Frequently asked questions
Here you’ll find answers to the questions we’re asked most often — from shipping and delivery times to winder compatibility and returns. And if you ever need help that isn’t covered here, just message us. We’re always happy to assist.
-
Orders normally dispatch within 1–2 business days.
During Black Friday and Christmas, dispatch may take slightly longer due to volume, but we always prioritise time-sensitive gifts when you tell us. -
No — this is very common during busy periods.
Couriers may take 24–72 hours to complete the first scan even after the parcel leaves our warehouse.
Tracking will update once it reaches the next depot. -
Yes, we ship to most countries worldwide. Select your currency using the converter in the top right-hand corner of the website for the best local prices. International shipping times vary by location.

Some items ship separately to protect them from damage (e.g., watch winders + Voyager cases).
Your remaining item is on its way and will arrive shortly with its own tracking updates. -
If local stock sells out (especially during BFCM/Christmas), we ship from our international warehouse to avoid delays.
Product quality is the same, and you’ll receive the full tracking journey. -

Express refers to the delivery speed after your parcel is scanned by the courier.
If the first scan is delayed (usually during peak periods), tracking may appear slow at the start — but express speeds still apply once the parcel enters the active network. -
Some items (e.g., personalised engraving items like the Voyager) ship from our international warehouse when local stock runs out. This prevents delays to your main item.
Both parcels will arrive, just potentially at different times. -
Most commonly, an email wasn’t entered at checkout.
Just contact us and we’ll add it manually and resend everything. -

Please note that under Article 14(1) of Directive 2011/83/EU, customers are responsible for the cost of return shipping. A prepaid label will be provided through our withdrawal portal; the label cost will be deducted from your refund.
We will issue your refund within fourteen (14) days of receiving notification of your cancellation, or, if later, once we have received the returned goods or you have provided proof that the goods have been shipped back to us.

Couriers may redirect if:
• The driver can’t safely access the address
• There’s a mismatch in apartment/unit numbers
• It’s faster to reroute through a different hubWe’ll monitor it and make sure it gets to you.
-
We completely understand how frustrating slow shipping can be — especially when you’re waiting on a gift.
Once your parcel is with your local couriers, we’re unfortunately not able to make the couriers move faster. They operate independently from us, and during peak periods (BFCM and Christmas especially), they can experience delays.
The fastest way to get real-time updates is to call the courier directly with your tracking number. They can give you more detailed information about your parcel’s exact location.
That said, you can always message us too — we’re happy to check the tracking, monitor the movement, and escalate things if it looks stuck longer than normal.

Once it’s with the courier, we can’t edit it directly, but you can request an address change through the courier’s tracking portal.
If they can’t update it, it may return to us — then we can resend it. -
Take a photo as soon as you can and message us — we’ll replace it right away.
