If it’s bought from IH Germany and shipped to the US, there will DEFINITELY be a tariff.

[pechelman]

That's not my understanding, could you provide the source?

Quick research shows that this form may be needed.
It's important to state that the item is 100% made in the US (which it is) and also that it has not been modified or increased in value by anything done overseas.

Hmmm, truthfully, I don’t know—and I’m willing to bet neither do the US customs agents

[Go For Chill]

@pechelman That’s my understanding as well. It’s all based on country of manufacture. You can buy Naked and Famous jeans tariff free because they are made in Canada, but my mug I got from them cost me an extra $20 because it was made in an Asia. Both ship from their Toronto warehouse.

That was an unpleasant letter to get from the shipper a month later.

I purchased a GA glasses loop from IH Germany for 489 EUR to the USA. I did not pay any tariffs or additional fees. The purchase was made last month.

[sabergirl]

Great! I stand corrected.

@Kasi yeah IHG wasn't really on my radar as i don't fancy paying double VAT from both germany and UK.. since IHG doesn't offer the removal of germany VAT if sending to the UK

[kojimastreets]

Hadn’t thought of the country of origin. I definitely got hit with a tariff when I picked up an IHE-51-IND from them last month but that is def not produced in the US

When ring spring was better with logo on.
They don’t make it like that anymore.

[dirtyframer]

Is there an adapter/connector that can get a spring ring to lay flat with a curb chain C ?

[pechelman]

@dirtyframer I bet one of those noodle connectors on a clip 8 keychain clip would do the trick but I'm not sure I've ever seen them sold separately. Maybe you could email to ask? Or if they'd sell you a single link from something like a 22 chain?

One of the gator heads would also maybe work if it fits a c curb.

Just bought a model 2a and is it me or does the V4 look a lot smaller than previous versions? For reference I’m a 15cm wrist and bought 16 link bracelet. It fits snuggly but can fit one finger in so assuming this is the perfect size.

Also I wore this for not even 10 minutes to try on and slipped it back in the bag it came with for a week and it’s darkened quite a bit just in the bag. Is that supposed to happen?

[noescapin]

@dirtyframer what’s your plan - elongate the curb chain? Looking for something similar

[seawolf]

@deek has this ever happened for you with silver in the past? Some people have different body chemistry that can react to certain metals.
