Additional information

At ChronoTimepieces, we take great pride in the quality and authenticity of our watches.

Every watch undergoes a thorough inspection process to ensure that it is in fully-authentic condition, both externally and internally. This includes checking all components for authenticity and functionality, as well as servicing and testing where needed.
All of our modern watches are carefully inspected and serviced where needed to ensure that they are in excellent condition and ready to be worn and enjoyed for many years to come. We only source our from reputable dealers, private sellers and manufacturers and we take great care to ensure that they are authentic, with non-questinable origins and have not been tampered with in any way.

For our vintage watches, we go above and beyond to ensure that they are in excellent condition and have not been tampered with over the years. We check each vintage watch against our database of original examples to ensure that no components have been replaced or tampered with, and we try our best to only use OEM parts for servicing.
We understand that many vintage watches sold online have been re-dialed, overpolished, or have movement parts with questionable origins, so we are committed to upholding the highest standards of authenticity and quality in our vintage watches. If there are any exceptions to this, we will always disclose them in the descriptive text for the respective timepiece.

In addition to our commitment to authenticity, we also offer a 1-year warranty on all of our watches. This gives you peace of mind and confidence in your purchase, knowing that if any issues arise within the first year after purchase, we will be happy to repair or replace the watch.
