Fellows are unable to guarantee the working order or accuracy of any watches sold. Whilst Fellows makes every attempt to identify and disclose any custom attributes where possible, the absence of any disclosure is not a guarantee of authenticity, Fellows accepts no liability if an item is later found to be with non-brand alterations. Neither is it always possible to authenticate every component, this includes individual external and movement parts, watch glasses, hands, straps and buckles, this is often due to items having been previously maintained outside of authorised workshops, Fellows are therefore unable to accept any liability if any component or part is later found to be with issue - this includes compatible yet non-original brand parts and/or numbering that may limit maintenance options through workshops in the future.<p>
