7. Service-Specific Terms

Condition Assessment

We conduct a condition assessment before commencing any service. If we discover faults not apparent at intake, we will contact you to discuss options before proceeding.

Vintage and Heritage Pieces

Restoration work is reversible where practically possible. We will inform you of any irreversible steps in advance. Sourcing of period-appropriate parts is carried out with care, though availability cannot always be guaranteed.

Service Period

Estimated timeframes given at intake are indicative and not contractual. We will keep you informed of any significant delays. Standard mechanical servicing typically takes 7–14 working days; battery care is generally same-day for common models.

Service Record

We provide a written service record with each completed job. This documents the work carried out and any observations noted during the service.

Post-Service Coverage

The scope and period of any post-service coverage will be explained to you in writing at the time of collection. Coverage applies to the serviced components under normal use conditions.

8. Disclaimers

Our services are provided with reasonable skill and care. However, we cannot make absolute assurances about outcomes in all cases:

  • We do not represent that all timepieces submitted can be returned to full working order.
  • The condition of very old or previously repaired movements may limit what can be achieved.
  • Website content is provided for informational purposes and may not reflect the full range of what is possible for your specific timepiece.
  • We are not affiliated with any watch manufacturer; our services are independent.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by Thai law:

  • Our liability for any single claim arising from a service is limited to the amount paid for that specific service.
  • We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, including loss of use of the timepiece or loss of sentimental value.
  • We are not responsible for pre-existing faults or deterioration unrelated to our work.
  • Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for any matter that cannot be excluded by law.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold horologicafads harmless from any claims, losses, or expenses arising from your breach of these terms, including any claim by a third party asserting ownership of a submitted timepiece. This indemnification obligation survives the completion of any service engagement.

11. Termination

Either party may withdraw from a service engagement before work has commenced. Once work has begun:

  • You may request that work stop at any point; reasonable costs incurred to that stage may apply.
  • We may decline to continue a service if we identify safety concerns, evidence of prior misrepresentation, or if the timepiece's condition makes further work inadvisable.
  • On termination, you are expected to collect the timepiece promptly. All applicable charges for completed work remain payable.

12. Dispute Resolution

We encourage any concerns to be raised with us directly in the first instance. Most matters can be resolved through a straightforward conversation.

Governing Law: These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Kingdom of Thailand, including the Civil and Commercial Code and applicable consumer protection legislation.

Jurisdiction: Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Bangkok, Thailand.

Consumer Rights: Nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer under Thai law.

13. General Provisions

Entire Agreement: These terms, together with any written service quotation, constitute the entire agreement between you and horologicafads regarding the relevant service.

Severability: If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in full force.

Waiver: Our failure to enforce any provision does not constitute a waiver of our right to do so in future.

Assignment: You may not assign your rights under these terms without our prior written consent.

Notices: Formal notices should be sent to us at the address or email set out in Section 15.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes in our services, legal requirements, or operational practices. When we do:

  • The updated version will be published on this page with a revised effective date.
  • For significant changes, we will endeavour to notify clients who have submitted timepieces or made contact with us.
  • Continued use of our services after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
