Ratio Watches Worldwide Warranty Policy
We build our watches and straps to be worn in real conditions, and we stand behind them. This policy explains what we cover, for how long, and how to reach us if something is wrong.
Warranty Coverage
- Ratio Freediver X Watches: 5-Year International Warranty
- All Other Ratio Watches: 2-Year International Warranty

Coverage runs from the date of delivery and applies worldwide.
60-Day Free Return & Replacement Guarantee
If a problem appears within the first 60 days of delivery, we will replace the product free of charge once the faulty item is returned to us. Contact us and we will guide you through it.
After the first 60 days, we will handle your case under the terms set out below.
Watches
What is Covered
Defects in materials or workmanship affecting the internal mechanisms of the watch.
Included in the Warranty:
- Movement or internal component malfunctions
What is Not Covered
We take care to build watches that last, but some things sit outside the scope of this warranty. We do not cover external damage or issues caused by improper use, including:
- Water or moisture damage
- Physical damage to the case, crystal, or glass
- Missing stones or gems
- Damage to the bracelet, strap, or band
- Damage to the crown, stem, or finishes
- Broken or damaged clasps and buckles
- Normal wear and tear from everyday use
- Issues with the battery
- Damage resulting from servicing by an unauthorised third party
Note on third-party servicing: Servicing by an unauthorised third party voids this warranty. Our service team can identify these cases, and any resulting repairs will be charged accordingly.
Straps
Ratio straps purchased as separate products carry a 1-Year International Warranty against manufacturing defects.
What is Covered
- Stitch failure or unravelling
- Delamination, peeling, or separation of layers
- Cracking or splitting of the material
- Faults in the buckle, keepers, or spring bars
What is Not Covered
Straps are worn items, and the way they age is part of how they are made. The following fall outside the warranty:
- Normal wear and ageing, including patina and colour change on leather, flattening or shine on microfibre, and surface abrasion
- Damage from misuse, accident, or modification
- Deterioration from prolonged exposure to water, perspiration, sunlight, or chemicals
- Straps fitted to a watch at the time of purchase, which fall under the watch warranty exclusions above
Approved strap claims are resolved by replacement rather than repair.
