New Piece En-Route
I’ve been waiting for my Serica 6190 for a few weeks now, and it looks like I’ll have it today! Very excited! I’ll share some photos and thoughts here once I’ve worn it for a few days. Anyone else pre-order a 6190?

Very cool! It’s on my short list, excited to see yours!
First thoughts: Not a shred of disappointment. I’m really happy I bought this. It’s beautiful, unique, and extremely comfortable. The feel of the screw-down crown is very confidence inspiring. Too early to say for sure, but I feel like this will be a fixture in my collection for many years to come.

Congrats on your new Serica!! I’ve been eyeing this one for a while and might finally pull the trigger this week. Would love to see some photos if you get the chance 🧐🔥 Also, how was your experience with VAT taxes and shipping overseas?

Thanks! I was never charged VAT because I bought from their website. Their site says they have a VAT-refund form for the non-EU customers who make a purchase in their Paris boutique. I bought on the 25th of January. At that time, their site said expected shipping would be “mid February.” Mine shipped out Feb 23rd and was delivered on the 26th.
This is very helpful, thank you! I was under the impression you had to physically buy a watch from their boutique in Paris to receive the VAT refund so this is great news.
