Effective Date: September 9, 2026
Last Updated: September 9, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Second Tick Co. website, online store, related features, and services (collectively, the “Site”), and purchases made directly through the Site.
The Site is operated by Tick & Tock, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company, doing business as Second Tick Co. (“Second Tick Co.,” “Second Tick,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). The Site may be hosted, powered, supported, or otherwise facilitated by third-party service providers.
Please read these Terms carefully before using the Site or placing an order.
By accessing or using the Site, and particularly by placing an order after being provided notice of or access to these Terms, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by the policies incorporated into them by reference.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not use the Site or place an order through it.
The version of these Terms in effect when an order is accepted will generally govern that order, except to the extent applicable law requires otherwise.
Second Tick Co. currently sells directly through the Site only to customers and delivery addresses within the United States that are accepted by our checkout system.
We may expand, restrict, or otherwise change the geographic availability of our products or services in the future.
You must be at least 18 years old or otherwise legally capable of entering into a binding contract to use the Site or purchase products from us. Where applicable law permits use or purchases by a person with the permission of a parent or legal guardian, the required permission must be obtained.
Customer accounts, when offered, are optional unless otherwise stated.
If you create an account, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your login credentials and for activity occurring through your account to the extent permitted by law.
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete account, contact, billing, payment, and shipping information and to promptly correct information that becomes inaccurate or outdated.
We may suspend or terminate an account, restrict access to the Site, or refuse future orders where we reasonably believe there has been fraud, abuse, harassment, repeated misuse of chargeback procedures, violation of these Terms, unlawful activity, security threats, or other conduct harmful to Second Tick Co., our customers, or third parties.
These Terms may apply to products offered by Second Tick Co., including:
watches and other timepieces;
clocks;
smart or connected timekeeping devices;
watch straps and bands;
batteries;
watch and timepiece parts;
watchmaking tools or equipment; and
related accessories and other products we may offer.
Not every category will necessarily be offered at all times.
Many products sold by Second Tick Co. are pre-owned, vintage, older, discontinued, or otherwise previously owned.
Unless an individual product listing expressly states otherwise, customers should expect that pre-owned items may display evidence of prior ownership, age, handling, storage, maintenance, or use. This may include scratches, scuffs, wear, discoloration, fading, patina, marks, surface imperfections, aging, or other cosmetic characteristics consistent with the item's condition and history.
Vintage, older, and pre-owned items may also contain age-related fragility, deterioration, or wear that is not readily visible.
Customers should use reasonable care when wearing, winding, setting, cleaning, opening, resizing, repairing, transporting, storing, or otherwise handling such items.
These disclosures do not permit Second Tick Co. to knowingly misrepresent a product and do not eliminate rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be waived.
For individually listed pre-owned items, product photographs are intended to depict the actual item offered for sale unless the listing expressly states otherwise.
Products are photographed under particular lighting and photography conditions. The appearance of color, finish, texture, wear, patina, reflectivity, and other characteristics may vary because of lighting, photography equipment, image processing, screen settings, display technology, viewing conditions, and similar factors.
Measurements, dimensions, wrist-size estimates, case measurements, colors, dates, production periods, ages, and similar specifications may be approximate unless expressly represented as exact.
Customers are responsible for reviewing available measurements, sizing information, photographs, condition information, and fit guidance before purchasing.
Product titles, descriptions, photographs, specifications, pricing, and other Site content are provided for shopping and informational purposes. We may correct or update such information when appropriate.
Second Tick Co. will not knowingly misrepresent a product. Specific factual representations that form part of an accepted order will be respected, subject to applicable law and the error, availability, and order-cancellation provisions of these Terms.
Unless an individual listing expressly states that a watch or other timepiece has been pressure-tested or otherwise specifically verified for water resistance, water resistance is not guaranteed.
Customers should not expose an unverified watch or timepiece to water based solely on its original manufacturer rating, case markings, design, age, or historical specifications.
Mechanical and automatic watches can naturally vary in timekeeping performance because of age, condition, movement characteristics, position, temperature, maintenance history, magnetism, power reserve, usage, and other factors.
Unless an individual listing expressly provides a particular accuracy representation or tolerance, Second Tick Co. does not promise that a mechanical or automatic watch will maintain a specific seconds-per-day accuracy.
A quartz watch may have a fresh battery installed before listing or sale when stated or applicable.
Installation of a fresh battery does not constitute a guarantee of any particular future battery life. Battery longevity can vary based on the battery, movement, functions, storage, age, condition, use, and other factors.
Unless an individual listing expressly states otherwise, a watch or other timepiece should not be assumed to have been recently serviced, overhauled, restored, professionally maintained, or comprehensively inspected internally.
Pre-owned watches and other products may have been repaired, serviced, modified, restored, or altered before coming into Second Tick Co.’s possession.
Accordingly, unless an individual listing expressly states otherwise, we do not guarantee that every component of a pre-owned item is original to the item or original from its manufacturer.
An item may contain replacement, aftermarket, service, non-original, previously repaired, or otherwise substituted components.
Nothing in this section permits Second Tick Co. to knowingly make a false representation regarding components or originality.
Second Tick Co. represents authenticity based on our knowledge and the information reasonably available to us.
Unless an individual listing expressly states that a product has undergone professional or independent third-party authentication, customers should not assume that such authentication has been performed.
Second Tick Co. is an independent reseller. Unless expressly stated otherwise, we are not affiliated with, authorized by, sponsored by, approved by, or endorsed by any manufacturer or brand whose products may appear on the Site.
Names, trademarks, logos, and other brand identifiers belonging to third parties remain the property of their respective owners and may be used on the Site for legitimate identification or description of products.
Manufacturer warranties on pre-owned products may have expired, may not transfer to subsequent owners, may be subject to manufacturer requirements, or may otherwise be unavailable.
Unless an individual listing expressly states that a valid manufacturer warranty is included, no manufacturer warranty should be assumed.
Second Tick Co. does not provide a separate voluntary store warranty unless one is expressly stated in the applicable product listing, checkout terms, or official policy.
This section does not exclude or limit any implied warranty, statutory warranty, consumer remedy, or other right that applicable law does not permit us to exclude or limit.
Bracelet sizing and maximum-wrist measurements are approximate unless expressly stated otherwise.
Additional bracelet links are not included or guaranteed unless the applicable listing states that they are included.
Customers should not assume that a bracelet can be enlarged beyond the maximum wrist size stated in the listing. Obtaining additional compatible links, where possible, may be the customer's responsibility.
Many Second Tick Co. products, particularly pre-owned watches and timepieces, are unique or available in quantities of one.
Displaying a product as available on the Site does not guarantee that it will remain available until an order is accepted.
An item may become unavailable because of a simultaneous sale through another sales channel, inventory discrepancy, damage discovered during fulfillment, technical error, loss, fraud concern, or another legitimate reason.
We may update availability or discontinue products or services at any time before an order has been accepted.
Submitting an order is an offer to purchase the products identified in the order.
An automated order confirmation, payment authorization, receipt, or similar communication acknowledges that we received the order but does not by itself constitute acceptance of the order.
Unless applicable law requires otherwise, an order is accepted by Second Tick Co. when we ship the order.
We reserve the right to hold, limit, decline, refuse, or cancel an order before acceptance for legitimate reasons, including:
a pricing, description, inventory, or technical error;
an item becoming unavailable;
payment failure or reversal;
inability to verify payment or customer information;
reasonable suspicion of fraud or unauthorized payment;
abuse or attempted circumvention of Site rules;
unusually large or bulk purchasing activity;
reasonable belief that the transaction involves unauthorized commercial resale, inventory manipulation, or circumvention of purchase limits;
sanctions concerns, money laundering, unlawful conduct, or other prohibited activity; or
another circumstance in which fulfillment would be unlawful, unsafe, fraudulent, impossible, or inappropriate.
If we cancel an order after payment has been captured, we will provide any refund required by applicable law.
Prices may change at any time before purchase.
We may correct typographical errors, obvious pricing errors, inaccurate descriptions, inventory errors, technical errors, or other mistakes appearing on the Site.
If an error is discovered after an order is submitted but before the order is accepted, we may correct the error and, when appropriate, cancel the affected order and refund any amount collected.
We will not knowingly use this provision to avoid a valid accepted transaction merely because a product later increases in market value.
By providing a payment method, you represent that you are authorized to use that payment method for the transaction.
Payments may be processed by independent payment processors or other third-party providers. Their additional terms and privacy practices may apply to their services.
We may delay, hold, decline, or cancel an order where a payment is declined, reversed, disputed, cannot reasonably be verified, or presents a reasonable fraud or security concern.
For fraud-prevention or transaction-verification purposes, we may request additional reasonable information or verification before accepting or shipping an order. If requested verification cannot reasonably be completed, we may cancel the order.
Second Tick Co. will collect sales tax and other transaction taxes where legally required.
Customers remain responsible for any applicable tax, duty, governmental assessment, or similar charge that applicable law places on the customer and that was not collected by us at checkout.
The Shipping Policy posted on the Site and incorporated into these Terms contains additional shipping information.
As of the Effective Date of these Terms, standard U.S. shipping is free for watch and other timepiece orders purchased directly through the Site.
We may change that shipping policy prospectively.
Shipping for straps, bands, batteries, parts, tools, equipment, accessories, or other non-timepiece products may be free or subject to a charge depending on the product, order, promotion, or circumstances. Any applicable shipping charge will be disclosed through the applicable listing, Shipping Policy, or checkout process.
Shipping and delivery dates are estimates unless expressly stated otherwise.
Second Tick Co. is not responsible, to the extent permitted by law, for delays caused by carriers, severe weather, natural disasters, transportation interruptions, government action, or other events reasonably outside our control.
If a shipment is lost or materially damaged while in transit before confirmed delivery, Second Tick Co. may investigate the matter with the carrier before determining the appropriate remedy.
Where a remedy is appropriate, we may provide a refund or, at our discretion, a replacement. Replacement is subject to availability and may not be possible for unique or one-of-a-kind items.
We will reasonably cooperate with appropriate carrier investigations or claims.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, risk of loss generally passes to the customer when the shipment has been properly delivered to the delivery location. Carrier tracking showing a package as delivered may constitute evidence of delivery.
A delivery scan does not eliminate any responsibility that applicable law places on Second Tick Co., nor does it excuse a shipping or fulfillment error caused by Second Tick Co.
If a package was properly delivered and is subsequently lost or stolen, responsibility will generally rest with the customer to the extent permitted by law.
If an order is returned to sender because the customer supplied an incorrect or incomplete shipping address, refused delivery, or failed to retrieve or accept the package, we may refund the order less the actual outbound and return shipping costs we incurred, to the extent permitted by law.
That deduction will not apply when the return was caused by Second Tick Co.’s error or by a carrier problem outside the customer's reasonable control.
The Return and Refund Policy posted on the Site is incorporated into these Terms.
Unless a product-specific term provides additional rights, eligible returns may be requested within 60 days after the customer receives the order.
The same 60-day period applies to claims that an item arrived damaged, defective, or materially not as described. We do not impose a separate shorter reporting period for those claims.
Customers must contact Second Tick Co. through the designated Contact Us process and obtain return instructions before sending an item back.
A return sent without first contacting us may be refused or may be ineligible for a refund to the extent permitted by law.
A return request made after the applicable 60-day period may also be denied, subject to any rights that applicable law requires us to honor.
For eligible returns based on fit, style, personal preference, or change of mind, the customer is responsible for return shipping costs.
If a product arrives damaged, defective, or materially not as described and qualifies for return, Second Tick Co. will cover the return shipping cost and provide a prepaid return label.
Returned products must be returned in the same condition in which they were received, together with all included components and materials, such as bracelet links, straps, accessories, boxes, packaging, manuals, or other items supplied with the order.
If an item is returned damaged, altered, incomplete, missing components, missing links, or otherwise materially changed from the condition in which it was received, Second Tick Co. may deny the refund or reduce the refund to reflect the loss in value, to the extent permitted by law.
Opening a case, resizing, repairing, modifying, replacing a battery, altering components, or having work performed by the customer or a third party may affect return eligibility or available remedies when that work alters or damages the product.
This provision does not eliminate remedies for a condition, defect, or nonconformity for which applicable law makes Second Tick Co. responsible and that was not caused by the customer's or third party's work.
For inventory control, authenticity review, fraud prevention, and return verification, Second Tick Co. may maintain records of serial numbers, model or reference numbers, product photographs, condition details, identifying marks, and other distinguishing characteristics, subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable law.
A return may be denied if we reasonably determine that the item returned is not the item originally sold to that customer.
Approved refunds will generally be issued to the original payment method.
After Second Tick Co. processes a refund, a bank, card issuer, payment processor, or other financial institution may require additional time to make the funds available.
Second Tick Co. does not charge a restocking fee on approved returns under the current Return and Refund Policy.
We encourage customers to contact Second Tick Co. and allow us a reasonable opportunity to resolve an order issue before initiating a chargeback or other payment dispute.
Nothing in these Terms requires a customer to surrender or delay a chargeback, billing-error, cardholder, or payment-dispute right that applicable law permits the customer to exercise without first contacting us.
Knowingly fraudulent chargebacks, materially false claims, fabricated evidence, or intentional abuse of payment-dispute procedures may result in cancellation of pending orders, refusal of future orders, account restrictions, or other lawful protective measures.
Second Tick Co. may provide transaction records, tracking information, product photographs, communications, order information, return records, or other relevant evidence to a payment processor, financial institution, carrier, law-enforcement authority, or other appropriate party when reasonably necessary to investigate or respond to a claim and permitted by applicable law and our Privacy Policy.
Customers are responsible for using, installing, handling, maintaining, and storing products safely and appropriately and for following manufacturer instructions or safety information where applicable.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Second Tick Co. is not responsible for injury, property damage, product damage, or other loss caused by improper installation, misuse, unauthorized modification, negligent handling, use contrary to applicable instructions, or other conduct occurring after delivery that is outside Second Tick Co.’s responsibility.
This provision does not exclude any liability that applicable law does not permit us to exclude.
WARNING: BUTTON AND COIN-CELL BATTERIES CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IF SWALLOWED OR INSERTED INTO THE BODY.
KEEP BUTTON AND COIN-CELL BATTERIES AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
Customers should follow all applicable manufacturer warnings and instructions and use appropriate care when installing, removing, handling, storing, transporting, and disposing of batteries.
Nothing in these Terms replaces product-specific warnings, packaging requirements, manufacturer instructions, or safety requirements imposed by applicable law.
Unless an individual listing expressly states otherwise, Second Tick Co. does not guarantee that a watch, strap, bracelet, accessory, or other product is hypoallergenic or free from any particular metal, coating, chemical, adhesive, leather, synthetic material, or other substance.
Customers with known allergies, sensitivities, or skin reactions are responsible for evaluating whether a product is suitable for them and should discontinue use if an adverse reaction occurs.
Nothing in this section limits rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived.
Second Tick Co. may from time to time sell smartwatches or other connected or electronic timekeeping devices.
Unless an individual listing expressly states otherwise, we do not guarantee compatibility with any particular phone, computer, network, wireless service, application, account, operating system, accessory, third-party platform, or future software version.
Third-party manufacturers and service providers may change, discontinue, restrict, or terminate applications, networks, software, accounts, updates, or other functionality after a product is sold.
Second Tick Co. does not control those third-party decisions.
We may establish eligibility requirements, exclusions, expiration dates, purchase limits, redemption rules, or restrictions on combining promotions, coupon codes, discounts, or special offers.
To the extent permitted by law and any specific promotional terms, we may modify, suspend, terminate, refuse, or cancel a promotion before it has been validly redeemed as part of an accepted order.
These Terms are intended primarily to govern use of the Second Tick Co. Site and purchases made directly through it.
Second Tick Co. may also sell products through third-party marketplaces, sales platforms, or other channels.
A transaction completed through a third-party marketplace may be subject to that platform's terms, buyer-protection procedures, payment rules, shipping requirements, return rules, dispute processes, and other policies.
Where a marketplace's rules necessarily govern a transaction made through that marketplace or directly conflict with these Terms in a manner the marketplace controls, the applicable marketplace rules will govern that aspect of the marketplace transaction.
Except for third-party materials and intellectual property belonging to their respective owners, the Site and its original content are owned by, licensed to, or controlled by Tick & Tock, LLC / Second Tick Co.
This may include original product photographs, written descriptions, editorial content, graphics, designs, logos, branding, software, page layouts, and other materials.
Subject to these Terms, users may access the Site for ordinary personal, noncommercial shopping and informational purposes.
You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, scrape, systematically extract, commercially exploit, remove ownership notices from, or otherwise misuse protected Site content without authorization or a lawful basis to do so.
Nothing in these Terms restricts rights that applicable law expressly permits and does not allow us to claim ownership of third-party intellectual property.
You may not use the Site to:
violate applicable law or the rights of another person;
engage in fraud, deception, money laundering, sanctions evasion, or other unlawful activity;
interfere with the security, integrity, availability, or operation of the Site;
introduce malware, malicious code, or harmful technology;
gain or attempt to gain unauthorized access to systems, accounts, data, or networks;
scrape, crawl, harvest, or systematically extract Site content through unauthorized automated means;
use bots or other automated systems to interfere with purchasing, inventory availability, security systems, or ordinary Site operation;
impersonate another person or provide intentionally false transaction information;
infringe intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other legal rights;
harass, threaten, or abuse Second Tick Co. personnel, customers, service providers, or other persons; or
circumvent purchase limits, fraud controls, access restrictions, or other Site safeguards.
We may take reasonable measures to prevent, investigate, or respond to suspected violations.
Second Tick Co. may use or integrate with third-party providers, including ecommerce platforms, payment processors, shipping carriers, analytics providers, search services, advertising platforms, social-media platforms, fraud-prevention providers, and other technology or service providers.
Those services may be governed by their own terms, policies, privacy practices, availability, and security measures.
The Site may also contain links to third-party websites or services.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Second Tick Co. is not responsible for the independent content, conduct, policies, availability, security, or performance of third-party services that are outside our reasonable control.
Second Tick Co. may provide customer-support, product-discovery, or other messaging features through Shopify Inbox, including AI-powered functionality. We may refer to our storefront assistant as “Tick.”
Tick and other AI-assisted features may use information from our product catalog, store policies, knowledge-base materials, and other storefront content to generate responses. Depending on the functionality provided by Shopify, responses may also be personalized using information associated with a customer's interaction with Shopify or Shop services where permitted.
AI-generated responses are provided for convenience and informational purposes and may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or misunderstood.
AI-generated responses do not override or modify:
Information submitted through Tick or Shopify Inbox may be processed as described in our Privacy Policy.
Shopify provides and operates the underlying Shopify Inbox functionality and may use artificial-intelligence technologies to provide those features. Second Tick Co. does not control the particular AI models, infrastructure, or technology providers Shopify may use from time to time.
Routine statements or communications through social media, marketplace messages, chat features, customer-support interactions, or other informal channels do not, merely because they were made, amend these Terms or create additional contractual commitments.
A modification or additional commitment must be expressly confirmed by Second Tick Co. in writing as part of an applicable order, an official policy, or another communication clearly intended to create that commitment.
Nothing in this section negates an express warranty, factual representation, or other obligation that applicable law determines became part of the basis of the bargain or otherwise cannot lawfully be disclaimed.
By using the Site or transacting with Second Tick Co., you consent, to the extent permitted by law, to receive transactional, account, order-related, policy, and legal communications electronically.
Electronic communications may satisfy a legal requirement that a communication be provided “in writing” where applicable law permits electronic delivery.
This provision does not by itself constitute consent to receive marketing communications where separate consent is required by law.
We do not guarantee that the Site or any particular feature will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, timely, or error-free.
We may temporarily restrict, suspend, modify, or discontinue access to all or part of the Site for maintenance, updates, security, technical issues, legal compliance, operational needs, or other legitimate reasons.
Second Tick Co. strives to describe its products accurately and to honor the representations and obligations applicable to accepted orders.
The Site, its informational content, and digital or interactive features are provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we do not warrant that the Site itself will be uninterrupted, completely error-free, free of every harmful component, or suitable for every user's particular purpose.
Nothing in these Terms excludes, modifies, disclaims, or limits an implied warranty of merchantability, an implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, an express warranty, a statutory warranty, a consumer remedy, or any other warranty or right to the extent applicable law prohibits that exclusion, modification, disclaimer, or limitation.
The detailed disclosures in these Terms concerning pre-owned condition, age, measurements, service history, water resistance, timekeeping accuracy, components, batteries, photographs, compatibility, and similar product characteristics are intended to accurately describe the nature and limitations of the products sold, not to eliminate rights that applicable law makes nonwaivable.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Tick & Tock, LLC, Second Tick Co., and their respective owners, officers, employees, agents, and representatives will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential damages arising out of or relating to the Site, a transaction, or these Terms where such damages may lawfully be excluded or limited.
For claims arising out of or relating to a particular order, and only to the extent applicable law permits such a limitation, the aggregate liability of Tick & Tock, LLC / Second Tick Co. will not exceed the amount actually paid by the customer to Second Tick Co. for the specific order giving rise to the claim.
These limitations do not apply to any liability, personal-injury claim, warranty remedy, statutory remedy, fraud claim, intentional misconduct, gross negligence where applicable, or other right or remedy to the extent applicable law does not permit it to be excluded, waived, or limited.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to deprive a customer of a remedy that applicable law requires to remain available.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Tick & Tock, LLC, Second Tick Co., and their respective owners, officers, employees, agents, and representatives from third-party claims, liabilities, losses, damages, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful conduct, intentional misuse of the Site, infringement of another person's rights, or material violation of these Terms.
This provision does not require you to indemnify Second Tick Co. for liability that applicable law places on Second Tick Co. or that cannot lawfully be transferred to you.
Products sold by Second Tick Co. are sold as consumer goods or collectibles, not as investments or financial products.
We do not guarantee the future market value, resale value, collectibility, rarity premium, appreciation, depreciation, investment performance, or future demand for any watch or other product.
Product pricing, descriptions, opinions, historical information, or other Site content do not constitute financial, investment, securities, tax, or professional appraisal advice.
Before filing a lawsuit arising from or relating to these Terms, use of the Site, or a direct purchase from Second Tick Co., the parties agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally for 60 days, subject to the exceptions below and any applicable law.
A customer initiates the formal 60-day dispute-resolution process by submitting a written notice through the official Contact Us form on the Site and clearly identifying the communication as a:
“Formal Notice of Dispute.”
The Formal Notice of Dispute must reasonably identify:
the customer and appropriate contact information;
the relevant order number, if applicable;
the nature and factual basis of the dispute; and
the resolution the customer is requesting.
The 60-day informal-resolution period begins when Second Tick Co. receives a substantially complete Formal Notice of Dispute through the designated Contact Us form.
An ordinary return request, refund request, damaged-item report, shipping inquiry, cancellation request, customer-support inquiry, or other routine communication does not constitute a Formal Notice of Dispute and does not begin the formal 60-day dispute period unless the customer clearly invokes this formal process.
Social-media comments or direct messages, third-party marketplace messages, or other informal communications likewise do not, by themselves, constitute the designated Formal Notice of Dispute for purposes of this section.
If Second Tick Co. initiates a legal dispute, we will likewise provide reasonable written notice using contact information available to us and make a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally before filing suit where applicable.
During the 60-day period, both parties agree to participate reasonably and in good faith in efforts to resolve the dispute.
The 60-day requirement does not apply to the extent waiting would cause a party to lose a legal right, violate an applicable filing deadline, prevent legally necessary emergency or injunctive relief, or where applicable law otherwise prohibits or excuses the waiting period.
Nothing in these Terms shortens the statute of limitations or other time period that applicable law allows for bringing a claim.
These Terms and direct transactions governed by them are governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except to the extent applicable law requires otherwise or provides rights that cannot lawfully be waived by agreement.
Subject to applicable law and the informal dispute-resolution provision above, eligible legal proceedings arising from or relating to these Terms, the Site, or a direct purchase from Second Tick Co. will be brought in a state or federal court located in the State of Maryland having proper jurisdiction and venue.
This provision does not waive any consumer venue right or other procedural protection that applicable law makes nonwaivable.
These Terms do not require mandatory arbitration.
Second Tick Co.’s principal place of business, state of organization, or other business operations may change in the future. If the company relocates, reorganizes, or otherwise develops a different substantial legal connection, we may prospectively revise the governing-law or dispute-resolution provisions in accordance with Section 40. A later revision will not automatically rewrite the terms governing a previously accepted order.
Second Tick Co. may revise these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our business, products, services, technology, operations, policies, legal obligations, business structure, geographic location, or other legitimate circumstances.
Each revised version will display an updated effective or “Last Updated” date.
Unless applicable law permits or requires otherwise, revised Terms will operate prospectively.
A revision will not automatically alter the contractual terms governing an order that was already accepted before the revised Terms became effective.
Continued use of the Site after revised Terms become effective may constitute acceptance of the revised Terms where legally effective and where the user has received the notice or opportunity to review the revised Terms required by applicable law.
For material changes affecting an ongoing contractual relationship, Second Tick Co. will provide additional notice or obtain additional assent where required by applicable law.
The following policies, as applicable, are incorporated into these Terms by reference:
Privacy Policy
Shipping Policy
Return and Refund Policy
Product-specific terms stated in an applicable listing and transaction-specific terms presented at checkout may also form part of the agreement for an accepted order.
If there is a direct conflict concerning a particular subject, a more specific product-specific or transaction-specific term applicable to an accepted order will control that order to the extent of the conflict, and an incorporated policy directed specifically to a subject will generally control that subject unless these Terms expressly state otherwise.
Nothing in this priority provision permits a policy or listing to eliminate a right that applicable law makes nonwaivable.
Second Tick Co. may in the future offer services such as watch repair, restoration, servicing, consignment, sourcing, authentication, appraisal or valuation, or other specialized services.
Those services may be governed by separate service-specific terms, agreements, disclosures, estimates, work orders, or policies.
If service-specific terms directly conflict with these general Terms concerning the specialized service, the service-specific terms will control that issue to the extent permitted by law.
To the extent permitted by law, Second Tick Co. will not be liable for a delay or failure to perform caused by circumstances reasonably outside our control, including severe weather, natural disasters, fires, floods, transportation interruptions, carrier disruptions, labor disruptions, power outages, internet or telecommunications failures, cyberattacks, government action, war, civil disturbance, public emergencies, epidemics, or similar events.
This provision does not excuse obligations that applicable law requires us to perform despite such an event.
Second Tick Co. may assign or transfer its rights and obligations under these Terms in connection with a merger, sale, reorganization, transfer of the business or substantially all relevant assets, change in corporate structure, or similar transaction.
Customers may not assign or transfer their rights or obligations under these Terms without Second Tick Co.’s prior consent, except where applicable law provides otherwise.
Use of the Site or purchase of a product does not create a partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, fiduciary, franchise, or similar relationship between a customer and Tick & Tock, LLC / Second Tick Co.
The relationship created by an ordinary product transaction is that of seller and buyer, subject to these Terms and applicable law.
Unless these Terms expressly state otherwise, they are intended for the benefit of the parties to the applicable agreement and do not confer contractual enforcement rights on unrelated third parties.
If a provision of these Terms is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent lawfully permitted or severed to the extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.
A failure or delay by Second Tick Co. in enforcing any provision, right, or remedy does not constitute a permanent waiver of that provision, right, or remedy.
A waiver in one circumstance does not constitute a waiver in another circumstance unless expressly stated.
Except where these Terms or applicable law expressly provide otherwise, exercising one available right or remedy does not necessarily prevent a party from exercising another right or remedy available under these Terms or applicable law.
Section headings are provided for convenience and organization only and do not alter the meaning of these Terms.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, no provision will automatically be interpreted against Tick & Tock, LLC / Second Tick Co. solely because Second Tick Co. or its representatives participated in drafting the provision.
Mandatory consumer-contract interpretation rules, where applicable, remain unaffected.
These Terms, together with the incorporated Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, Return and Refund Policy, applicable product-specific terms, applicable checkout terms, and any other written terms expressly incorporated into an accepted transaction, constitute the complete agreement between the customer and Second Tick Co. concerning the customer's use of the Site and applicable direct purchase.
They supersede prior or contemporaneous understandings concerning those subjects to the extent permitted by law.
This section is subject to any express warranty, factual representation, or other obligation that applicable law treats as part of the bargain and does not permit to be disclaimed.
Provisions that by their nature should remain effective after completion of an order, termination of an account, or cessation of Site use will survive as appropriate.
This includes, where applicable, provisions concerning intellectual property, outstanding payment obligations, product records, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, governing law, and other provisions whose purpose requires continued effect.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude, restrict, disclaim, waive, shorten, or limit any warranty, right, remedy, cause of action, liability, consumer protection, filing period, or other legal protection that applicable law does not permit to be excluded, restricted, disclaimed, waived, shortened, or limited.
Where a provision of these Terms would otherwise conflict with a mandatory legal requirement, the mandatory requirement will control to the minimum extent necessary, and the remainder of these Terms will continue in effect.
For questions concerning these Terms, an order, a return, or another customer-service matter, please use the Contact Us form available on the Second Tick Co. Site.
A routine Contact Us submission does not initiate the formal dispute-resolution procedure.
To initiate that procedure, the submission must comply with the Formal Notice of Dispute requirements stated in Section 38.
