If the product being purchased with the intention of being a gift, we require the contact details of the intended recipient within 30 days of purchase. Transfer of warranty can only be performed once per watch. Any information submitted after that will invalidate transfer of warranty. Note, that warranty can only be held by one person. Any product that has been gifted and warranty successfully transfered to recipient does not longer apply to the original customer. Warranty period starts on the day of purchase.
The warranty does not cover theft or loss of your watch, normal wear-and-tear, water damage caused to your watch by accidents, mishandling, mistreatment, negligence, (including, without limitation, damage caused by failure to follow manufacturer and/or our instructions). In particular, wear of the watch strap, glass, clasp and cosmetic damage are not covered by our warranty. If your watch is returned to us due to a valid claim against our warranty whilst it is still protected by the manufacturer warranty, we reserve the right to proceed with the works through the manufacturer warranty in the first instance. Your warranty will be invalidated in the event that a third party carries out any tests or work on your watch (including, without limitation, dismantling your watch to carry out an inspection) without our prior knowledge and consent. No warranty is provided for failures resulting from misusage by the wearer such as unauthorized disassembly or modification of the watch. Damage to the watch caused by accidental falls, physical and natrural forces, chemicals och other types of wear not associated with responsible usage of the watch. Personal faults or third party misusage inducing damage such as cracks, scratches or damage to peripheral components are not covered by warranty.
We have the final decision on all claims against our warranty. If any dispute arises in connection with the warranty, we reserve the right to instruct an independent third party watchmaker nominated by us to determine the issues in dispute, though are under no obligation to do so. The conclusion in the report to be provided by the third party will be binding as between the parties. Please note that the recommendations of the manufacturer are expressly excluded for the purposes of our warranty, where such recommendations conflict with our advice. If you are based outside of the European Union, you may have to pay import duty or other taxes, fees and charges applied by customs or other authorities of your country for work done under warranty, particularly if you do not correctly complete the relevant declarations.

Process of delivery
Delivery of the watch will be completed when we deliver the watch to the address given in your order or when the watch is collected from us. If you arrange for another courier to collect the watch, delivery will be completed when the watch is collected from us. This means that we will not be responsible if the watch is lost or damaged in the course of transit. The watch will be your responsibility from the completion of delivery. When you enter into a finance agreement, the date of purchase means the date we receive the final balance payment in full and cleared funds from the finance company.
Water resistance and behaviour
All our watches are tested prior to sale to ensure that the advertised water resistance is accurate. You acknowledge and accept that we will not replace seals and/or gaskets or other parts if the Watch passes our tests before dispatch. Where your watch is certified as water resistant its water-resistance is ensured by a series of seals. Before any contact with water, it is essential to ensure that the crown and pushers of your watch are pushed in or screwed down, depending on model. When your watch is under water, do not activate any possible push-pieces for chronograph functions, the minute-repeater or the second time zone. After swimming, make sure to rinse your water-resistant watch in fresh water so as to neutralise the potentially corrosive effects of sea-water or chlorine. The water-resistance seals of your certified water resistant watch undergo natural deterioration due to ageing. It is therefore recommended that you have a regular water-resistance check performed once every year if your watch is worn during sporting activities or frequently comes into contact with water, or once every two years when worn in normal conditions. Never try and open the case yourself. In the event of water or condensation appearing under the glass, take the watch as quickly as possible to an authorized maintenance centre to prevent further damage. Failure to succeed those instructions will void warranty in case of water damge to your timepiece in accordance with negligence of proper usage.
Bracelets
Our watch bracelets will be deliverd in original factory settings. Where a watch is advertised as having intact seals, the bracelet will not be adjusted. If your size exceeds our standard size, extra links may be supplied at your cost or at our discretion. If no bracelet size is given, additional parts os customization of bracelet or parts of bracelet will be chargable.

We are under a legal duty to supply you with products that are in conformity with the contract. As a customer you are responsible for inspecting the product as soon as practicable after delivery and you must inform us immediately if the products are faulty or not as described upon delivery. You must take responsibly care of the product and you must return any products that are Faulty (including paperwork, links, user manual, service papers and box as applicable) promptly and within 14 days of advising us of the relevant faulty product.
