AGB & Impressum

These General Terms and Conditions govern the conclusion, content and performance of contracts between clients and Lakeside Watches. They apply to the sourcing, brokerage and sale of watches and related accessories. Any deviations or additions must be made in writing.

Offers made by Lakeside Watches remain generally binding for 7 days unless stated otherwise in writing. Products shown on the website do not constitute a binding offer. A client's order or sourcing request constitutes the binding offer, which may be accepted by Lakeside Watches. For sourcing mandates, a deposit may be required. In the event of cancellation after confirmation, this deposit may be retained. No statutory right of return exists in Switzerland for defect-free goods.

Shipping is carried out at the client's cost and risk unless agreed otherwise. Any transport damage must be reported to the carrier without delay. Delivery times are non-binding unless expressly confirmed in writing. Delays do not entitle the client to damages, price reductions or withdrawal. Title remains reserved until full payment has been received.

All prices are stated in CHF unless otherwise agreed. Additional costs, including VAT, shipping, insurance, transport, customs duties or expenses, may be charged separately. Invoices are payable net within 7 days unless agreed otherwise in writing. In case of late payment, default interest of 5% per annum applies unless a different contractual rate has been expressly agreed.

Delivered goods must be inspected immediately upon receipt. Any obvious defects or deviations must be reported without delay. Partial deliveries and performance by third parties remain reserved where appropriate.

Liability is excluded to the extent permitted by law. Lakeside Watches shall only be liable for intent or gross negligence. Any liability for indirect or consequential damages, including loss of profit, business interruption, data loss or market-related value fluctuations, is excluded. No liability is assumed for the content of external websites.

For pre-owned watches, warranty is provided primarily by repair or rectification where possible. If this is not possible, Lakeside Watches may, at its discretion, rescind the contract or provide an appropriate alternative solution. Unless expressly agreed otherwise, no broader warranty is granted beyond mandatory legal obligations.

Any claims under a manufacturer's guarantee must be asserted directly against the respective manufacturer. Lakeside Watches is not the direct guarantor unless explicitly agreed in writing.

Lakeside Watches exercises due care in reviewing authenticity, provenance, condition and accompanying documentation. Where certificates, reports or documents originate from third parties, no separate liability is assumed for their completeness or legal validity.

Client inquiries, sourcing requests and transaction-related information are treated confidentially. Lakeside Watches may share necessary information with suppliers, logistics providers, experts or service partners where required for contract fulfilment.

Swiss law applies exclusively. The place of jurisdiction is Zurich, Switzerland, subject to mandatory statutory jurisdictions. Before initiating court proceedings, the parties may seek an amicable resolution, including mediation where appropriate.
