Terms of Sale

Effective August 2026

These terms apply to purchases made directly through Patina Horology. Purchases made through eBay are subject to eBay's applicable terms and policies.

Vintage Watches

Every watch offered through Patina has been personally restored and mechanically serviced. Vintage watches naturally show age, wear, patina, prior maintenance, and manufacturing variation. I make every effort to describe and photograph each watch accurately.

Every watch is guaranteed to be authentic. Originality is preserved wherever practical. Routine service components—including crystals, gaskets, crowns or crown components, mainsprings, straps, and bracelets—may be replaced as necessary and may not always be individually identified. Other known material replacement parts will be disclosed in the listing.

Mechanical Guarantee

Every watch includes the Patina Horology One-Year Mechanical Guarantee. Its terms and exclusions are incorporated into these Terms of Sale.

Orders & Payment

Website payments are processed through Stripe. Alternative payment arrangements may be available by contacting me. Orders may be cancelled and refunded before shipment due to listing or pricing errors, suspected fraud, simultaneous sale, or discovery of a problem with the watch.
