Battery Act Notice – even though we mostly tick mechanically

We’re famous for watches that run without batteries – but every now and then, a quartz model sneaks into our range. And since the law makes no exception for rare cases, here’s the official statement:

You can return them free of charge to municipal collection points or anywhere batteries are sold. Naturally, we also take your used batteries back – simply send them, sufficiently stamped, to:

Batteries containing harmful substances are marked with the symbol of a crossed-out wheelie bin, sometimes accompanied by chemical symbols such as “Cd” (cadmium), “Hg” (mercury) or “Pb” (lead). Yes, it sounds technical – because it is.

PS: If you prefer a watch without a battery – we have plenty of those.
