If you have specified a recipient of the Breitling Product who is not you for delivery purposes (for example when you ordered the Breitling Product as a gift) then you understand and accept that evidence of a signature by such recipient (or at that delivery address) is evidence of delivery and fulfilment of the sale contract by Breitling and transfer of responsibility to the recipient in the same way as if the Breitling Product had been delivered to you directly.

In several countries, Breitling is pleased to offer to you the option to purchase an insurance, covering your Breitling product against different kind of risk (usually incl. damage, theft and loss, provided scope of coverage is not different for the insurance service offered in your specific country) (“Insurance Service”).
The Insurance Service, if available in your country, is offered by the third-party company available in your country of residence, which is independent of Breitling.

Breitling is not responsible for any third-party services that a Customer may choose to employ in connection with their Breitling purchase. The Insurance Service is subject to their own terms and policies only.
Customers interested in exploring options to purchase an Insurance for their Breitling product may visit the website of the third-party insurance company available in their country, to learn about the requirements and the specific terms that may apply.
By choosing the option to purchase the Insurance Services offered to you on the Breitling website, you will be redirected to the website of the insurance company available in your country of residence, if any.
