Beautiful unique watch, took a hot minute to use the chronograph function and zero the chronograph hands, quite easy when you understand

Watch was defective.
The watch I received was defective out of the box. Xeric was good about understanding the situation and has offered to replace the watch. It was unfortunate, but that happens. I have sent the watch back and am awaiting the replacement. I do appreciate the support of Xeric about this. It was hassle free.

I am so glad our team was able to help you, Bob!

Amazing Watch, Easy buying
The purchase process for the watch was really smooth and the communication on it was excellent. The quality of the watch is fantastic and I do plan on buying another watch from Xeric in the future.

I purchased 2 watches from Xeric…
I purchased 2 watches from Xeric through Watches.com. The Vendetta X was weird but kind of a cool watch so I got it at a discount. The case got scratched on the unit and they told me to contact the repair place they work with. After a month of "lost" emails and no responses I called them today to find out that they do not have these cases in stock and probably won't ever get them in stock. So along with that the other parts are also not available so the watch is basically unable to be repaired. What was a cool watch I was happy to own is now damaged and I cannot get parts for it after about 2 months. Very disappointed in this and I don't think I would buy another watch from Xeric knowing this now. Its too bad because there was the Inverter 2 that I was going to purchase but for now I think I will have to pass.

Hey Jonathan-We are sorry to hear about the issue with the repair shop. I am happy to reach out to their owner and let them know about this issue as well.

Classic cool.
Over the years, long ago when they went under the moniker of Watchismo,I've purchased probably a dozen or so watches from these guys, and have had nothing but a helpful experience each time. Suffice to say, recommending them is a no-brainer, buy with confidence. As someone with around 300 watches in my collection, thus latest purchase is an immediate favorite. I couldn't wait to watch the minute hand jump back to the beginning. So, so cool. Side note: I recently bought a book on cool watches, and it was from these guys, I didn't even know. The book is great, also, if you have a watch lover on your xmas list. Love this latest timepiece, gonna garner compliments for sure!

Terrible experience, not buying again!
Bought Retrodrade watch. Wait time was 6 months and I was supposed to receive the watch in August but after numerous follow ups I eventually received it in October. But that's not it. The watch was defective and had to return it at my expense (they would only offer $60 credit for their own website only). Then I was told that they don't have any of those watches so will have to again wait for weeks for new stock. All in all terrible experience and poor and arrogant customer service. Beware and avoid!
Response from XERIC WATCHESNov 12, 2025
Hello Mansoor! It looks like you pre-ordered an item through the Kickstarter platform, not xeric.com. The price is much lower on this platform, but the wait is definitely longer. They are very up front on the campaign about this, but you are welcome to always purchase later on the website without the pre-order wait and price. Part of the draw to the campaign is that you are guaranteed the product at the lowest possible price ever offered.
Please note that if our team is assisting you with a replacement, we will have additional stock in the next two weeks. We are currently sold out of the model you have, but I see that our team has promised to replace the shipment as soon as possible.
As we are a US based business, that is correct that we cannot offer shipping labels for other countries, only US postal service. We do try to offer store credit for any inconvenience of having to ship an item back, and so that our customers are not at a loss. For more information, we do include this in our terms, and you can always email our team at [email protected]. They are happy to help anytime! Once your replacement has shipped, they will let you know!

Unique and Eye-catching
This is a fantastic looking unique watch for those that have a racing sprit, or for those that just like a unique experience aside from the standard timepiece.

Met these guys at Windup Watch Fair in NYC and they were lovely. Super fun and helpful and proud of their product. I ordered the NASA Apollo 15 American Automatic Quasar on the spot and have loved every second of it on my wrist. Awesome company, great people, super unique and fun watch. Keep it up!

Thanks, Jesse! I hope you will come see us at Windup again this year!
