The watch arrived in time for my Amtrac journey from western Colorado to South Bend, In. It was a surprise arrival as I did not think it would arrive prior to my departure. Gold star for the company.... See more

Scam company

Say they posted out watch with tracking number but not posted. They don't have any means of contact other than a support email, I have sent 18 separate emails over last 48 hours. No response at all. I guess they are a scam company. Please avoid

Awful customer service - no watch and no money

The ordered pocket watch hasn't been delivered to my address. I reported it to the customer service and they told me to chase it up with the courier myself and have ignored my past 3 emails I sent them (and Ive been patient- it's been over 2 weeks now). I requested a refund and they've ignored it.

Perfect product, perfect service

I have ordered the Onyx Black Double Hunter Mechanical Pocket Watch. The watch itself is absolutely beautiful and my son was so happy to receive it as a gift for his departure to a new job in Antarctica! The delivery from Brelsen was spotless, quick and safe, nicely and safely packed. I could not recommended it more enough- if you want to buy an elegant gift for someone you love.

Bought the watch and I was originally…

Bought the watch and I was originally impressed. It looked great. Within 2 weeks it stopped working. Tried to get a replacement or refund from the company. They told me to return it at my cost. Then I heard nothing from them. They didn't respond to my emails so it was pretty much a waste of money. Too bad because I liked the watch.

It's a pleasure to have this!

I ordered the double hunter, gold, mechanical, version of this watch. It arrived within a couple of weeks and has been working perfectly so far. It seems to gain about two minutes over a period of a week. I plan on leaving it as it is for another few weeks-think of it as 'running in.' Then I'll adjust it using the regulator. I remember having to adjust wristwatches and clocks on a daily basis when I was younger, so I don't see this as a failing, particularly for a watch that is relatively inexpensive. It looks great and is a pleasure to wear with a waistcoat.

disgruntled over waste of money

I ordered a silver pocket watch. Got one in black instead. Not what I ordered. Decided it was not worth the cost of returning it for replacement. Was advised that someone would follow up my complaint and get back to me. Which never happened.
Anyway I found that the watch I received didn't work anyway.
At the very low sales price of around $69 dollars I probably got what I paid for. I reckon it is not worth the cost of pursuing this matter for a replacement. So it will be a case of 'into the bin , Jim.' and chalking it up to a bad on line purchase experience.

The perfect gift

From prompt delivery to a high-quality product, Brelsen exceeded my expectations.
I bought the pocket watch as an 18th birthday gift for my nephew, and he was completely blown away. His dad wants one now!
It is beautifully made, and even the box added to the overall appearance of a luxury item.
Highly recommend.

Pocket watch

The order system was so easy, my watch came within the time stated and was exactly as described, I ordered it for my son on his wedding day, just know he will love it, so glad I went to this company for it, would definitely recommend them.
