Terms of sale

Disclaimer

Please note that you the customer are buying a vintage watch and that this carries a risk. Unless serviced by us it is in many cases unknown what the previous owner has done with the watch. Do not forget that a watch is actually an engine (even quartz movements) that runs 24 hours a day and may need service. Do not take vintage watches showering, swimming or sporting unless tested and certified by a watchmaker. Unless this fact is specifically mentioned in the invoice or the online service description, according to the terms of the Return & refund policy Vintageseiko.nl is not liable for damages due to inappropriate use after the watch has been delivered and/or received. Any reduction in value as a result is deducted from any refunds if the return policy is invoked.

Reservation policy

Buy an incoming watch and beat everyone to it! For customers who trust Vintageseiko.nl by reputation, this can be a great deal. Your payment (in full) will be put in escrow. Payment will be refunded if and when the watch needs more work than estimated, which rarely happens, and current pricing is no longer feasible. It will however remain in this section for you to renew your reservation if you so desire.

Please keep in mind that preferred and trusted customers, having made purchases regularly, can reserve watches even when no payment has been made yet. In that case the watch will be marked as Sold out. As always, just talk to us, it alway helps you to get your watch..

Sales will be final once the watch is shipped to you - upon your approval - under terms of sale
