This Sunday sees the availability of the Precista Military PRS-10, one of our most popular watches since it's launch in 2008.

Based on the original Precista G10 from the 1980s the PRS-10 features several improvements including Swiss Ronda Movement with 10 Year Battery Life, Sapphire crystal and SuperLuminova C1-X3.  The store is currently open and we are trialling extended hours with the store being available every day from 7am - 11pm [UK].

 Hopefully we can maintain this moving forward though hours may be subject to change including after the launch of certain watch ranges.  Watches currently available include: PRS-46 Precista Italian 20th Anniversary Edition, Smiths's Air Ministry, Smiths Traveller, Trans-global Aventurine, Smiths Navigator (White Dial Only, Black Dial now sold out), Smiths Caribbean (Black, Blue & Yellow with Blue Bezel), Richmond Spencer, Precista PRS-82 Royal Navy Diver, Dreadnought Voyager, Smiths Black Shadow & Seafire plus the Baby & Speedbird Range.

All Everest variants are currently sold out with expected availability from October 2025.

All watches are guaranteed against defective workmanship for 24 months from date of purchase and the guarantee for the first 12 months applies to the original purchaser only.

 Message for USA Customers: 

PLEASE BE AWARE OF TARIFF CHARGES BEFORE ORDERING.

The U.S. administration has announced the tariff charges placed on items originating from Hong Kong (same rate as China) have now been lowered to 30% (from 145%) for a trial period of 90 days.

The De Minimis exemption for items under $800 HAS NOT been reintroduced however so tariff charges will apply to all of our watches and straps where the country of origin is partly Hong Kong.

PLEASE BE AWARE OF TARIFF CHARGES BEFORE ORDERING.

Even though we have been providing information on tariffs and charges for many weeks including emails, social media posts and details on individual watch pages customers who ordered after the tariffs were implemented are still getting in touch with complaints regarding the charges. We are unable to provide accurate information on how much will be charged as this varies between products.

Customers are personally liable for these charges once items have entered the USA. They are payable by the customers, non refundable and outside of Time Factors and UPS control.

Many of our Watches, Bracelets & Straps are part-made in Hong Kong (with movements being Swiss or Japanese) so they are liable for the same 30% tariff placed on China. Details of a watches Country of Origin are at the bottom of each items page on our website.

Tariffs and charges are collected by UPS prior to delivery so please make sure your contact details are correct.
