This also applies to areas of EU member states with special arrangements. The customer has to pay all additional fees for customs clearance.

9. Warranty (1) The liability for material defects complies with the legal provisions. (2) In cases where a notification of defects is justified, the user reimburses the customer the costs for the most costefficient shipping route; this does not apply if the costs increase because the purchase item was transported into a country different from the country of delivery. In cases where a notification of defects is not justified, the user is entitled to claim the reimbursement of the investigation costs if the customer has realized or has not realized due to negligence that there are no defects in the purchased item. For cases like this, a lump sum payment of € 50.00 is agreed upon as compensation. The compensation is supposed to be estimated higher or lower if DAMASKO gives evidence of a higher or the customer gives evidence of a lower damage. In case of an unjustified notice of defects the customer has to pay the shipping costs. (3) If the customer wants to assert a claim based on the liability for material defects and / or warranty towards the user and this should be based on the repair order, the customer has to clarify this clearly when placing the order and to point out the user. The customer has to verify the existence of a purchase contract and / or warranty contract e.g., by showing the invoice and / or warranty card. (4) Operating errors (e. g. the setting of the watch during the process of setting the date, daily winding up of the watch, setting of the watch counterclockwise), improper handling (e.g. breaking of glass, tearing out or breaking off of the crown, impacts, drops, falls, sporting activities) as well as normal signs of wear due to age or usage are not covered by the materials defect liability. (5) The following circumstances are no material defect as a matter of routine: The luminescence of the coating with special paint / SuperLumiNova is the consequence of a physical effect. There are irregularities in the luminous power and the occupancy possible. The coating of the black models can, in individual cases, cause some erratic light reflections or can have irregularities in its coating. All DAMASKO models with plain sapphire glass are equipped with a very resistant bilateral antireflection coating. The outward coating can, however, wear out because of extreme strain, improper handling and everyday usage. With leather straps, abrasion and wearout depend on the ambient conditions in connection with the wearer because leather is a natural material und subjected to an ageing process. The DAMASKO manufactory steel bracelet is made from ice-hardened stainless steel and is very resistant. When the bracelet is worn, some shiny spots between the individual links can develop. They are a consequence of the mutual contact between the elements of hardened stainless steel. Some DAMASKO models consist of a hand-sanded casing. This can lead to dimensional deviations or width fluctuations on the lugs. (6) The warranty expires, if the goods are opened by a third party within the warranty period.

10. Liability (1) The user’s liability for a violation of irrelevant duties due to a slight degree of negligence is excluded. (2) The user’s liability for a violation of substantial duties due to a slight degree of negligence is limited to the foreseeable damages typical for the contract.
