great. Thanks

For my 3rd watch, I'm interested in the AP RO 15450- either the SS or RG model.For me there is a lot to like about the AP RO, the design (the SS model looks fantastic and I love the metal bracelet), the fact that it's rare, and most importantly (this will sound silly)- I love the back of the watch. I love the clear caseback- when I was a kid, I owned a translucent swatch, I thought it was an amazing thing to see the inside of a watch. Then when I saw my first Patek Calatrava, I was blown away at the clear caseback and the beauty of its movement. I've been obsessed with getting a watch with a clear caseback to showcase the beautiful movement and from what I've seen, the 3120 is gorgeous and the gold rotor is stunning. I love it. Mandatory pics... I'm really liking the 15450. Either SS or the RG with brown strap. So I'm looking into these watches and am planning to buy one and keep it for life. I've got a few questions about them.1) Seems like the metal bracelets on the RO are ju

One Rolex (or not?), used or new, 10k budget
What's the answer? Currently enjoying the BLNR, on the waiting list for the SS BLRO (and a Zenith Defy 21 on a bracelet). Been debating a WG or YG Day Date 18038/9...I love gold but hate scratches- that's why I don't have one yet.Daily wearer, none of that safe nonsense. And obviously this is a subjective thread, so you don't have to respond with the standard whatever you like the most! quote. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Ready for replacements. Opinions needed.

However, I am also tempted with a black dial hesalite speedy, which I would probably wear on a black rubber strap.I will be replacing the Milgauss. I am looking for good condition with box and papers, but pre owned prices in the UK seem very high in comparison to new AD price.I am back on a list for the Hulk, from th
