2 Year Limited Warranty

  • Your Nacre warranty is valid for your purchase from nacrewatches.com and is guaranteed free from any manufacturing defects for two years from the date of purchase. Our warranty includes the watch movement and battery replacement. The Nacre warranty does not cover the watch case, crown and stem, crystal and glass, nacre pearls, finishes, damage caused by extreme wear and tear, or damage sustained under conditions exceeding water resistance. This two year limited warranty does not cover any damage or defects due to intentional or accidental misuse or abuse, loss, or theft. Upon expiration of the warranty period, any repairs will be subject to a service charge.

    Improper repair or warranty service performed by someone other than Nacre voids this warranty.

    All shipping and handling costs in connection with warranty service are the responsibility of the customer.

    If any implied warranty, including without limitation any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, lasts longer than this two year express warranty, the implied warranty is limited to the two year period of this warranty.
