Shipping & Returns

Do I receive an online tracking number?

Premium shipments with DHL Express receive a tracking message on their email and mobile cellphone number. With DHL's On Demand Delivery (ODD) feature it is possible to manage the shipment easily. With ODD it is possible to change when, where and how the delivery will take place. It is possible to:

• Change the delivery date
• Deliver at a DHL Service point
• Change the delivery address
• Allow delivery to neighbors / reception / security
• Allow delivery without signature
• Hold package until you return from your holidays (max 30 days)

Does international shipping include customs charges and taxes?

For all orders to countries within the European Union, customs duties and taxes are included. This means you won’t need to pay anything extra when your package arrives.

For orders shipped outside of the European Union, customs duties and taxes are not included in the product price. We ship with DHL, but please note that your country may charge additional fees upon delivery. For accurate information about import duties or taxes in your country, we recommend contacting your local customs office.

For orders shipped to the United States:
Due to updated U.S. Customs policies and stricter enforcement, orders — even those under $800 — may be subject to import duties, state taxes, and courier processing fees. For example, a watch valued at $250 could incur additional charges of $70–$100 upon delivery.
These fees are set by U.S. Customs and the courier, and are not included at checkout.

How much does a return cost?

 In addition to these shipping costs, we charge a restocking fee for engraved products. Below you will find an overview with an indication of the return costs and shipping times per region. The charges will be deducted from the refundable amount.

What is a Restocking Fee?

Engraving products costs us extra time and resources. That's why we charge a restocking fee for engraved products when they’re returned. We charge an amount of $27 per piece for engraved watches, jewellery and (sun)glasses. We charge an amount of $9 per piece for engraved bracelets and gift packaging. To return an engraved product, you can use our returns portal. The costs will eventually be deducted from the refundable amount.

What is the warranty offered on WoodWatch products?

Each WoodWatch product is made with an eye on quality, including the materials used to make your product. Before a product is shipped, it has undergone multiple tests to ensure the highest possible quality and workmanship. From the date of delivery, the product is warranted for a period of no longer than two years.

Warranty conditions

We advise treating your product with appropriate care to maximise their lifetime. We explicitly cover product defects that are caused by normal usage. Warranty does not apply to self-inflicted damage caused by inappropriate treatment. Our product categories have different warranty conditions specified below:

If you would like to file a warranty claim, please contact our support team here. To find a quick solution, we ask you to provide as much information as possible, including your order number and pictures of the defect. If your warranty claim is approved, you should make the return for further inspection. After inspection, we will either repair or replace the product with the same model. If the same model is no longer available, you will have the option to choose an alternative model or receive a store voucher, which can be used anytime during the remainder of your 2-year warranty period. The product will then be shipped back to you with standard shipping. We will cover the shipping costs for the reshipment of your product. Please note that while the warranty ensures repair, replacement, or store credit for eligible issues, it does not include refunds.
