- Depending on the watch and after inquiry, we can accept instalments for up to 3 months (at 0% interest) with an immediate down payment of 33.3% of the total sale price. Failing to pay the full price in time (within 90 days) results in loss of the down payment and the watch(es) will be re-listed for sale.
- All watches remain our property until the watches are paid in full.
- The watches are shipped after reception of the full payment.
Shipping and Taxes
- International priority registered shipping is included in the sale price (please provide a phone number, it will only be shared with the postal service and then removed from all files).
- If wanted we can ship by courier (DHL Express) at cost (please provide a phone number, it will only be shared with carrier and then removed from all files).
- We pack carefully and all watches are tested prior to sending.
- We can not be made responsible for any lost or damaged watches during transit.
- Please inquire locally concerning any custom taxes (import duties) or other taxes (for example VAT) for your country. Latter costs are your responsibility and are not included in the sale price.
- Buyers resident in Switzerland don’t pay VAT, as we are not professional dealers.
The Fine Print
- The precision of all watches for sale is within acceptable parameters for our personal use at the time of shipping. However, the service history of the watches must be considered unknown and no mechanical guarantee can be given due to the unpredictability of the watch-movement-behaviour over time. We suggest to have the watches serviced at buyers expense and/or please refer to the individual service suggestions.
- If available, all model and serial numbers (movement and case) are disclosed in full to allow for complete traceability of the watch and avoid subsequent omission of modifications.
- All pictures and text on this site are our copyright (except where taken from elsewhere, these are then referenced). It is not allowed to use any of them/it without our permission, as we need to know purpose and context of their/its use. To get permission (for free of course) to use pictures and/or text, please contact us.
