Information - Purchase

  • WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PRE-OWNED AND VINTAGE?

      The main difference between pre-owned and vintage is the age of the watch. A vintage watch is generally older than 25 years. A pre-owned watch is therefore younger than 25 years, thus manufactured in the late 90s and onwards. Note that there are exceptions where an update of a model took place right on the cusp between vintage and pre-owned and thus the definition of pre-owned can vary a couple of years depending on the model and reference.

  • HOW DO WE DEFINE THE CONDITION?

      To help you with your purchase, we have tried to make a simplified model of both the aesthetic and functional condition of the watch, see the table here. However, we do not sell watches that have not been tested and always provide a minimum 12-month warranty (does not apply to new watches). More information about watch condition is provided in the product description on each watch. Please note that there are two different tables to distinguish between watches we have categorised as pre-owned and vintage. Read more about the categorisation here.

  • HOW DO I KNOW THE WATCH IS AUTHENTIC?

      All watches sold by us are inspected by experts to ensure condition and authenticity so we can guarantee you that you receive an authentic watch that will last a long time. We ensure that the watches have never been reported stolen, so that you can feel secure with your investment.

  • DO I HAVE WARRANTY ON THE WATCH I PURCHASE?

      Yes, the watches we sell include at least 12 months warranty. In addition to this, newer watches may have the remaining warranty issued by the manufacturer. Read more about our warranty and our terms & conditions here.

  • HOW IS MY WATCH SHIPPED?

      Your watch is usually sent 1-3 business days after purchase, with fully insured delivery.

  • CAN I CANCEL/RETURN MY PURCHASE?

      Yes, we offer a 14-day return policy, active from the day the parcel is received.

  • WHICH PAYMENT METHODS ARE ACCEPTED?

      We accept several payment methods, whether you want to pay immediately or over time, you can find an option that suits you best.

Never shopped before so was a bit wary. I bought an item and amazingly got it within 2 days. Im just sorry it did not fit and they didn't have an alternate size. Return policy also seamless. Definitely will shop with Care of Carl again.
