Frequently asked questions about custom watches

How much does a custom watch cost?

From €295, with free shipping worldwide. Text on the dial, the date magnifier and the sapphire caseback (on models that offer it) are included. Paid options: your logo on the dial +€10, caseback engraving +€10, side engraving +€10, your logo engraved on the caseback +€10, GMT hand +€40, extra strap +€39, priority production +€20, gift wrapping and message card +€10.

How long does delivery take?

Your watch is put together to order and delivered within 9 days in mainland France, home delivery included. Outside the European Union, customs duties or local taxes may be charged on delivery.

What can I customise?

The case, dial, bezel, hands and strap, then text or a logo on the dial, an engraving on the caseback or the side of the case and, depending on the model, a sapphire caseback to show off the movement.

Can I put a name or a logo on the dial?

Yes. Text fits on two lines of 20 characters, in ten lettering styles, at no extra cost. A logo (PNG, JPG, WebP or SVG) costs +€10; the dial takes either text or a logo, not both.

Which movement powers the watch?

An automatic Seiko movement: the Seiko NH35 for three-hand models and the Seiko NH34 for the GMT option. This kind of watch is often called a “seiko mod”: Modus Horlogerie designs it around this calibre.

What warranty do I get?

A 3-year warranty against any manufacturing defect: movement, case and water resistance, under normal use. After-sales service is handled in France.
