The Clock and Watch Store

Welcome to our eBay outlet store!

We have been in the business of selling clock and watch related material for over 13 years now and we try our best to make sure there are no unwanted surprises on your end when you receive your items. However, occasionally, things happen and we are here to assist you any way we can if and when they do. Our customer service center is available 7 days a week to answer any questions you may have about an item we have listed, questions about your purchase or in the event something goes wrong with your purchased product. 

Customer Service Center: 586-255-4433

Due to eBay and PayPal's ever changing policies with buyer/seller protection, we are forced to sell everything AS-IS with no returns. Please keep in mind, our phone number is here for a reason. We are not in the business of misleading or being decietful to our clientel and we will do everything we can to disclose any defects known to us on these 40-200 year old items however, we cannot accept a return due to neglect or mishandeling a watch causing damage to it on the buyers end. The Buyer/Seller protection policies mean well however, they hurt the honest sellers by making the few dishonest buyers get away with robbing parts, using high end watches to go to a wedding or etc, altering or outright causing damage to an item and then being able to return it without the seller having any say in the matter.

We are a reputable dealer maintaining honest and ethical practices so you have no worries in dealing with us. We take care of our customers just as if you walked into our store and purchased it directly like the old fashioned way. It is sad that we must disclose all of this however, there are always people that will use the system to get something for nothing and we will not tolerate that kind of business any longer. 

Up for Consideration:

• Antique Illinois Railroad Pocket Watch
• 16 Size 23 Jewel 60 Hour Bunn Special Grade Movement
• Illinois "Blindman's" Montgomery Style Porcelain 3pc Double Sunk Dial 
• Mineral Glass Crystal
• 14kt. White Gold Filled Model #173 Bunn Special Railroad Case
• PLEASE NOTE: Due to USPS rate changes, Flat Rate Boxes could reduce the costs when shipping to the west coast. Please contact us prior to making payment to confirm the accuracy of the shipping calculator if it appears excessive 
• Measures approx. 51.25mm in diameter(not including the crown or bow)

International Buyers: Please be advised we no longer ship via USPS First Class or Small Flat Rate Box due to the inability to insure or track. All International sales will now ship using eBay's Global Shipping Program or we can ship direct with DHL if you prefer.

Also, our listings will now become private to protect our clients identity and any purchase prices. Feedback will still remain veiwable to the public.

Condition:

• This lot comes to you AS-IS with no implied warranties or guarantees
• This watch is in good running condition however, we have no service records for this timepiece
• Movement is bright and clean 
• Crystal clean and clear N.O.S. condition
• Dial shows almost perfect only having a couple of very tiny flakes on the very edge of the dial which can be seen under magnification
• Gold filled case shows wear with light to moderate scratches throughout. There is plating loss as shown at the riser/bow area and on the very edge of the back cover. The back cover has a dark line and that is the very beginning of it breaking through and what looks to be a larger ring of wear, is actually an optical illusion. The ONLY brassing on the back cover is the very thin dark line you see in the picture

Please note that when we offer a 14-day return on our items they must meet the requirements as per eBay policy. Ebay and PayPal may have extended time frames to file a claim against defects however, we do not honor anything over a 14 day period unless otherwise stated. Our inventory consists mainly of used items anywhere from 1 year old to 180 years old and usually have some type of mechanical motor or machine driving it. We do our best to describe them accurately however, we cannot foresee the future and old parts can break at any time without warning, and without visible flaw. If you have a problem, please call Customer Service 586-255-4433 and we will always try to find a solution for you. Once an eBay claim is filed, our hands are tied and we must follow their guidelines.

About Us

We are a small clock and watch shop that is family owned and operated and we have been in business for over 13yrs. We believe in ethical business practices according to the sworn oath the NWACC requires for membership. We pay special attention to trying to uphold and protect the hobby of collecting clocks and watches and we try to disclose anything that has been done to alter a particular timepiece. More importantly, we do not hack apart timepieces strictly to make profit and anything that we sell as parts either comes to us this way or, it is too far gone for restoration.

Shipping

As per eBay/Paypal Policies we only ship to your registered address you have on file. And we will use the least expensive methods to save you as much as possible. Many larger items are calculated Parcel Select however, they may go Priority Mail instead. International Buyers are responsible for all duties and taxes that may be accessed by your country's customs agency and we ship via eBay Global Shipping Program. On items exceeding a final value of $750.00(item+shipping) a signature is required. Some items can go Express International via USPS office however, Jewelry and Watches MUST go Global Shipping or DHL which starts at approx. $75.00. Please consider this when placing an offer or making a bid.

Feedback

When leaving feedback please take into consideration that we strive to provide you with the best possible customer service and offer as detailed of a description as we can. We NEVER mislead buyers or use shady descriptions to trick buyers into making a purchase with us. Our shipping is done in house where we use the utmost care in packaging your item(s) so they arrive to you unharmed. We also are not in the practice of making money on postage and try to keep the pricing as close to actual as we can however, the shipping calculator eBay uses is not our own and we have noticed the quoted prices vs. actual can vary. We charge a small fee for handling which goes towards the purchase of bubble wrap.

To our customers both new and old, THANK YOU! for all of your business and sharing in our passion to keep time alive and passing it on!
