Please Note
Authenticity
Our watches and products have been thoroughly inspected and validated by our watchmaker, who holds a Japanese government-issued watchmaker license (時計修理技能士1級). To the best of our knowledge, all watches and accessories are authentic and retain their original parts (including original untouched / un-repainted dial), unless explicitly stated otherwise in the product description.
Having said that, please kindly note that it is common practice for Japanese watchmakers to use third-party parts during repairs if original parts are unavailable from the manufacturer, especially for watches over 50 years old that may have gone through multiple watchmakers during their lifetime.
Vintage watch collecting, unlike acquiring modern timepieces, inherently involves a degree of uncertainty. Both research and personal experience play crucial roles in this journey. If doubts persist even after thorough research, we always advise our friends and clients to refrain from making a purchase.
After all, unless one is completely confident in their decision, any lingering doubt can diminish the joy of owning these timepieces—which would be a great pity.
Size
Vintage watches are generally smaller than modern watches. Although our measurements are approximate, they provide a good indicator for the buyer to assess whether the smaller size will be an issue.
Servicing
If a watch is not specifically indicated as "Serviced", we do not have its service history and cannot guarantee its accuracy. We highly recommend it to be serviced by a watchmaker for regular use.
Accuracy
The accuracy indicated in the Condition section is based only on a 12-hour timegrapher test in one position (movement up or dial up). This serves as a reference to help the buyer understand the condition of the movement. We cannot guarantee its actual accuracy, and based on our experience, real-world performance may vary.
Original Accessory
Watch does not included original bracelet / strap / buckle / box / paper unless specifically stated.
