Buy Back Policy

There will come a time when you want or need to sell one of the watches that you purchased here. If it's going to a fellow collector or someone who will genuinely appreciate it, then that's fine, but if you're consigning it to an auction house or selling it to your local jeweler or gold hog it will almost certainly end up on eBay in pieces with the case melted down.


Instead of the watch being parted out for the bottom feeders to pick over, we will gladly buy the watch back from you, less 10% and the cost of a COA, plus anything else needed to return the piece to the condition in which you originally bought it.

Shipping

Cost

All watches ship free to anywhere in America, including Alaska and Hawaii, with tracking.

Storage chests, display domes, shelf display stands and parts movements ship boxed with tracking.

Lanyards, chains, fobs, and all leather items are shipped via bulk media rate with no tracking.

We do not ship internationally. Domestic sales only.

Carriers

All watches are shipped via the USPS Ground Advantage option which includes tracking, using a 5x5x5-inch carboard box that will fit most mailboxes. We do not offer any other method such as Registered or Next Day, or use any other carrier like FedEx, UPS or DHL. If you paid with PayPal, the item will be shipped to the address provided by them, unless you tell us differently.

Insurance

Insurance is your option in either direction, but you are responsible for the extra cost. Having shipped hundreds of watches we can tell you that the US Postal Service very seldom loses one, and that there is something to be said for flying under the radar in a plain brown box.

Damage and Loss

As mentioned above, every watch is boxed with plenty of padding and shipped to your specified address with tracking, but if the watch arrives damaged or gets lost in transit it is entirely up to you to open a claim, prove its value and seek restitution from the USPS.
