Amazon.com Global. Yes - at time of checkout. If I'm lucky, I'll get an e-mail in 1-2 months that customs duty was less than estimated and get a refund

I ordered one from Global service too but the Aramex made me cry.

Photographed a couple of my very favorite watches...
The Casio MDV106-1A
Awesome pics!! Ordered one for myself from eBay using Shop&Ship today! Don't know why I hadn't gotten one for myself for so long!
I am also looking for the Citizen Excalibur (full metal strap) but it's not available anywhere! :/
Posting a pic of one of my favorites - Old pic so ignore the date (I have date OCD otherwise!):

I bought aniStrap leather one from Aliexpress. It comes with a deployant butterfly clasp. This is my third such strap purchase from them. Ever since I have used the iStrap straps with the deployant clasps, I have fallen in love with leather straps!

It will look good on MDV 106 because previous one is a rubber strap

^^Welcome to watch shopping experience in India
Not new to the experience... Just that I never buy watches priced this low and hence expected duty exemption! I always end up paying through my nose when importing my other more expensive watches!
Anyway, got the watch delivered!

Its raining watches at my place! Got my Vostok Komandirskie also delivered today! No customs! Meranom is amazing and Dmitry is a real nice guy to deal with! As for the watch, its built to survive a nuke (typical Russian!) but has a pathetic strap (I already knew that when buying!) that I will replace with an aftermarket strap in any case!

^^OOh I am eyeing an Vostok since long, reluctant only fearing the Customs.
So were you lucky this time or does Meranom undervalue and ship?[DOUBLEPOST=1530297495][/DOUBLEPOST]

You can ask Dmitry and he will undervalue and ship. He is available on Whatsapp (his number is there on Meranom's wesbite). I have spoken to him and he said he would undervalue it. What I fear is, if the Customs Department open the shipment and check then it might get slapped with duty. I'm also thinking about ordering a Vostok soon.
