These terms tell you who we are, how we will provide introductions to sellers to you, how you and we may change or end the contract, what to do if there is a problem and other important information.

(c) Are you a business customer or a consumer? In some areas you will have different rights under these terms depending on whether you are a business or consumer. You are a consumer if:

(i) You are an individual.

(ii) You are buying products wholly or mainly for your personal use (not for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession).

Provisions specific to consumers only are Underlined and those specific to businesses only are in Bold Italic.

(d) If you are a business customer this is our entire agreement with you. If you are a business customer these terms constitute the entire agreement between us in relation to your purchase. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any statement, promise, representation, assurance or warranty made or given by or on behalf of us which is not set out in these terms and that you shall have no claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation based on any statement in this agreement.

Information about us

(f) How we may contact you. If we need to contact you, we will do so by telephone or by writing to you at the email address or postal address you provided to us in your enquiry through our website.

(g) "Writing" includes emails. When we use the words "writing" or "written" in these terms, this includes emails.

1. Our contract with you

1.1 How we will accept your enquiry. Our acceptance of your enquiry will take place when we email you to accept it, at which point a contract will come into existence between you and us. We will then put your listing live on our website for retailers and individual sellers to view.

1.2 If we cannot accept your enquiry. If we are unable to accept your enquiry, we will inform you of this in writing.

2. Your rights to make changes

If you wish to make a change to the watch(es) contained in your enquiry then please contact us as soon as possible. We will let you know if the change to the listing is possible. If it is possible, we will let you know about any changes to the listing which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change.

3. How the introduction process works

3.1 Once we have all the necessary information from you in respect of your enquiry, a member of our team will review it with an aim of putting it live within 24 hours.

3.2 Once you have received an offer from a retailer or individual seller to sell you a watch which matches your enquiry that you would like to accept you can click the accept button. This will notify the retailer or individual seller that you would like to proceed and share your contact details with them in order to be able to move forwards.

3.3 If you are a business customer, then once the seller has accepted your offer to purchase, then provided the retailer or individual seller is ready willing and able to provide the watch(es) and can show that they are in the described standard and are authentic you shall be obliged to complete the purchase of the watch(es) from the retailer or individual seller at the agreed price.

3.4 The retailers we work with offer services that will cater to your needs from in-person collections, local drop-offs and fully insured couriered services. You should discuss this directly with the retailer whose offer you have accepted. Individual sellers may have different delivery requirements and you should check these directly.

3.5 In the majority of cases, all payments shall be made directly to Chrono Hunter and not to the retailer or individual seller. Any funds received from the buyer shall be held in a designated client account, separate from the company’s operational funds, pending confirmation that the buyer has taken receipt of the watch. Upon receipt of such confirmation, and subject to the terms of this agreement, the funds shall be released to the seller.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in certain circumstances — including, but not limited to, situations where the watch must be ordered or procured specifically for the buyer — the seller may require an advance payment. Furthermore, Chrono Hunter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to collect a deposit from the buyer, with the balance of the purchase price to be remitted directly to the seller in accordance with terms communicated at the point of sale.

For the avoidance of doubt, the seller shall bear full responsibility for insuring the watch against loss, theft, or damage during transit and until such time as delivery has been made and receipt has been acknowledged by the buyer. “Receipt” shall mean the point at which the watch is physically delivered to the buyer at the agreed delivery address and the buyer has either expressly confirmed acceptance, or Chrono Hunter has received confirmation of delivery from a reputable courier service providing evidence of delivery. Risk in the watch shall remain with the seller until such time.

4. Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you

4.1 If you are a consumer, we are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the process.

4.2 We are not liable for losses caused by any misrepresentation or non-performance by the retailer or individual seller.

5. How we may use your personal information

3.2 In the event of your withdrawal after a prospective purchaser who is introduced by us enters into a contract to purchase a watch(es) from you, your fee still applies, requiring prompt payment, acknowledged as a genuine pre-estimate of incurred losses by Chrono Hunter, with the right to suspend services or pursue legal action for non-payment.

3.3 Commission rate. The amount of commission payable shall be at the rate agreed at the point of listing the watch for sale. We reserve the right to change the level of commission chargeable at any time, and will advise you in writing of any such changes and the date upon which they will take effect.

If you are a consumer and are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you may want to contact an alternative dispute resolution provider.

6.7 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings if you are a business.
