Om butiken

GÖTEBORG | Reg. October 2008

Marcels Watch Group har sedan starten levererat vintageklockor och fickur över hela världen. Vi har en ambition om att ha 100% nöjda kunder och ska nå detta genom produkter i enastående skick, kunskap om vad vi säljer och transparens. Vi är alltid ärliga med vad som säljs, vi redigerar inte bort skavanker från bilder och vi försöker alltid visa produkternas värsta sidor.

Sedan 2008 har vi lyckats att inte få några negativa omdömen. Det innebär inte att vi inte haft produkter som fallerat men vår kundservice har aldrig gjort det och vi ämnar att fortsätta ha det så.

THE COLOR OF THE DIAL
Obviously the original color of any dial is desireable. Most dials were once treated with a clear varnish which was more or less resistant to humidity and sun. Either the varnish could crack, become discolored or even peel off the dial. We are grading the dial color from the original color the dial had. We are grading the the dial in light correspondent to normal day light and the color is graded from left to right where “Riverside” is meaning more or less original color, or as close as possible to original color

Riverside – None or insignificant discoloration
Top Wesselton – Very small, even discoloration which is difficult to actually distinguish
Faint – Minor discoloration which visibally has changed the original color
J-Plus – Obvious discoloration, however not curdleing with the original color
VLY – Obvious discoloration which is uneven, mottled or is curdlin with the original color

THE DIALS DAMAGE CONDITION
The dial is graded from a damage perspective and if it has been restored in any way. A restored dial can never reach the top grade no matter how good it has been restored. The damages are through a five time magnifier and we are looking for varnish damages, damages which has penetrated the varnish and eventual damages on indexes and hands. The grade results in “Flawless” or worse where Flawless means that the dial has no to or almost no visable damages under a five time magnifier. I.e. vanish damages which are visable with the magnifier but hardly shown in nomal size might be disregarded. Hand are not as harshly judged since they are replaceable but indexes are parts of the dal and are judged likewise. The grading is made in light equivalent to daylight.

“R” in front of any grade means restored, rediald or partially redialed.

Flawless – Flawless without magnifier but minor damages might be seen when magnified 5 times.
VVSD – Very small to minimal damages, only surface damages which has not damaged the dial or the dial color but only the varnish.
VSD1 – Minor damages that might have penetrated the varnish but hardly visable.
VSD2 – Somewhat more obvious damages which are visable without magnification.
DG1 – The dial has obvious damages, clustered or single.
DG2 – The dial has consistently damages.

THE CONDITION OF THE CASE
The case is graded dependent of scratches, damages and shape. A vintage watch case will inevitable have som trace of wear and use why it can never be flawless, even if so called “NOS”. The grading is done on polished as well as non-polished cases. NP will indicate “Non-Polished” wheras P will indicate that the case at some point most likely was “Polished”. The grade of the case will lead to any of the grades below.

“P” in front of any grade means polished, not necessarely by Marcels.

NP-SurfaceP – Only minor traces of wear and use like small hairlines or minor case opening damages. Most of which are removable through polishing without changing the shape significantlly.
NP-Trace – Traces of wear and use will excist, little to normal in relation to the age of the watch.
NP-DG – Indicates that the case is in the top two grades but one or more obvious and clear damages are present like a dent, notsh or “ding”.
NP-S-Loss – Indicates that the case is in the top two gradings but that it has lost its shape due to wear if “NP” or a polish if “P”. For instance, sharp edges are softened and somewhat shape difference is appearent.
Heavy-D – Indicates that the case is heavaly damaged with several deeper scratches, notches or “dings”. Gold plated cases might also have lost the plating visible, restoring the case would lead to heavy shape loss.

Wording

Factory original = The same original part that was mounted on the watch when sold the first time.

Original part = Part from the manufacturer itself and sold by the same manufacturer the first time sold.

Aftermarket part = A part created to look similar or identical to an original part. It is not created by the manufacturer and the manufacturer does no longer creat those parts.

Generic part = A part that does not have a certain brand and does not look like an original part but will be fully functional (some times even specifically made) with a certain watch or movement. Like a main spring that is not made by ETA but another spring manufacturer who does not brand it as ETA.

Fake part = A part that is made to imitate a part made by the manufacturer and the manufacturer still make this part and offers it for sale.
