These terms are a working draft of the policies of Founders Republic Watch Co. and are intended as a starting point — they should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before being relied upon. For specific questions or for the binding terms governing your reservation or purchase, please write to the concierge.
Every Founders Republic timepiece carries the Founders Republic Guarantee — our promise that each piece is authentic, individually numbered, and built to be carried forward.
This Guarantee covers material and workmanship defects under normal use for the period below. It does not limit any rights granted to you by applicable consumer protection law.
Each Heritage Edition piece is covered for two (2) years from the date of delivery against defects in movement, case, and presentation set components attributable to original manufacture.
To request warranty service, please write to the concierge at concierge@frwatchco.com with your name, the chapter and edition number of your piece, and a description of the issue. We will respond with shipping instructions.
Service under the Guarantee is performed at no cost to you. Shipping in both directions is covered by Founders Republic.
Every owner is invited to register their piece in the Republic Archive. Registration is not required to receive Guarantee service, but it streamlines authentication and provides early access to future chapters.
If a defect is confirmed under the Guarantee, we will at our discretion repair the affected component, replace it, or — in the rare case where neither is possible due to the limited nature of the edition — issue a refund of the purchase price.
The Founders Republic Guarantee includes a lifetime guarantee of authenticity. The individual numbering engraved on your caseback corresponds to the Certificate of Authenticity in your set and to the record held in the Republic Archive. We will verify authenticity for the original owner or any future owner upon request, indefinitely.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, this Guarantee is in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied. Founders Republic shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
For all service and warranty inquiries, please write to concierge@frwatchco.com.
