Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 784 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company, finding the service trustworthy and the purchasing process clear and easy to navigate. Customers appreciate the various safeguards, such as the buyer protection scheme and the escrow service, which instill confidence, especially when buying from international sellers. The website is praised for its ease of use, intuitive search functions, and the extensive selection of watches available from around the world. Many reviewers highlight the smooth transactions, excellent communication, and prompt delivery of well-packaged products that match their descriptions. However, some customers also noted issues with product descriptions being misleading, leading to unexpected costs for additional parts.

There were also concerns about the delivery process for high-value items, with some parcels left without a signature, and difficulties in obtaining refunds for defective watches.

A safe place to shop!

The platform is easy to use, intuitive to search with, and confidence inspiring above all else. This is my first purchase via the C24, and undoudbtedly will not be my last.

Peace of mind and a straightforward service

Website is great as a middle-man experience, but wouldn't accept my credit card for a purchase from a Japanese dealer. Phoned the help desk but they couldn't resolve it. Might have been my bank - but, we got there and Chrono 24 gives assurance and security when buying high quality items internationally. Would use again without hesitation.

Clean and trustworthy process and choices

Purchasing process was clear and I could select easily a professional seller for my search, a buyer protection scheme as well as a certified watch. The process of chrono24 only releasing the funds upon confirmed delivery by the buyer was another level of trust.

Interaction with the seller through the app was quick and efficient, very responsive in fact. I felt I could really trust this ecosystem. Can only recommend.

Interaction with seller started in a Bank holiday week end! 23 may :) that was unexpected!

I would have given more but for the VAT…

I would have given more but for the VAT demanded by DHL Although I see in the fine print that VAT was not included I dont think this is usual so it was not expected. I think this needs to be made rather more prominant in your posting. The watch was completely fine and everything was as advertized.

One star is being generous

One star is being generous. Three times I have tried to sell a watch to Chrono24 and they say that they will be in contact within 1-3 days which does not happen with no contact whatsoever. I personally find their communication to be shocking!

The way to buy in the pre-owned market.

I wanted a Ball watch, but new is too expensive so I decided to try the pre-owned market, which led me to Chrono24. I very much liked the various safeguards which give protection when you buy. Chrono24 listed a number of Ball watches, but my eye was attracted to an unused 2025 watch, the Engineer King, with day/date as I wanted. I offered the asking price and am delighted with the watch, which is on my wrist as I write. The buying process went smoothly. I recommend Chrono24 if you're thinking of buying in the pre-owned market.

Chrono24 is the best!

The item was exactly as listed. Brand new and packaged incredibly well. It arrived from Japan in 4 days! Seller Jihousha was excellent overall. I highly recommend using Chrono24 to import watches.

I had an excellent experience…

I had an excellent experience purchasing a watch through Chrono24. The communication throughout the entire process was outstanding—clear, prompt, and professional from start to finish. The watch was dispatched and delivered incredibly quickly, exceeding my expectations.

Everything was handled smoothly, and I felt informed and reassured at every stage of the purchase. The watch arrived exactly as described and in perfect condition.

I would not hesitate to use Chrono24 again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a luxury watch with confidence. An exceptional service experience all round.
