In the watch descriptions, the phrase “it works” means that the watch is functioning at the time of listing. Since collector’s watches typically have delicate and complex mechanisms, the buyer is responsible for any general servicing, inspection, battery replacement, adjustment, or repair that may be necessary. We do not guarantee the perfect functioning of any watch. Nor do we guarantee their water resistance, regardless of the manufacturer’s specifications or the model. All photographs of our watches are original and were taken by our photographers; that is, we do not use stock photography, and therefore the photographs are considered part of the listing.
