Chrono24 Buyer Protection: What's Included

Payment via the Escrow Service

Thanks to the Chrono24 Escrow Service, your payment is fully covered. We keep your money in our escrow account for 14 days after delivery of your watch. Thus, you have time to carefully inspect your order knowing your money is safe in our account. Only then do we transfer payout to the dealer.

Authenticity Guarantee

Our promise: Every new and used watch on Chrono24 is authentic. Our dealers are required to inspect each watch's authenticity and may only list original timepieces. However, should issues arise, you have 14 days upon delivery of your order to contact our support team and get your money back.

Strict dealer guidelines

In the interest of security, dealers on our marketplace must follow a strict set of rules. Before a professional dealer can sell on our platform, they must provide us with their photo ID, commercial register entry, business address, and tax number. Furthermore, we require all dealers to follow our strict dealer guidelines. Authentic customer reviews also provide insights into the respective dealer's services, so you can always be sure who you're buying from.

Insured shipments

Dealers ship every order with full insurance coverage. In rare case of unsuccessful delivery, your shipment would be fully insured, so you can make both domestic and international purchases risk-free.

Do you have any questions?

If your payment was processed via the Escrow Service and you would like to return the item, please either call (+1 646-887-3560) or email () our support team. We will document and confirm that you made a return request within the allotted window, initiate the return process, and keep you updated along the way.

If you paid the dealer or seller directly, you should contact them regarding a return.

Please note private sellers have no legal obligation to accept returns.
Many listings offer payment processing on Chrono24. In these cases, you transfer payment to a secure escrow account, where it is kept safe until you have the watch in your hands. The Chrono24 team is always available to help ensure your purchase runs smoothly. You can learn more about Chrono24 payment processing here:
If you're unable to process your payment using Chrono24's escrow account, please note the following:

You can likely find other trustworthy escrow services in your own country. Make sure to research the escrow service thoroughly before making a final choice.

Both buyer and seller must agree to the use of an escrow service. Please only accept information the escrow service provides directly to you. Do not rely on emails forwarded by the seller.
Chrono24 has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to dealers listing counterfeit watches. We verify every dealer on our platform, and many of them have been selling watches on Chrono24 for years. The Trusted Seller seal is further evidence of a dealer's trustworthiness. We immediately suspend any dealer proven to be offering fakes or replicas.

If you're concerned about a watch's authenticity, research its current market value. Watches from luxury brands like Rolex, Breitling, and others rarely sell for only a few hundred dollars. If you have any doubts, you should refrain from making a purchase. Prices that seem too good to be true probably are. Instead, you should report your concerns by clicking the "Report listing" link on the listing page.

Please note that authentic watches are sometimes repaired using replacement parts. These components are not always a 1:1 match with those used in the original. Non-original components are especially common in vintage watches. In such instances, the dealer must indicate all replacement parts in the listing.
Many listings offer payment processing on Chrono24. In these cases, you can either pay by credit card or bank transfer. Your money goes into a secure escrow account, where it is kept safe until you have the watch in your hands. The Chrono24 team is always available to help ensure the entire purchasing process runs smoothly
