Last updated: July 2026
These disclaimers apply across the WatchMerit platform β including individual watch pages, downloadable PDF reports, market digests and emails β wherever the relevant content type appears. They form part of our Terms of Service.
General information β no financial product advice
All content on this platform, including any score, rating, price estimate, forecast or commentary, is provided by WatchMerit for general information purposes only. It is not financial product advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any watch, and does not take into account your personal objectives, financial situation or needs. WatchMerit is not a financial services licensee. You should obtain independent professional advice and conduct your own inspection and due diligence before making any purchasing or selling decision.
WatchMerit Score and investment ratings
The WatchMerit Score and any Buy/Hold/Sell rating are proprietary, algorithmically generated indicators based on historical pricing, demand, rarity, liquidity and other data available to WatchMerit at the time of publication. They are opinions derived from a model, not predictions or guarantees. Past performance and historical pricing trends are not a reliable indicator of future value.
Price forecasts
Any 12-month price outlook or forecast is an estimate only, generated from historical data and modelling assumptions, and may prove inaccurate. Actual market prices may rise, fall, or remain flat by more than any stated range. WatchMerit gives no assurance as to the accuracy of any forecast and accepts no liability for decisions made in reliance on it.
Insurance replacement value estimates
Insurance replacement-value estimates are indicative only, generated from market data available to WatchMerit, and are not a formal valuation for insurance, probate, lending or legal purposes. Obtain a valuation from a qualified valuer or your insurer before relying on this figure for insurance or any other formal purpose.
Data accuracy
Listing, pricing and specification data is collected from publicly available third-party sources and may be incomplete, delayed, or superseded by the time you view it. WatchMerit updates data periodically but does not guarantee its accuracy or currency, and corrects errors on a best-endeavours basis once identified.
AI-generated and automated editorial content
Some commentary, market digests and editorial content on this platform is generated or drafted with the assistance of automated or AI-based tools, based on the data described above. It is provided for general informational purposes, may contain errors, and should be independently verified before being relied upon.
Authenticity and transactions
WatchMerit is not a dealer, broker, auctioneer, escrow agent or authenticator. Vendor "verified" status refers to business account verification only and is not an authentication of any watch. All negotiation, payment, delivery and dispute resolution occurs directly between buyer and vendor. Always inspect a watch and verify authenticity independently before paying.
