Grey Market Retailers

There is an old adage that states – if something is too good to be true, it usually is.

This is something that is very applicable to the watch industry, due to an influx of what are commonly referred to as Grey Market Sellers.

The following active online sellers are considered by WatchNation to be Grey Market Sellers and are not recognised by Cestrian:

JomaShop

CreationWatches

City Watches UK

WatchesZon

Best Quality Watches

E-Global Central

WatchNation will not price match against any Grey Market Seller.

Cestrian Manufacturer Warranty

Enjoy peace of mind knowing your Cestrian watch is covered by a valid manufacturer warranty. This warranty ensures repairs and replacements are covered according to Cestrian’s policy, guaranteeing a higher level of protection for your investment. Cestrian manufacturer warranties typically cover defects in materials and workmanship for a 2-year period after purchase. This means that if your watch malfunctions due to a manufacturing defect within two years, Cestrian will repair or replace it free of charge.

Risks of Grey Market Sellers

Grey market sellers often provide limited or third-party warranties that may not offer the same comprehensive coverage as a Cestrian manufacturer’s warranty. Here’s why you should be cautious:

Limited Coverage: Third-party warranties may only cover certain components of your Cestrian watch, or they may have exclusions for specific types of damage (e.g., water damage, accidental drops).

Authorisation Issues: Repairs under a third-party warranty may not be authorised by Cestrian, potentially voiding the manufacturer’s warranty altogether. This could leave you responsible for repair costs.

Customer Service Challenges: Getting repairs or replacements under a third-party warranty can be a hassle, especially if the warranty company is located in a different country. Dealing directly with Cestrian ensures a smoother process.

Benefits of Buying from WatchNation

By purchasing your Cestrian watch from an authorized retailer like WatchNation, you can be confident that your watch is genuine and comes with a valid manufacturer warranty. WatchNation, as an authorised Cestrian retailer, provides exceptional customer service, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience should you require any assistance with your Cestrian watch. Since WatchNation is authorised by Cestrian, any repairs or replacements under the warranty will be handled efficiently and directly with Cestrian, minimising delays and complications.
