| Post subject: | warranty question |
Hi Guys. So my wife purchased me a quartz Aquaracer for my birthday a little over three years ago from the mall by her office. The battery died this past Tuesday so I need to get it replaced. As i was looking through the paperwork I noticed the warranty card was not dated by the AD. I am assuming that Tag will have some record of when the watch was purchased and that the warranty card even though its undated wont help get the battery fixed? Thanks |

I'm pretty sure Tag would have no record of when a watch was sold unless the watch was registered with them post-sale....... which I assume it wasn't. (That's if Tag even has a registration system. I don't know, as I'm not a Tag expert). But irrespective of that, I personally wouldn't expect the battery to be covered by the warranty anyway, so I think you'd be out of luck on that one. |

Pretty standard for all brands to exclude battery coverage from a warranty because they are considered consumables. |

Breitling cover battery replacement, if necessary, within the warranty period don't they? I thought that was the purpose of the little sticker with the month/year you see on the back of new quartzes, ie to advise the AD of the date point at which to replace the battery of a watch in stock in order for it to have good battery life when sold. |

That's the purpose of the sticker, but that's different from warranty coverage. I'm not aware of a replacement battery being included in the warranty, although I'm not a quartz guy so that might not be saying much. |
