By placing an order, you acknowledge and agree that:
Your order is a preorder
Funds are captured immediately
Delivery will occur at a later date, as outlined below, after the price of the watch has been paid in full
The initial 50% deposit will only guarantee reservation of the piece in the production queue, and the second 50% payment will ensure the watch shipment is fulfilled
Orders are manufactured specifically based on preorder quantities once a minimum threshold of orders is reached. If the minimum threshold is not met, orders may be canceled and refunded.

Shipping costs are included in the purchase price unless otherwise stated.
Import duties, customs fees, and local taxes are handled as follows:
For certain destinations, orders may be shipped Delivered Duty Paid (DDP), meaning applicable import duties and taxes are included in the purchase price.

5. Cancellation Policy (7-Day Window)
Preorder Deposit
The initial payment of $1,225 constitutes a non-refundable preorder deposit after a 7-day cooling-off period.
Customers may request cancellation for a full refund within 7 calendar days of placing the preorder. After this 7-day period, the deposit becomes non-refundable, as production planning and supplier commitments are made based on confirmed preorder quantities.
Final Balance Payment
The remaining balance of $1,225 will be invoiced prior to shipment. Failure to remit the final balance within the stated payment window may result in cancellation of the order.
In such cases:
The initial preorder deposit will not be refunded.
Any final balance payment made may be subject to partial or full forfeiture depending on production status and incurred costs.
Production Threshold
All watches are manufactured based on preorder quantities once a minimum production threshold is reached. If the minimum threshold is not met, customers will receive a full refund of their deposit.
To request a cancellation, contact us at support@ardralabs.com within this window.
