The availability of Additional Benefits is based on your Access Level, as further described herein and in other Chrono 6538 Agreements.

Basic Rules about the Chrono 6538 Service
Members may access watches from Chrono 6538 in accordance with these Terms and Conditions and any other applicable Chrono 6538 Agreements. Chrono 6538 or its supplier(s) retain ownership of watches at all times, and Member shall not take any actions that are inconsistent with such ownership (such as selling, lending, renting, altering or modifying any watch or other item). Members also agree to comply with any terms, conditions, or policies that Chrono 6538 may provide from time to time.
Receipt of the Products
We will deliver watches to you via secure courier delivery. You bear responsibility for the items delivered in accordance with your instructions. We will only ship to your home address, unless instructed by you to deliver to an alternative address. You bear responsibility for the items delivered to an alternative address in accordance with your instructions. You further acknowledge that shipping to an address where an individual, preferably yourself, can physically receive the item is highly recommended. In the event that you are not present to physically receive a watch, you agree to bear all liability for loss, theft or disappearance of the watch left unattended or signed for by someone else on your behalf. Please inspect your watch carefully on receipt and to immediately notify Chrono 6538 of any obvious damage or issue. Depending on the issue we may ask you to return a watch for a replacement watch, which we will do once the original watch is returned.
Use of the Watches
You will treat all watches you receive from Chrono 6538 with great care. You are responsible for all loss of, or destruction or damage to, any watch due to theft, mysterious disappearance, fire, or any other cause, other than normal wear and tear, including, but not limited to, an alteration or alterations made by the member or on behalf of a member without the expressed authorization of Chrono 6538, the exchange of an Chrono 6538 product for any other product, regardless of value, or disregard for special care or maintenance required for a specific Chrono 6538 watch. In the case that a watch is stolen and a police report filed, Chrono 6538 should be made aware immediately. However, Chrono 6538 cannot guarantee that a lost or stolen watch will be replaced without cost to the Member. If desired, you can add your membership to your existing insurance policy/policies via a blanket jewellery schedule (contact Chrono 6538 for additional information). If you return any watch with damage exceeding normal wear and tear, as determined by Chrono 6538 in its sole discretion, you agree that Chrono 6538 may charge your credit card and collect a repair/replacement fee for such watch. The amount of the repair/replacement fee will vary depending on the extent of damage and/or the replacement cost of the damaged, destroyed, or lost watch.
Return of the Products; Extensions
We will always provide you with a packing box and pre-paid return-shipping label upon delivery of a watch. Approximately 14 days prior to the date any watch is to be returned to Chrono 6538, we will send you an email asking you to return the watch using the box and pre-paid shipping label that we have provided. If you need a new return box and shipping label, contact Q to provide you with new return materials. We will not send your next scheduled watch until the previous watch has been received. If you fail to return any watch on its scheduled return date, a late fee of five percent (5%) of the retail value of such watch may be charged to you for each day after the date such watch was due to be returned, and you agree to pay such fees, up to the full retail value of the watch (as determined by Chrono 6538). You agree that Chrono 6538 may charge you the full retail value of any watch not received by Chrono 6538 within fourteem (14) days of the date it was due to be returned. Membership Fees will continue to accrue until all applicable late fees and repair/replacement fees have been received.
Purchase of Watches from our Stock
You can contact us at any time via our website or email, to learn the current purchase price of any watch provided to you or available in stock. If you pay us the full quoted price and are in possession of the watch, the watch is yours to keep; otherwise we will promptly ship it to you. All watches sold to members are provided on an “AS IS” basis and potentially without warranty of any kind. The purchase of a watch or watches from inventory is a separate transaction from your membership and does not affect any term thereof.
