You must strictly follow the instructions of Panerai as described herein or as provided via the Service Channels, as the case may be. Important to note that not all products can be shipped; please read carefully the Conditions of Service herein and/or the instructions on the Service Channel you use.

Depending on the product and the country, Panerai may, but has no obligation to, provide you with a Service Kit or courtesy shipping as mentioned hereunder.

If Panerai provides you with a Service Kit:

Panerai will send a mailing kit to the address provided by you in the Pre-Registration Form (the "Service Kit") containing notably:

-        The necessary material to pack your product carefully, and

-        A printed copy of the Pre-Registration Form and further information, if any.

You must then package your product and prepare the shipping package by attaching:

-        The original duly completed Pre-Registration Form or any other document requested by the Panerai (duly signed if so requested),

-        If so requested by the Panerai, a copy of the Panerai International  Warranty card or the proof of purchase / service in the Panerai authorized network, and

-        Any other documents requested by the Panerai.

If Panerai does not provide you with a Service Kit:

Please adequately package your product with all due care and taking into consideration the value thereof. Any damage, destruction or loss due to inadequate packaging will be your sole responsibility.

If Panerai provides you with courtesy shipping:

Once your packaging is ready, please follow the instructions provided by us or in the Service Kit. The pickup is only available when mentioned by us and in locations authorized by us (certain areas within the country are excluded). Please note that the shipment of your product through our transport partner must be made in the same the country in which you received the Service-Kit.  If the Panerai provides you with courtesy shipping, the shipping will be free of charge. However, note that you are required to send us your product only through our transport partner in accordance with the terms herein. Panerai declines any and all responsibility for any damage, destruction, loss or theft of your product if it is not sent via our authorized transport partner in strict accordance with the Conditions of Service herein.

Products exceeding the recommended retail sale price set out by Panerai shall not be shipped. It is important that you shall not send us any product exceeding this value, unless otherwise expressly authorized by Panerai. We decline any and all responsibility for any damage, destruction, loss or theft should you ship any such products in violation of the above.

If Panerai does not provide you with courtesy shipping:

Once your packaging is ready, please contact the carrier of your choice for shipping to the designated address. Panerai declines any and all responsibility for any damage, destruction, loss or theft of your product during transport, and any of which, should it occur, shall be under your own responsibility.

For security reasons, the Service Kit boxes will be unbranded.

 

Please note that you can only change the shipping address to where the repaired product will be returned before placing your Service Order, unless previously agreed with the Service Channels  

 

If you send us your product by your own means with the carrier of your choice, or with our Service Kit but without using our pre-paid label, you are responsible for the shipping expenses for sending the product to Panerai, as well as any insurance expenses, and Panerai will not be held liable in case of loss, damage, theft or any other deterioration of your product during transportation to the Panerai.

 

You must keep a proof of shipment. Only products received by the Panerai will be eligible for the Service, in accordance with these Conditions of Service. 

Diagnosis

By shipping your product to us, you agree that Panerai is permitted to open the product and carry out a diagnosis of your product and issue a proposal of a Cost Estimate, according to the provisions of these Conditions of Service (the “Cost Estimate”).

 

Panerai will receive your product and verify that it meets these Conditions of Service. Panerai will then proceed to the diagnosis of your product to identify the necessary Services in accordance with the Pre-Registration Form and will send you an estimate through the Service Channels.

 

By sending your product for diagnosis, you agree that it may (ex: vintage or watches with complications) be sent overseas including to the Panerai manufacturer for the diagnosis at a cost to be communicated by Panerai; please consider that in such event, the timing may be extended over several weeks. We will make reasonable effort to keep you informed. You may be required to provide more documents necessary for export. If you cannot provide necessary documents for export, we will return the product to you. By shipping your product to us, you also confirm it has been imported in your country in accordance with applicable laws.

Cost estimate and Pre-Approved Value of Service

If your product is eligible for the Services, you will receive a Cost Estimate for approval through the Service Channels.

 

This Cost Estimate will be valid for the period referred in the Cost Estimate, after which it will automatically become null and void if you do not accept it within that time period; in such event, or if you refuse the Cost Estimate, Panerai will not perform any repair Service and will send back the product unrepaired to the shipping address provided by you.

 

The Cost Estimate will include a service quotation for each Service (mandatory and optional).

 

We invite you to carefully check all the details of the Cost Estimate and the Conditions of Service before confirming the Cost Estimate and placing your Order through the Service Channels.

 

All prices for the Services or the Cost Estimate are in the currency of the Service Entity location. Taxes (such as VAT, GST business tax, etc.as the case may be) and shipping costs (if any) for the return are included (to the exclusion of other taxes unless otherwise indicated).

 

The applicable taxes and shipping costs (if any) depend on your shipping address and will be specified in the Cost Estimate.

 

IMPORTANT: Your approval of the Cost Estimate via any Service Channel constitutes irrevocable acceptance of the Service to be performed by Panerai and according to the present Conditions of Service and confirms the existence of a binding contract obligating you to pay the amount due for said Services.

If, for technical reasons, Panerai determines before proceeding with the Service that the cost of the repair will exceed the price of the estimate you validated, we will send you a new estimate for your approval or rejection.

 

This applies only if the pre-approved value of Service feature is available and you have used it (the “Pre-Approved Value of Service”).

If you have activated the Pre-Approved Value of Service feature (if available), you have irrevocably agreed that we can perform Services (necessary and/or optional) within the Pre-Approved Value of Service:

-        If the pre-approved amount is sufficient to perform the Service further to the diagnosis, it will be performed immediately after diagnosis without sending a Cost Estimate for approval.

-        If the amount of the actual Cost Estimate is higher than the Pre-Approved Value, you will receive a Cost Estimate for approval. If you refuse the Cost Estimate, we will not perform any services and will return your product unrepaired to the shipping address that you have previously communicated in the Pre-Registration Form.

 

By authorizing us to proceed with the Service, you agree to pay for our performance of the repair work, within the limit of the Cost Estimate you validated, with the exception of the gratuity cases defined by Panerai (ex: service under warranty).

 

Accordingly, no Cost Estimate will be issued for Pre-Approved Value of Service, free of charge Services and Services covered by the International Panerai Guarantee.

 

Please note that the creation of the Cost Estimate by our master craftsmen takes time and careful preparation. Therefore, we reserve the right to raise a diagnosis fee  should the service be declined or if we do not receive a response within the Cost Estimate validation period.

 

In order to guarantee a service of excellence, any price in any document, includes the removal by us of any components that are replaced, which shall become our property from the time of their replacement. By agreeing to the terms and conditions, you irrevocably waive any right to the return of these components. Any intervention on these components could lead to their deterioration and/or destruction. This also applies to any repairs and/or replacements performed free of charge under guarantee

Payment

We accept the methods of payment identified as part of the order process via the Service Channels. Depending upon the means of payment, we may require additional information, including specific forms of identification. Please make sure you pay the full amount indicated by the Channel and indicate your Service Order reference number with your payment if requested by the Channel. Panerai will ship or deliver back your product only after receipt of your payment in full.

 

When ordering Services, you should not send us your credit card details by email, postal mail or any other written form. All payment card holders are subject to validation check and authorization by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorize payment to us, you will need to contact your card issuer directly to solve this problem. Other payment methods may also be subject to validation checkand authorization by the payment system providers as well.

The full amount of your Service Order will typically be charged on your payment card or through other means of payment once the servicing of your product is completed. Please do not forget to mention the reference number of your order on your payment when requested. Please note that some financial institutions may charge a fee that will be on your charge.

 

Panerai is prohibited under applicable laws from making sales of its Services to individuals or companies designated on relevant sanctions/prohibition lists or to country destinations sanctioned by the relevant authorities.  Any such transactions will be declined.

 

If you do not pay the full amount of the invoice within 3 calendar months of us notifying you, or if you do not retrieve the product within 12 calendar months of us notifying you, we may sell or otherwise dispose of your repaired product in our sole discretion within the limit of the law. We will apply the proceeds of any sale or disposal to the remuneration of any outstanding amounts, including all the costs in connection with your defaulted payment (i.e., storage charges, administrative costs, etc.); and any balance will be returned, where possible, to you.

Diagnosis

Officine Panerai will receive your product and verify that it meets these Conditions of Service. Officine Panerai will then proceed to the diagnosis of your watch to identify the necessary Services in accordance with the Service Request Form and will send you by e-mail an estimate.

Some watches (vintage or with complications) will have to be sent to Switzerland for the diagnosis at no cost to you.

Cost estimate

You will receive a cost estimate for approval by e-mail.

This cost estimate will be valid for a period of two (2) months after its date of issue by Officine Panerai, after which it will automatically become null and void if you do not accept it within that time period.

By authorizing us to proceed with the Service, you agree to pay for our performance of the repair work, within the limit of the cost estimate you validated.

If, for technical reasons, Officine Panerai determines before proceeding with the Service that the cost of the repair will exceed the cost of the estimate you validated, we will send you a new estimate for your approval or rejection.

Once the shipment is shipped, the delivery time is usually approximately one (1) to three (3) business days. We require the signature of an adult confirming receipt of the package with your watch, at which point the responsibility for the watch comes back to you.

Any delivery estimate communicated to you is only an estimate, and is not binding on Officine Panerai.

To exercise your right to cancel, you must notify Officine Panerai of your decision to cancel unequivocally. You may also cancel using the Model Retraction Form (that can be found at the bottom of this page), but this is not compulsory. In order to comply with the cancellation period, it is sufficient to send an e-mail stating that you request to exercise your right of cancellation before the expiry of the cancellation period.

If you have signed a Service Request Form or an estimate in which you do not expressly request that the performance of the Services commence after the end of the applicable withdrawal period, you may still exercise your right of withdrawal within the time limit, subject to the payment of an amount corresponding to the Services provided.

In case you exercise your right of withdrawal before the diagnosis phase, no payment of fees will be required.

In the event that you exercise your right of withdrawal during the provision of the Services, you will have to pay Officine Panerai an amount calculated on the basis of the percentage of the total contractual services corresponding to the Services ordered which will have been made on the date you notify us.

We will send your watch in the condition it was on the date you informed us of your decision to withdraw from this distance contract.

Manufacturer’s Guarantee and Your Legal Consumer Rights

To exercise this warranty, you must contact Officine Panerai under the same conditions as above.

Officine Panerai does not confirm the cost of the Services until a cost estimate has been issued by Officine Panerai.

While every effort will be made to ensure that the descriptions, photographs or graphical representations relating to the Services detailed on the Platforms are as accurate as possible, Officine Panerai does not warrant that such materials or other content are error-free, whether as a result of inaccuracy, omission, obsolescence or otherwise.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim and exclude all other terms, conditions and warranties in relation to the Services, whether express or implied by statute or otherwise or arising from any previous course of dealing or usage or trade practice.

Nothing in these Conditions of Service limits or excludes our liability for any liability which cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law. Subject to the preceding sentence, our aggregate liability to you under these Conditions of Service for any order, whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages, shall in no event exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of the Service in your Service Order.

In the event that you sent us your product at your costs, by your own means with the carrier of your choice, or with our Service Kit but without using our pre-paid label, you shall bear any and all risks associated therewith and Officine Panerai cannot be held liable for any risks and costs associated with the shipping of your product (including without limitation administrative, handling, delivery, insurance or return costs), or in case of loss, damage, theft or any other deterioration of your product during transportation to the Officine Panerai Customer Service department.

Please note that in some jurisdictions consumer protection laws may not allow certain exclusions or limitation of warranties or liabilities, and consequently some of the above exclusions and limitations may not apply.

We are not responsible for any failure or delay in performing or complying with our obligations under these Conditions of Service which arises from any cause beyond our reasonable control.

The waiver by us of a breach of any provision of these Conditions of Service will not operate to be interpreted as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

This contract is between us and you. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.

Applicable law and jurisdiction

These Conditions of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Switzerland, without reference to conflict of laws provisions.

Officine Panerai does not confirm the cost of the Services until a cost estimate has been issued by Officine Panerai.

While every effort will be made to ensure that the descriptions, photographs or graphical representations relating to the Services detailed on the Platforms are as accurate as possible, Officine Panerai does not warrant that such materials or other content are error-free, whether as a result of inaccuracy, omission, obsolescence or otherwise.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim and exclude all other terms, conditions and warranties in relation to the Services, whether express or implied by statute or otherwise or arising from any previous course of dealing or usage or trade practice.

Nothing in these Conditions of Service limits or excludes our liability for any liability which cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law.

In the event that you sent us your product at your costs, by your own means with the carrier of your choice, or with our Service Kit but without using our pre-paid label, you shall bear any and all risks associated therewith and Officine Panerai cannot be held liable for any risks and costs associated with the shipping of your product (including without limitation administrative, handling, delivery, insurance or return costs), or in case of loss, damage, theft or any other deterioration of your product during transportation to the Officine Panerai Customer Service department.

Please note that in some jurisdictions consumer protection laws may not allow certain exclusions or limitation of warranties or liabilities, and consequently some of the above exclusions and limitations may not apply.

General Provisions

If any provision, or part of a provision, of these Conditions of Service is deemed to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions of these Conditions of Service shall be unaffected and shall continue to be fully valid, binding and enforceable.

We are not responsible for any failure or delay in performing or complying with our obligations under these Conditions of Service which arises from any cause beyond our reasonable control.

The waiver by us of a breach of any provision of these Conditions of Service will not operate to be interpreted as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

This contract is between us and you. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.

Applicable law and jurisdiction

These Conditions of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Switzerland, without reference to conflict of laws provisions.

You may bring proceedings against us either in the courts of Switzerland or in the country where you are domiciled. We may bring proceedings against you in the courts of the country where you are domiciled.

In the event that you sent us your product at your costs, by your own means with the carrier of your choice, or with our Service Kit but without using our pre-paid label, you shall bear any and all risks associated therewith and Officine Panerai cannot be held liable for any risks and costs associated with the shipping of your product (including without limitation administrative, handling, delivery, insurance or return costs), or in case of loss, damage, theft or any other deterioration of your product during transportation to the Officine Panerai Customer Service department.

Please note that in some jurisdictions consumer protection laws may not allow certain exclusions or limitation of warranties or liabilities, and consequently some of the above exclusions and limitations may not apply.

General Provisions

If any provision, or part of a provision, of these Conditions of Service is deemed to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the provisions of these Conditions of Service shall be unaffected and shall continue to be fully valid, binding and enforceable.

These Conditions of Service (and associated terms incorporated by reference) constitute the entire agreement between you and us in relation to the order of Services, and replace and extinguish all prior agreements, draft agreements, arrangements, undertakings, or collateral contracts of any nature made by the parties, whether oral or written, in relation to such subject matter.

We are not responsible for any failure or delay in performing or complying with our obligations under these Conditions of Service which arises from any cause beyond our reasonable control.

The waiver by us of a breach of any provision of these Conditions of Service will not operate to be interpreted as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.

This contract is between us and you. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.

Applicable law and jurisdiction

These Conditions of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Switzerland, without reference to conflict of laws provisions. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in relation to the Conditions of Service, including the validity, invalidity, breach or termination of the Conditions of Service, shall be adjudicated or arbitrated in accordance with the Conditions of Service. Where the laws of Switzerland are different to the mandatory consumer laws in your own country, we will afford you with similar protection.

You may bring proceedings against us either in the courts of Switzerland or in the country where you are domiciled. We may bring proceedings against you in the courts of the country where you are domiciled.

Without any restriction to bring proceedings before a court, you and Officine Panerai will first make reasonable efforts for a period of thirty (30) days to resolve amicably any dispute or failure.
