Watch Guarantees

We provide either a full or limited warranty with our pre-owned Goods for a period of 12 months from the date of order in accordance with our Warranty terms and conditions. Please take the time to read and understand these terms. Our warranty doesn’t apply to new Goods which are typically covered by a third party manufacturer’s warranty.
If your watch is protected by a Limited Warranty, given its age, we do not guarantee that your watch will keep typical expected tolerances for timekeeping, and it is no longer suitable for use in wet environments or submersion in water.

Your Warranty will be registered to your current postal address. To ensure your Warranty remains valid, please make sure that you inform us of any changes to your contact details without delay, including your full name, postal address, email address and telephone number. If the goods are being purchased with the intention of being a gift, we would require the contact details of the intended recipient.

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 covered by our Limited Warranty, deviations in time-keeping or damage caused to your watch by water ingress 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.

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 United Kingdom, 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.

Please note that you must securely deliver the watch to us as advised and with adequate insurance, whether for the health check or to claim against your Warranty or for any other reason, which shall be your responsibility and at your cost unless stated otherwise. If you are based in the UK and have a valid claim against your Warranty, we will not make a charge for the postage and packaging costs of returning the watch to you (unless the work involves battery replacement only). We will charge for postage and packaging and all other taxes, fees and charges applied by customs incurred for work carried out under Warranty if you are based outside of the UK.

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. (by you or your representative).

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.

Your Warranty is personal to you and is non-transferable. If you wish to make a claim against your Warranty, please contact Charlie by calling 0330 1331483 or email charlie@theluxurywatchcompany.com.
