Mido Warranty

Mido

Your MIDO® watch is warranted by Mido S.A. for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of purchase under the terms and conditions of this warranty. The international MIDO® warranty covers material and manufacturing defects existing at the time of delivery of the purchased MIDO® watch ("defects"). The warranty only comes into force if the warranty certificate is dated, fully and correctly completed and stamped by an official MIDO® dealer ("valid warranty certificate").

During the warranty period and by presenting the valid warranty certifi-cate, you will have the right to have any defect repaired free of charge. In the event that repairs are improper to restore the normal conditions of use of your MIDO® watch, Mido S.A. guarantees its replacement by a MIDO® watch of identical or similar characteristics. The warranty for the replacement watch ends twenty-four (24) months after the date of purchase of the replaced watch.

This manufacturer's warranty does not cover:

• the life of the battery

• normal wear and tear and aging (e.g. scratched crystal; alteration of the colour and/or material of non metallic straps and chains, such as leather, textile, rubber; peeling of the plating);

• any damage on any part of the watch resulting from abnormal / abu-sive use, lack of care, negligence, accidents (knocks, dents, crushing, broken crystal, etc.), incorrect use of the watch and non-observance of the use directions provided by Mido S.A.;

• indirect or consequential damages of any kind resulting from e.g. the use, the non-functioning, the defects or the inaccuracy of the MIDO® watch;

• the MIDO® watch handled by non-authorized persons (e.g. for bat-tery replacement, services or repairs) or which has been altered in its original condition beyond Mido S.A.'s control.

Any further claim against Mido S.A. e.g. for damages additional to the above described warranty is expressly excluded, except mandatory statutory rights the purchaser may have against the manufacturer.

The above manufacturer's warranty:

• is independent of any warranty that may be provided by the seller, for which he carries sole responsibility;

• does not affect the purchaser's rights against the seller nor any other mandatory statutory rights the purchaser may have against the seller.

The Mido S.A.'s customer service ensures the perfect maintenance of your MIDO® watch. If your watch needs attention, rely on an official MIDO® dealer or an authorized MIDO® Service Center: they can guar-antee service according to Mido S.A.'s standards.
