Return Policy
Terms & Conditions Privacy Policy Shipping & Payment Info Return Policy
At The Watch Link, we provide high-grade horological components and accessories. Due to the precision nature of our products and the complexities of international trade, our return policy is as follows:
1. UK & EU Returns
For customers within the United Kingdom and the European Union, you may request a return within 14 days of delivery, provided that:
- Factory Condition: The item is strictly unused, unworn, and in its original, factory-sealed packaging.
- Fitment: The item has not been fitted to a watch. Once a strap has been bent, fitted to a lug, or has had protective films/tags removed, it is legally considered “used” and is ineligible for return.
2. International Returns (Outside UK & EU)
All sales to destinations outside the UK and EU (including the USA) are final.
- We do not accept returns or exchanges for international orders for “change of mind,” fitment issues, or aesthetic preferences.
- Returns from these regions are only permitted if the item is proven to be technically faulty or the incorrect item was dispatched.
- By completing a purchase for delivery outside the UK/EU, the buyer acknowledges that the item is non-returnable.
3. Faulty Items
If you believe your item is faulty:
- You must contact us at Info@TheWatchLink.com within 48 hours of delivery.
- You must provide clear, high-resolution photographs of the fault.
- If a fault is verified, we will provide a replacement or a full refund including return shipping costs.
4. Non-Returnable Items
Regardless of location, the following are strictly non-returnable:
- Special Orders: Items sourced specifically for a client request (e.g. Omega-specific straps).
- Custom/Personalised Parts: Any item modified or made to order.
5. Refund Process
Approved returns are processed within 7 business days of receipt and inspection.
- Original shipping costs and non-recoverable payment processing fees are non-refundable for “change of mind” returns.
- Items returned in sub-standard condition or showing signs of fitment will be subject to a 100% restocking fee (refusal of refund).
