How are watches packaged for shipping?

We take great care in packaging your watch for safe transit. Each watch is wrapped in protective material and secured in its original box (if available) or our premium branded watch box. This is then placed in a sturdy outer box with additional cushioning material to absorb any impact during transit. The package is sealed with tamper-evident tape and labeled discreetly for security reasons.

Returns & Refunds

We offer a 14-day return policy for all our watches. If you're not completely satisfied with your purchase, you can return it in its original condition, unworn, with all tags and packaging intact. Please note that the customer is responsible for return shipping costs unless the item was received damaged or incorrectly described.

How long does it take to process a refund?

+

Once we receive your returned item, our team will inspect it to ensure it's in its original condition. Refunds are typically processed within 3-5 business days after inspection. The time it takes for the refund to appear in your account depends on your payment method and financial institution but generally takes an additional 5-10 business days.

Can I exchange my watch for a different model?

Claims for damaged items must be made within 48 hours of delivery to ensure proper handling.

Can I return a customized or special order watch?

+

Custom orders and special requests are generally not returnable or refundable because they are sourced or modified specifically for you. However, if a custom or special order item arrives with defects or doesn't match the agreed-upon specifications, we'll work with you to resolve the issue through repair, replacement, or refund as appropriate.

Care & Maintenance

How often should I service my watch?

+

We generally recommend servicing mechanical watches every 3-5 years to ensure optimal performance and longevity. However, this can vary depending on the specific model, age, and how frequently the watch is worn. If you notice any irregularities in timekeeping or functionality, it's best to have your watch professionally checked sooner.

How should I clean my watch?

+

For regular cleaning, gently wipe your watch with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove dirt and fingerprints. For metal bracelets, you can use a soft toothbrush with mild soap and water to clean between the links, ensuring first that the watch case is properly sealed. Avoid using chemicals as they can damage watch finishes. Leather straps should be kept dry and cleaned with a specialized leather cleaner.

How should I store my watch when not in use?

+

Store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ideally, use a watch box or the original presentation box. For automatic watches that aren't worn regularly, consider using a watch winder to keep them running and properly lubricated. If storing for an extended period, it's best to have the watch serviced before storage and again before regular use.

Is my watch water-resistant?

+

Water resistance varies significantly between watch models. Your specific watch's water resistance rating will be indicated in the product description. Remember that water resistance can diminish over time and should be tested annually if you regularly expose your watch to water. Vintage watches, even those originally designed to be water-resistant, should generally be kept away from water unless they have been recently pressure tested.

Here's a general guide to water resistance ratings:

  • 30m/3 bar: Splash resistant but not suitable for swimming
  • 50m/5 bar: Suitable for swimming but not diving
  • 100m/10 bar: Suitable for recreational swimming and snorkeling
  • 200m/20 bar: Suitable for recreational diving
  • 300m+ / 30+ bar: Professional diving watches

Do you offer servicing for watches purchased elsewhere?

+

Yes, our watchmaking team provides servicing for most luxury watch brands, regardless of where the watch was purchased. Our services range from basic maintenance to complex repairs and restoration. Please contact us for a quote, providing details about your watch's brand, model, and the service needed or issues experienced.

If you're looking for a particular watch, please contact us with as many details as possible, and we'll do our best to source it for you.

How can I verify the authenticity of a watch I already own?

+

We offer authentication services for watches you already own. Our experts can examine your watch and provide a detailed report on its authenticity and condition. This service requires you to send us the watch or bring it to our showroom for inspection.
