General terms and conditions of Montres NORQAIN SA

Valid from 01 December 2018

 

1. Scope

1.1. These General terms and conditions apply to the contractual relation-ship between Montres NORQAIN SA (hereinafter referred to as “NORQAIN”) on the one hand, and their customers on the other hand, for both the sale of products via the website and in the shop.

1.2. All deliveries and services that NORQAIN carries out for the customer take place exclusively on the basis of the following General terms and conditions.

1.3. The current and binding version of the General terms and conditions as well as any additional agreements and supplements are published on the website of NORQAIN (www.norqain.com).

1.4. NORQAIN would like to inform the customer that if these General terms and conditions are rejected, no products may be ordered via this website or bought in the shop.

 

2. Contradiction between these General terms and conditions and the General terms and conditions of the customer

2.1. If these General terms and conditions contradict the General terms and conditions of the customer, the General terms and conditions of NORQAIN take precedence in all cases.

2.2. NORQAIN is not obliged to inform the customer at the time of the conclusion of the contract that the General terms and conditions of NORQAIN take precedence or whether there are any contradictions between the General terms and conditions of NORQAIN and the General terms and conditions of the customer.

 

3. Individual agreements

3.1. Individual agreements between the parties take precedence over these General terms and conditions. They must be in writing to be val-id.
3.2. The General terms and conditions of the customer are not deemed individual agreements.


4. Different language versions

If the different language versions of these General terms and condi-tions contain contradictions, the German version shall be authoritative.


5. Price information

The price of a product corresponds to the applicable information on this website and the information contained in the sale showcases, ex-cept in cases of obvious error. Prices are quoted, unless otherwise in-dicated, in Swiss Francs including VAT. The shipping costs and any customs and packing costs are payable in addition, unless stipulated otherwise.


6. Conclusion of contract

6.1. The display of goods in the showcases of NORQAIN as well as on their website does not constitute a binding offer to sell.

6.2. Orders made by the customer on this website are deemed to constitute an offer to purchase in order to acquire the respective product. Once the customer has completed the order, he will receive an automatic e-mail confirmation stating that the order has been received. This does not mean that the order has been accepted by NORQAIN. If the order is accepted by NORQAIN, the latter will send an order confirmation via e-mail and the ordered product will be sent to him according to these General terms and conditions. Upon confirmation of the order, a bind-ing contract exists between the customer and NORQAIN and the price becomes due for payment.

6.3. In the shop, the declaration of the willingness to buy constitutes an offer to the sales staff to make a purchase and is accepted by the sales staff. In so doing, a binding contract ensues between the customer and NORQAIN and the price becomes due for payment.

6.4. NORQAIN is free to accept or reject the offer.

6.5. NORQAIN reserves the right to withdraw from the contract if the desired goods are not in stock. Any payments made will be refunded.

6.6. For the purpose of covering any transactions and for reasons relating to the prevention of fraud, NORQAIN reserves the right, in particular, before acceptance of the order, to ask that the customer:
– confirm certain information to NORQAIN about his order by tel-ephone;
– provide NORQAIN with evidence of his identity (e.g. copy of ID card).

6.7. If the customer does not comply with this request within the specified time limit, NORQAIN reserves the right to refuse the order.


7. Right of withdrawal

7.1. The customer has the right to terminate the contract within 10 days without giving reasons. This right of withdrawal is only available to a private person who orders/buys the contractual products for personal, private use. The right of withdrawal is also limited to orders over the In-ternet.

7.2. This right of withdrawal does not apply in the case of goods that have been personalised or during the manufacture of which the customer personally chooses features of the goods or that have been tailored to the individual needs of the customer. In particular, this includes the engraving of a NORQAIN plate.

7.3. The goods will only be taken back if they are in good condition.

7.4. The customer must send back the unused product in the original packaging (in particular with the wrapper on and under the watch), with the warranty certificate, the purchase receipt and include a form explaining the contract cancellation, to NORQAIN or take it back to an official point of sale / NORQAIN dealer. For shipping purposes, the package is to be sent by registered parcel to the headquarters of NORQAIN in Switzerland (current address given on the website).

7.5. The period of 10 days begins on the day after delivery or purchase of the product. If the goods of a purchase order are sent separately, the period starts on the day after the delivery date of the last item.

7.6. Delivery costs for the shipment in either direction will not be covered by NORQAIN.

7.7. NORQAIN will refund the customer upon receipt of the goods in perfect condition. For the refund, the same means of transaction will be used as for the payment.

In accordance with international guarantee introduced by NORQAIN, for a period of two (2) years from the date of purchase any defective products that are purchased via this website or an official point of sale / NORQAIN dealer, will be repaired or if necessary replaced at the sole discretion of NORQAIN, regardless of the place of purchase of this product.
