What a waste of paper, space, and resources for just one little tool 🤦… Shipped free via express UPS and tracked from Germany to Barcelona… totaling 10€!! 🤨 It was too good not to order this little TAG Heuer souvenir 😉 And the red envelope is really nice 👍


Although they will not have obtained a great benefit with this sale! 😁

How surprised would an unwitting person be if he/she got this thinking it was something expensive seeing the security tape used, lol.

Now I can see there are some “biases” in TH’s packaging 😗😗

Did your package came from Germany sir @Albert-AMG ? Mine came directly Switzerland 😀

Yes, from Germany. This is the address where the package came from:


Perhaps a logistics center in Germany for shipments within Europe, to avoid customs fees

I see now. Thanks for the explanation sir 👍

It might be suspicious if the sender is from TAG Heuer and came with a small package 😉 (and scrutinize more for a watch) So a bigger box was used ? Reverse psych 😗😗

So, if it is not due to customs taxes on shipments to Europe, I can no longer think of an explanation for some shipments being made from Switzerland and others from Germany other than purely logistical issues 😕

The shipping kit to send your watch for repair, which contains the grey TH travel case, is packaged in a box barely larger than the case itself so this is hilarious.

We must have depleted the stock in La-Chaux-de-Fonds early on. Now they’re scraping the rests remaining in other
LVMH logistical centers 😁

I received this Bremont springbar tool with a Bremont watch (my Mrs bought me one too😕)
Although I've been told it isn't the pukka 6767 Bergeon I can't tell the difference.
The knurling is exactly same as are the dimensions and most importantly the forks.

I just received a confirmation of receipt yesterday. I wonder what they'll do. Send a new one or refund my 10 euros. Mine came directly from Chauds-des-Fonds.
