6. SHIPPING AND DELIVERY
6.1. DELIVERY TIMES
Breitling shall arrange delivery of your Breitling Product through its selected logistics provider (the “Logistics Provider”). Breitling will use its best efforts to process your order as soon as possible. Standard delivery time is two (2) to three (3) working days from transmission by Breitling of the order confirmation, however these times are purely indicative and are not binding on Breitling. You are invited to indicate during the checkout process your preferred time slot of delivery (taking into account the above indicative delivery times). These indicative delivery times do not apply to optional services or promotions described in clauses 4 and 5 above.
Please note that Breitling Products cannot be delivered everywhere. All orders made through the Breitling Channels are limited to delivery in the Countries listed in these Conditions of Sale. You, as the Customer, must provide to Breitling a delivery address in one of the listed Countries. Additionally, we are unable to deliver to hotels and hostels, post office box addresses, and to certain military locations, or to any unsecure location where a person cannot sign for the Breitling Product.
Once your order has been shipped, you can track the transportation of your purchase by visiting the “My Orders” page on our Website.
Orders may be subject to delivery charges which if applicable we will notify you of at checkout. Special deliveries may be subject to additional delivery charges and different delivery times, which will be informed to you by Breitling, if applicable.
6.2. COLLECT OPTION
In some of the Countries, depending on availability (if any), you may also choose a Breitling Boutique, or another store as indicated by Breitling, as delivery address (the “Collection Point”) where you may collect the purchased Breitling Product (the “Collect Option”). This option, when available, will be shown at checkout and you will be able to choose the nearest Breitling Boutique, or another store indicated by Breitling that best suits you.
If you choose the Collect Option, the responsibility for the Breitling Products passes to the Customer when the Customer collects the ordered Breitling Products at the Collection Point. The Customer will be notified via email once the ordered Breitling Product has arrived and can be collected at the Collection Point.
In case the Collect Option has been chosen, the Customer can collect the ordered Breitling Products at the Collection Point within a period of fourteen (14) days from notification. If the Customer does not collect the Breitling Products within this period, the order of the Breitling Products is automatically deemed to be cancelled by the Customer. Accordingly, any relevant sales contract is deemed null and void. As a consequence, Breitling no longer has any obligation to sell the respective Breitling Products to the Customer and any amounts paid by the Customer will be refunded to the Customer via their payment method. Please note that this cancellation option is in addition and not a substitute to the right to cancel the contract outlined in clause 7 below.
When collecting the ordered Breitling Products at the Collection Point, you or your mandated recipient (who must show a written mandate from you and a copy of your identity document) has to sign a confirmation paper and identify itself with a valid identity card or in a suitable manner, as further determined by Breitling and/or the Collection Point. Breitling and/or the Collection Point have the right to take a copy of the identity card of the Customer or the mandated recipient and store it in line with Breitling’s Privacy Policy https://www.breitling.com/zz-zz/privacy-policy/ .
6.3. RECEPTION AND VERIFICATION OF THE BREITLING PRODUCTS
Breitling will insure each purchased Breitling Product during the time it is in transit until it is delivered to you. The responsibility for the Breitling Product passes from Breitling to the Customer when the Logistics Provider delivers the Breitling Product to you or a designated recipient. The Logistics Provider may require an adult's name and signature, or other suitable form of proof of delivery, to confirm receipt of each Breitling Product delivered. 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), or any other suitable proof of delivery, is evidence of delivery and fulfilment of the sales 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.
Your delivery package will contain your purchased Breitling Product with all related accessories (if any), the product manual, if applicable, certificate of official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute and/or an e-Warranty Card, a Breitling Bag, the return instructions and the packing slip.
You are required to verify the quantity and condition of the Breitling Products on delivery. Please inform our Logistics Service Provider immediately in case of any apparent breakage or visible defects or damages to the package or to the Breitling Product. Please also inform our Concierge Service without delay in case of any such defect or damage you notice on delivery or within fourteen (14) days of delivery.
For any damage or defect in your Breitling Product that you, or the gift recipient, notices after the above period, you, or the gift recipient, must inform a Breitling authorized service center without delay from discovery of the defect or damage. Please refer to the section of the Website entitled “My watch needs a service” to find your nearest authorized service center. Failure to inform Breitling in accordance with these timelines may void your right to make a claim under our international warranty https://www.breitling.com/zz-zz/service/international-warranty/ as described in clause 10. Any return of your Breitling Product must be in accordance with the rules contained in clause 8.
7. RIGHT TO CANCEL THE CONTRACT
