INTERNATIONAL GUARANTEE FOR WATCHES. WHAT IS THIS AND HOW IT WORKS.

Everyone in his life at least once bought a watch or thought about buying them. Of course, when buying cheap accessories, we rarely worry about how long they will work, and quite another thing, when it is an expensive product, worth several thousand and sometimes several tens of thousands. In this case, the important issue is the warranty. In this article, we will talk about what an international guarantee is and what it represents.

International warranty

When you buy a watch of a foreign brand, you must provide you with an international guarantee. It covers all costs in case of any defects, breakdowns and other problems with the accessory that may arise during the time specified in the warranty.

What most often covers the warranty?

The international guarantee basically covers only cases of the presence of a manufacturing defect. So, if the watch suddenly stopped working or began to go not exactly, but it did not happen through your fault, you can use the warranty service.

Before you buy an accessory, it is recommended that you carefully read the conditions under which you can use the warranty. Each manufacturer can change them at will. But most often the requirements remain as follows:

g warranty must be attached warranty booklet. In it, the dealer or representative of the licensed boutique in which the accessory was purchased must necessarily sign and indicate the date when the watch was purchased. The only subject to the availability of these essential elements will they provide you with a warranty repair or other type of necessary maintenance service;

during production, each expensive accessory is assigned a serial number. To provide a guarantee, this number is always checked for compliance with the one specified in the documents. So during the warranty period, make sure that it does not get stuck and looks the same.

If one of the conditions is violated, you are unlikely to provide warranty support.

What does the warranty not cover?

If you have problems with the clock, you need to know in advance when the warranty will be rejected. The first reason for this is repairing during the warranty period, which was not held at the manufacturer’s official service center.

Also, the warranty repair will be denied to you if due to the neglect of the accessory, the damage was caused. For example, if during the fall the mechanisms of the watch or the elements of the case, including the glass, were damaged.

All damages acquired due to improper handling of the watch are not covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Such problems will have to be solved at their own expense.

What is the difference guaranty its warranty?

Very often when buying a watch you can come across two words like “guaranty and warranty”. Both of these words are translated as "guarantee", but in fact, they have different meanings.

If you come across the word "warranty" it means that you are buying a watch for which the warranty period is 1 year. Such a guarantee is usually issued for trouble-free and safe use.

As for the "guaranty" - this is a more serious obligation given directly by the manufacturer. Such products usually not only have a guarantee of uninterrupted and safe operation of watches, but also additional warranty cards and papers. With this, the manufacturer, as it were, says that he takes responsibility for the fact that you will definitely be satisfied with your purchase.
