The following General Terms and Conditions of Supply (“GTC”) for online orders in Hong Kong apply between the customer (“you”) and the supplier, Victorinox Hong Kong Limited, Hong Kong, (“we” or “us”) in the current version at the time each order is placed.
Please read the GTC carefully before you submit your order to us. The GTC tell you who we are, how we will provide products to you, how you and we may charge or end the contract, what to do if there is a problem and other important information.
Victorinox Hong Kong Limited, the operator of this website, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Victorinox AG and Victorinox AG is the owner of this website.
Deviating, additional or conflicting customer terms and conditions will not be recognised unless we have expressly agreed in writing to their validity.
Registration: Proper registration is required for the use of offers in our online shop. As a result, you are responsible for providing truthful and complete information as a customer. We are not obligated to accept the registration or orders of a registered customer. Likewise, we are not obligated to make our services permanently available. Orders that have already been confirmed remain unaffected by this.
Faulty information: If incomplete or inaccurate information is provided upon registration, or you neglect to inform us of changes, then we are entitled to immediately exclude you from using the online shop.
Login information: You are obligated to treat your personal login information as confidential and to prevent access by unauthorised third parties.
Placing an order: Begin your order by logging in to your account and adding the selected product(s) to the shopping cart. By pressing the “BUY NOW” button (or similar button indicating order completion), you are confirming a binding order of the product(s) that are in the shopping cart. An automated email letting you know that we have received your order is generated immediately after the order is sent. However, this automated email does not constitute our acceptance of the order. If you have opened a customer account, then you can see your orders at any time under “My Orders”.
Formation of contract: Your order is only accepted when we send you a separate order confirmation via e-mail within five (5) working days after your order was placed. A contract for the purchase and supply of product(s) will be concluded at this point. There is no contract concluded for ordered products that are not listed in the order confirmation.
Unable to accept order: If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this in writing and reimburse you for any payments already made. This might be because the product is out of stock, because the order does not comply with the GTC or because of unexpected limits on our resources.
Product temporarily unavailable: If the product indicated in your order is temporarily unavailable, we will inform you of this in writing and provide you with an estimate date on which the product will become available. You will then have the choice to cancel the order (in which case we will reimburse you for any payments already made) or wait until the product becomes available. Failure for the product to become available within the estimated timeframe will have the same consequences as clause 6 ‘Late delivery’.
Purchaser requirements: Products displayed on the website may only be purchased for personal use and by consumers who are at least 18 years of age, legally competent and who have their regular residence as well as a delivery and billing address within the permitted delivery location (see clause 6).
Personalisation of products: We offer personalisation services for certain products (e.g. engraving). The customer is fully responsible for the correct provision of personalisation orders (e.g. selection of scale colour, font colour and size, text to be engraved). Submitted personalisation orders will not be corrected on our side, e.g. neither typos nor selection of font colours will be corrected or optimised. It is strictly forbidden to use coarse language as well as discriminating, racist, sexist or violence-glorifying wordings. We reserve the right to cancel orders that contain wordings which are not in line with the provisions mentioned above or may bring into disrepute Victorinox’s brand, products or reputation. You are responsible and liable yourself that your personalisation does not infringe any third party rights.
Products: The subject matter of the contract is the products specified in your order and listed in the order confirmation email at the retail prices listed in the online shop.
Characteristic variations: The characteristics of the ordered products are based on the product descriptions in the online shop. Although we have made every effort to display the colours of products accurately in the online shop, we cannot guarantee that a computer’s display of the colours will accurately reflect the actual colour of the product. Your product may vary slightly from those images. For this reason, the images of the products in the online shop are for illustrative purposes only. Technical data, weight, dimensions and performance specifications are specified as precisely as possible, although they may have the usual variations.
Packaging variations: The product packaging of the product may vary from that shown on images on our website.
Price: The prices quoted at the time of the order shall apply to orders in our online shop. The prices quoted are retail prices in Hong Kong dollar (HKD).
Incorrect pricing: We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However, it is always possible that some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. Where the product’s correct price at your order date is less than the price stated in our online shop at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated in our online shop at the order date, we will contact you for instructions before we accept your order.
Payment method: Payment for the items is implemented via the methods of payment selected by you during the order process and under the conditions specified there. You must pay for the products before we dispatch them. Installment payments are not possible.
Delivery from/to location: Unless otherwise agreed, delivery is made from our distribution centre in Hong Kong to the delivery address provided by the customer during the order process. Deliveries are only made within the Hong Kong Territories (Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, New Territories, Ma Wan, Discovery Bay, Tung Chung). Deliveries to the outlying Islands are not possible.
Timing and cost of delivery: During the order process, we will let you know the approximate timeframe and cost for delivery. Please note that personalised products might take 1 or 2 business days longer to ship. Victorinox will do its best to meet the published delivery times, however, is not liable for any changes. Delivery time may change without prior notice. Please note that Victorinox cannot offer an express delivery service for personalised products.
Excusable delays: Disruptions that are not caused by us or any of the companies that we have contracted (such as logistics companies for performance of the contract) as well as any event outside our control may further delay the delivery. We will inform you of these types of delivery disruptions as soon as we become aware of them. Provided we do this, we will not be responsible for delays caused by such events.
You are not home when the product is delivered: If we are unable to make the delivery because there is nobody home, we will leave a card confirming that we have attempted delivery. It will then be your responsibility to arrange a new delivery date. If you do not arrange a new delivery date or collect the product from a delivery depot within a reasonable time (as applicable), we may cancel the order and refund any money you have paid in advance for the product, less any reasonable costs we incurred as a result of your failure to receive the delivery (such as storage and further delivery costs) if applicable.
Late delivery: You may cancel your order if we have not delivered the product to you within the above delivery deadline and: (a) we have refused to deliver the products; (b) delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (in the circumstances); or (c) you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.
If you choose to cancel your order, please contact our Customer Service team at +852 31012933 or via e-mail (service.online.hk@victorinox.com) in business hours. We will then refund any sums that you have paid to us for the cancelled products and their delivery. If the products are later delivered to you, you must arrange for them to be posted back to us.
Alternatively, if you do not wish to cancel your order or you do not have the right to do so (because the circumstances in (a) – (c) above do not apply, you can give us a new (reasonable) deadline for delivery. If we do not meet this new deadline, you may cancel your order, in which case the above process and right to a refund would apply.
When you become responsible for the product: The product remains the responsibility of Victorinox Hong Kong Limited until the date we deliver the product to the address you gave us.
When you own the product: You will own a product once we have received payment in full for it.
Validity: The conditions for validity of a coupon, including the period of validity and redeemable products, will be stated on the coupon or in documents accompanying the coupon. Coupons can only be redeemed once and not after an order has been placed. Coupons may not be used in conjunction with other promotional offers and are not transferable or redeemable for cash.
Purchase value: If the value of the promotional coupon is insufficient for the order, then the difference can be paid using the payment methods we offer. The required minimum value of an order is always mentioned in connection with the coupon.
Return of product purchased with a coupon: If you exercise your right of return on a product purchased with a coupon, the coupon will become void and the actual product price less the value of the coupon will be refunded. Similarly, if the minimum order value is no longer met because you return an items(s) purchased as part of the original order, then we will minus the coupon value from the actual product price being refunded.
Right to cancel: If you change your mind and no longer want a product, you may cancel your order (except personalised product)and receive a refund within 14 days, beginning on the day after you receive the product.

Cancellation, Withdrawal, Exchange and Return of personalised products: Please note that individualised orders may not be cancelled. As soon as you place your order, Victorinox starts the production and therefore cannot accept any changes or cancellation. The right of withdrawal does not apply to the delivery of goods that are made according to the customer specifications or are clearly tailored to the personal needs of the customer. In addition, the right of return does not apply to configurated and personalised items except for manufacturing defects, deficiencies, damage from transport or any other error caused by Victorinox. In such cases, we will happily send you a correct product free of charge.
Care of product: If you are in possession of the product you wish to return, you are responsible to retain and take reasonable care of the products until the time of the physical return.

Transit Damage: If a product is delivered with obvious damage from transport, then we ask you to immediately file a complaint with the delivery agent and to contact us as soon as possible. Failure to file a complaint or to contact us has no consequences for your legal warranty rights, but it helps us to be able to file our own claims against the freight carrier or the transport insurance company.
Additional guarantee: A guarantee only exists for delivered goods if this has been explicitly stated in the respective product’s order confirmation. A guarantee is in addition to, and does not affect, your legal rights in relation to products that are faulty or not as described.

Liability for foreseeable loss and damage: If we fail to comply with the GTC, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable.
