Letter, Fax, E-mail) or ? if the merchandise arrives before the deadline ? by returning the items. The revocation period begins after the receipt of this notification in writing, but not before the receipt of merchandise by the consignee (in the case of recurring shipments of similar goods, not prior to the arrival of the first partial delivery) and also not before our duty to furnish information under Article 246 § 2 in conjunction with § 1, paragraph 1 and 2 EGBGB; as well as our obligations in accordance with §312e, paragraph 1, line 1 BGB in conjunction with Article 246 § 3 EGBGB is fulfilled.

§ 7    Warranty / Disclaimer    
§ 7.1     Warranty
The Supplier's warranty shall be in accordance with the statutory provisions, unless otherwise provided in the following paragraphs. The international warranty is limited to 12 months. The warranty is not transferable. Liability for normal wear and tear is excluded. For used goods the warranty period shall be twelve months from the date of delivery.

§ 7.2     Disclaimer
No warranty is given for defects which were caused by the buyer´s faulty or improper use, his disregard for instructions or were due to incorrect or improper treatment of the goods.
Excluded from warranty are defects and damage caused by careless or improper handling or use of the goods by the Buyer:
* normal wear and tear and aging (e.g. scratched crystal; alteration of the colour and/or material of non metallic straps and chains, such as leather, textile, rubber; peeling of the plating)
* Any damage on any part of the watch resulting from abnormal/abusive use, lack of care, negligence, accidents (knocks, dents, crushing, broken crystal, etc.), incorrect use of the watch and non-observance of the use directions provided by H2O watch GmbH
* indirect or consequential damages of any kind resulting from e.g. the use, the non-functioning, the defects or the inaccuracy of the H2O watch
* the H2O watch handled by non-authorized persons

§ 7.3    Unauthorized Repairs
The warranty lapses if the buyer or any third party attempts to repair the goods or in any other way tampers with them, without H2O´s prior written consent and provided the defect which occurred was caused by this unauthorised tampering.

§ 7.4    Notification of Defects
Apparent defects must be notified in writing no later than 3 days after the goods are received by the buyer and in doing so the timely posting of the goods is sufficient to be within the limit; otherwise all claims shall be excluded. When dealing with merchants §377 HGB (German Commercial Code) applies additionally.

§ 7.5     Correction of Defects
Where the customer makes a claim based on statutory warranty the customer is entitled to have the defect repaired or, alternatively, he may request the delivery of a defect free product (supplementary performance). Where the mode of supplementary performance chosen by the buyer leads to disproportionately high costs, the buyer's rights shall be limited to the other alternative. Where a product is replaced, an exchange into a more valuable product with comparable features is agreed to in advance, provided this is reasonable for the consumer (e.g.: exchange into a subsequent model, same model series, etc.). Further going rights, particularly rescission of the agreement, may only be exercised after the expiry of an appropriate time limit for supplementary performance or after supplementary performance has failed twice.

§ 7.6    
The making of a warranty claim does not restart or interrupt the warranty period; §203 BGB remains unaffected.

§ 7.7     Further Claims
With the exception of liability for death and personal injury any further going claims - no matter on what legal grounds - are excluded, provided nothing else has been specifically agreed. Hence we are not liable for damage which does not occur on the product itself; in particular we shall not be liable for any consequential loss or lost profit of the buyer. The above exclusion of liability does not apply provided the damage was based on intent, gross negligence or the missing of a guaranteed characteristic, breach of essential contractual obligations, delay, impossibility of performance, as well as claims further to §§1,4 of the German Product Liability Law (Produkthaftungsgesetz). We are not liable for the loss of data by the client provided we did not cause this intentionally or grossly negligently and the buyer made sure that all data was properly secured, so that they can be reconstructed with reasonable effort.

§ 8     Return Policy
Our goal is that each customer is satisfied with us, our products and our service. On the rare occasions that servicing is required, please contact us within three days after receipts of the product to get the required RMA number prior before returning the product. The product must be returned within 7 days after receipt of the RMA number. The returned product must be in an unopened, resaleable condition and must be returned in its original packaging incl. full package contents like straps, screw driver and all other included items together with the product itself. Please note that the customer has to bear the shipping charges. Return deliveries must be insured to the value of the product. Return shipments of watches and accessories could not be accepted if the watch has been worn, the straps have been sized, the packaging material has been removed. Customer indivially assembled watches are excluded from our return policy and could not be refunded. We can not refund the original and return shipping costs.
