Really disappointed with experience
Really disappointed with the experience. Purchased a g-shock via the NZ “.co.nz.” Website, put in my address paid and that was fine. THEN a day later I’m told to pay extra for postage as they calculated my address wrong. Did that. THEN after the parcel shipped, 2 days later I got another email and had to pay MORE, as it turns out the watch came from Singapore so had to pay import tax!! Nowhere in the purchase process was I told this and it all presents as a local “.co.nz” site, so thought all costs would be sorted.
Felt like I got nickel ‘n’ dimmed, and I should have payed more but bought from a proper NZ shop in the mall.
Lesson learnt, CityWatches felt like a a low-key rip off and not a smooth process

Dear G A,
We sincerely apologize for the frustration and confusion caused by the additional charges you encountered. We completely understand how unexpected fees can affect your experience, and we appreciate you sharing your concerns.
We would like to clarify that while we are an NZ-based company, we operate multiple warehouses, and orders are dispatched based on stock availability. Occasionally, some zip codes fall within an extended area, and our courier partners request additional shipping charges for those locations.
Regarding customs or import charges, there should not be any unexpected fees, and we want to ensure this is resolved for you. We kindly request you to reach out to our customer support team at cs@citywatches.co.nz, and we will be happy to assist you promptly and clarify all charges.
We truly value your trust and are committed to making this right.
Regards,
Sally

City watches.co.nz is not a new Zealand company
After paying for the watch which was said to be in stock and have a 2-4 day arrival date, I then sent multiple emails regarding the watch not being sent.
The customer service replies were vague and patronising.
After a week the watch finally shipped and arrived at customs.
Customs then quired the address as City watches had changed my home address to match the delivery address.
Why they did this is not clear.
I then had to lodge a new customs declaration to confirm my home address.
The watch finally got delivered after 2 weeks form order date.
Please be aware they ship from Singapore even though the website will convince you that is a locally based business.

Dear Cam,
We sincerely apologize for the frustration caused by your experience, and we completely understand your concerns. We want to assure you that we are an NZ-based company; however, the model you requested was unfortunately not available in our NZ warehouse, which led to it being dispatched from our secondary warehouse.
Regarding the customs issues, we would like to clarify that customs procedures differ from country to country, and unfortunately, we do not have control over their policies. We understand this added to your frustration and we apologize for the inconvenience.
Once again, we truly regret the delays and the confusion caused throughout the process. Your feedback is very important to us, and we will be sure to review our processes to prevent similar situations in the future.
Once again, we deeply apologize for the frustration this situation has caused. If you need any further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer support team at cs@citywatches.co.nz. We're here to help.

It’s reassuring to know I can count on them for genuine products at good value. Based on my experiences so far, I’d definitely recommend City Watches to anyone looking to buy a quality timepiece online.

I am looking forward to wearing this watch for many years to come. I am probably not a regular customer, but more of a buy good once and hold for as long as possible. I like to buy quality products.

Some trouble with unseen fees and slow postage
I bought an expensive watch and it arrived and was authentic.
However the postage took a couple of weeks not 2-6 days as advertised. And I was charged $140 by DHL so not free postage as advertised.
Due to incorrectly filled out paperwork I was charged GST at the border and it took 2 months and many emails to get it back.
The whole process has been slow but they did always eventually reply to emails and refunded the GST.
In the end I still saved a couple of thousand dollars compared to getting the watch from the manufacturer.
Also it has a 10 year warranty which I registered for no problem, but may be difficult to find a shop to do the work or I may have to send it to Switzerland.
With a watch less than $1000 it is likely none of this would be a problem.

Not based in NZ
Not based in NZ. I think they are based in SE Asia. No phone number, no address. I bought a watch for my son. Running far too fast. Contacted via web form and email, no response. I'm sure they are OK if you buy something and it's not defective but if anything goes wrong support and service is non existent.you can't call them or walk in anywhere and only way to contact them is via email which they don't answer

Check if it is genuine before you buy
Thought I was buying a genuine Bulova Marine Star but ended up with a fake Chinese copy for the price of a genuine one. I complained and requested a refund. They sent me the return envelopes with a tracking number so all I had to do was take it to the post office. With overseas purchases there is a huge risk of not getting the refund after the item is returned. However, we kept up polite correspondence and the refund came back through Paypal without delay. I gave them three stars for turning things around with their refund service which I thought was commendable. I bought a genuine Bulova watch from Chrono 24 and it is perfect.

Citizen Eco-Drive Rubber Strap Turquoise Dial AW1760-14X 100M Men's Watch
Nice watch, received well wrapped and boxed for safe travels. I was kept up to date regarding the shipping updates. Item shipped in a timely manner from overseas and not New Zealand.
Special website prices are excluding taxes so you will need to add this to your special discount.
Example as below
Subtotal
NZ $249.85
Shipping NZ $0.00
Taxes NZ $37.48
Total $287.33 NZD
You saved NZ $13.15
Pros - Great selection of watches & free shipping, cheaper than most shops online.
Non-Pros - Discounts vary from 5% to 15% and they only really cover the cost of taxes.
