Ordering and delivery
When will my order be dispatched?
Order before 12pm on a working day and it's dispatched the same day, engraving included. Orders placed after 12pm, at weekends or on bank holidays go out the next working day.
How much is delivery?
UK delivery is free on all orders over £50. International delivery is calculated at checkout.
For US orders, all customs and import taxes are paid by us when your order ships, so there is nothing to pay on arrival. We also prepay duties on EU orders wherever Royal Mail allows it.
How do I track my order?
As soon as your order ships you'll get an email with a tracking link. You can also check your order status any time in your account.
Is it suitable as a gift?
Yes. Every order ships gift-ready in discreet outer packaging, so nothing on the outside gives away what's inside. Perfect if it's being delivered to the person it's for.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Get in touch as soon as possible at Support@LuxWatchBox.co.uk. Because orders are engraved and dispatched quickly, changes can only be made before your order is processed.
Personalised engraving
Is engraving really free?
Yes. Every personalised case comes with a hand-engraved plaque at no extra cost. Shop personalised cases
How do I add my engraving?
Type your text into the engraving box on the product page before adding to basket. Names, initials, dates and short messages all work well.
Please double check spelling, capitals and dates. We engrave exactly what's entered.
Can I return a personalised item?
Because it's made just for you, a personalised item can't be returned unless it arrives faulty or damaged. If anything isn't right, contact us and we'll put it right.
Caring for your box
A little care keeps your box looking as good as the day it arrived.
Wood and lacquer finishes
- Dust with a soft, dry microfibre cloth.
- For marks, use a cloth very lightly dampened with water, then dry straight away.
- Avoid furniture polish, silicone sprays and household cleaners. They can cloud or strip the finish.
Where should I keep it?
Somewhere stable indoors, ideally 15 to 22°C with 45 to 60% humidity. Keep it away from radiators, air-con vents and sunny windowsills. Direct sunlight can fade wood and interiors, and sudden temperature changes can affect how the lid sits.
Suede and velvet interiors
- Lift dust with a lint roller or a soft clothes brush.
- Never use water or cleaning products on the lining.
- Wipe watches before storing them so skin oils and moisture don't transfer to the interior.
Glass display lids
Spray a little glass cleaner onto a microfibre cloth, never directly onto the box, then wipe. This keeps liquid away from the wood and the seal.
Watch pillows
- Fasten the strap or bracelet around the pillow and squeeze the pillow gently to slide it into its slot.
- Larger bracelets can be left open and laid around the pillow to avoid stretching.
- Avoid forcing a pillow in too tightly, as it can mark the lining over time.
Leather cases and watch rolls
- Wipe with a soft, dry cloth. A small amount of leather conditioner every few months keeps it supple.
- If it gets wet, let it dry naturally away from heat.
- Store away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
