Let our expertise be your peace of mind. We believe that buying a watch online should be simple, honest, and straightforward. Every watch in our collection goes through a rigorous review process by our watchmakers to ensure it is an authentic timepiece and meets our quality standards and that of its intended brand. To that end, we guarantee every watch listed on our site to be 100% authentic.
All watches are listed in USD for bank wire payment. Major credit cards are also accepted via secure payment link through Stripe, with a 4.5% processing fee. Our bank account is U.S.-based, which helps ensure a smooth and cost-efficient transaction for many clients.
For local Canadian clients, CAD quotes can be provided upon request.
To place an order, please provide your full name, shipping address, email, and phone number. An invoice will be emailed through our accounting software with detailed payment instructions, along with a shipping quote based on your location. If it’s your first time working with us, this email may occasionally land in your junk or spam folder—please check there if you don’t see it.
Taxes, tariffs, and import duties are not included in the listed price and may or may not apply based on destination.
The majority of our clients are based in the U.S. and internationally, and we’ve built a strong track record shipping watches across borders. We take a thoughtful and meticulous approach to each shipment to keep import costs low and the delivery process smooth, with no unexpected surprises.
If you have any questions or would like an estimate of total costs, feel free to contact us via email or WhatsApp—we’re happy to walk you through it before purchase.
We want you to be happy with your purchase. We understand that sometimes what you see online and how it appears in person can differ.
To that end, we offer a three (3) calendar day return privilege on all online purchases subject to the following conditions.
Any watch may be returned provided it is in the exact same condition as when it was sold and includes all boxes, papers, books, accessories, straps, buckles, and other items originally included with the purchase (if applicable). Products that have been worn, altered, damaged, serviced, opened, or otherwise modified after delivery will not be accepted for return.
Please notify us of your intention to return the watch before shipping it back. Returns must be shipped and postmarked within three (3) calendar days of the confirmed delivery date. All returns must be fully insured for their purchase value, and the customer assumes responsibility for the watch until it has been safely delivered back to us.
Original shipping, insurance, duties, taxes, customs charges, bank fees, currency conversion fees, and other third-party costs are non-refundable. Any return shipping or insurance costs, including the cost of a prepaid return label provided as a courtesy, will be deducted from the refund amount.
The following items are not eligible for return or refund:
• Watches sourced specifically for a client.
• Any item marked "Final Sale" on the invoice.
• Any purchase designated as Final Sale due to shipment holds, delayed shipping instructions, or other special shipping arrangements.
This return policy applies to online purchases only. All in-person sales are final.
Prior to shipment, we ensure that every watch is in proper working condition and is carefully checked by our professional watchmaker team. All watches purchased from discreet peacock include a 1 year warranty that commences from the purchase date of your watch. The warranty includes the mechanical functioning of the watch and any present complications.
Given that we primarily deal with vintage watches, our warranty unfortunately cannot cover everything. Excluded from the warranty are: water damage, turn and push buttons, crystal, bracelet & clasp and the watch strap. Improper use or damage caused by the owner or third parties are not covered by our warranty. The warranty is non transferable and only valid to the original purchaser. The warranty will be void if a third party worked on or opened the watch.
All warranty claims must be directly reported to us and include the original invoice. Customers can initiate a warranty claim by contacting us at hello@discreetpeacock.com.
Once a warranty claim has been approved, we will provide you with detailed shipping instructions. Customers are responsible for shipping costs associated with sending their watch for warranty repair. Discreet peacock will cover the shipping costs to return the repaired watch to you once repairs are completed. Customers receiving their merchandise back will not be reimbursed for any costs associated with incidental customs as it is returned to the customer’s country of residence.
Selling your watch privately can be daunting and logistically challenging, not to mention risky. Alternatively, selling directly to dealers may not yield the highest payout. By consigning your watch with us, you will have the best chance of obtaining the best price for your watch in a safe and stress free manner.
We use our extensive client database and sales platforms to look for a potential buyer for you. We are proactive in our approach, treat your watch as if it is our own, and work with our clients to ensure they are happy with the money they receive in their pocket.
The best way to get started with the consignment process is by filling out the complimentary quote form. Provide as much detail as possible including asking price, model information, condition and as many pictures deemed necessary. Upon reviewing your submission we will reach out to explain terms, fees and provide our opinion on the appropriate market value of your watch.
Once all key terms are agreed in good faith, we will email a consignment agreement outlining our arrangement for you to review and electronically sign. We will then follow up with providing a free and fully insured shipping label with detailed instructions on how to safely send your watch to us.
Upon arrival, our watchmakers will conduct a thorough inspection for quality, authenticity and timekeeping. This process takes from 5-10 day business days. To meet our quality standards, our watchmakers may recommend a service, part replacement or any other additional work. Any work undertaken on the watch will be agreed in advance and the cost is the responsibility of the owner.
If at this stage you are not in agreement with the recommended work, the watch is identified as counterfeit or not faithful to its initial description, we may refuse to consign your watch and will opt to return the watch to you at your expense.
Our consignment fees are commission-based and are collected at time of sale. Our commission fee range from 10-30% depending on the brand, model, condition and overall state of the market. Consignment fees are calculated based on final sale value of the watch. There are no upfront fees.
For example, let’s assume we sourced a buyer and agreed for the final sale price for your watch to be $5,000 USD. A sample payout will look like this:
If there were any pre-approved work that was done prior to listing the watch for sale (example: service, repair, etc.), these expenses would be deducted from the total payout. We begin processing payout to you once the buyer has received your watch packaged and the 3 day return policy has passed. Once this has occurred, we will wire you your payout within 72 hours.
To ensure maximum exposure, we require a minimum 3 month consignment term. Should you decide to cancel our arrangement prior to the end of our term, you will be charged an admin fee of $150 USD + the cost of return shipping and pre-approved service work performed (if any). If at the end of our consignment term the watch has not sold and you don’t wish to extend our arrangement, we will return your watch free of charge upon payment for any pre-approved service work performed (if any).
