Important Notice Concerning Watches:
Except as expressly set forth in the Conditions of Sale, all watches are sold "as is." Please examine all watches carefully. It is the responsibility of the prospective bidder or the bidder's agent to determine the condition of watches prior to purchase.
Although we endeavor to mention in our description's significant defects, needed repairs, absent stones and the like, WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE DESCRIPTIONS ARE COMPREHENSIVE. We do not warrant any watch to be in good working order or warrant the accuracy of any watch function such as timekeeping, chronograph, calendar, repeating or register. Any repairs that might be required are the responsibility of the purchaser.
Condition reports, which contain more information than the catalog descriptions, are available upon request. These reports are statements of opinion based on visual inspection and may not include all defects or replacements or those that would be revealed by disassembly of the watch. To ensure timely receipt of the report, please email your request at least two days prior to the sale date.
Please note that Bonhams does not warrant that any component watch part is original or that watch cases have not been altered or replaced, as virtually all pre-owned watches may have been previously repaired and could include replacement parts. A manufacturer's certificate of authenticity is not available unless described in the catalog description of a lot, and a manufacturer's refusal to service or repair a timepiece due to the presence of replacement parts shall not constitute grounds to rescind a sale.
Case screw-backs may have been loosened for examination and viewing by Bonhams and should be resealed by purchasers for water resistance.
