    Final control of the quality and characteristics of the watch according to its original criteria before the sale.
    Storage of the watch in ideal conditions depending on the model considered and checking of the condition at regular intervals depending on the place of storage. The purchased watch is covered by a one-year warranty under appropriate use in its condition.

All the different elements of an item sold full-set are of course authenticated by our experts and kept with the greatest care in order to send them to you in the best possible state of conservation.

The purchase invoice gives rise to a two-year guarantee on the operation of our vintage collection watches. This guarantee, which runs from the transfer of ownership, is only exercised in our shop, Mostra-Store (Provence Montres) will in no case pay an external invoice.

The guarantee of products following a sale applies with regard to suitable storage by the user and normal use of a vintage collector's watch. This use must correspond to the characteristics and limitations of the watch concerned, and as such fulfill the transport and packaging conditions suitable for the travel of products deemed to be “very fragile”.

Mostra-Store will in no case take into account in the guarantee of the products: an accident or manipulation having caused a shock, improper handling, lack of care likely to damage the watch, negligence during the immersion of the watch or its contact with a liquid for non-waterproof watches, exposure to a gas or to temperatures that are not compatible with the normal operating range of a vintage watch, and to a malfunction due to incorrect screwing down of the crown of the watch for waterproof models.

Wear or damage to the battery, bracelet, case, crown, pushers and crystal are not covered by the warranty.

In certain cases, and on request, Mostra-Store can guarantee certain models of vintage watches over a longer period than the product guarantee following a sale. In this case, this exceptional guarantee must appear on the purchase invoice of the product and be considered as an extension of guarantee applying only to the duration of the guarantee following a sale.

The warranty does not cover all malfunctions or alterations due to opening the watch, loss of parts, maintenance outside our workshops or replacement of spare parts of the watch. Any modification of the original condition observed by us during the sale will result in the cancellation of the purchase guarantee, as such, a description or a photo of the watch in its original condition observed is available during of the sale of our watches on simple request from you at the time of purchase.

Mostra is therefore able to sell a watch with a full guarantee of authenticity. The numbered and certified Mostra certificate of authenticity included in your purchase documents in addition to the invoice provides an assessment of the evolution of the value of the watch by comparison of its rating on the markets.

For any additional information, we invite you to refer to our general conditions of sale.
