Terms of Use

Short version: this is an independent publication of analysis and opinion about the watch industry. Read it accordingly.

What this site is

DEAD BEAT publishes journalism, analysis and opinion. We hold ourselves to a sourcing standard — factual claims link to checkable sources, and errors are corrected in place with a dated note — but content is provided as-is, without warranty of completeness or fitness for any purpose.

Not advice

Nothing here is financial, investment, purchasing or authentication advice. Watch markets involve real money and real risk; secondary-market figures cited in our coverage are historical observations, not predictions. Decisions you make about buying, selling or authenticating watches are yours.

Independence

We accept no advertising, sponsorship, affiliate fees or paid placement from watch brands or retailers. If that ever changes for any category of partner, it will be disclosed prominently — on this page and in the affected content.

Intellectual property

Content is © Dead Beat. Link freely, quote briefly with attribution; do not republish articles in full without written permission from editor@deadbeat.watch.

External links

Links to external sites are provided as sources and context, not endorsements. Their content and policies are their own.

Corrections

If we got something wrong, we want to know: editor@deadbeat.watch. Verified errors are corrected in the article with a dated note. That policy is load-bearing for this publication.
