GENERAL INFO

At Aega, we prioritize customer satisfaction. Sometimes our products might not be what you expected, or you receive a faulty item. If that happens, don't worry

— we're here to help with returns, refunds, or swaps.

ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS

Everything we sell at Aega is built with high-quality materials and absolute durability. We use some of the best materials in the industry to make our watches as indestructible as feasibly possible — but we don't recommend holding them over a blowtorch.

Important: Aega smartwatches are consumer wearable devices only. They are not medical devices and are not intended to diagnose, treat, monitor, cure, or prevent any medical condition or disease. Health-related features such as heart rate, blood oxygen, and stress monitoring are designed for general wellness and fitness tracking purposes only. Do not rely on any Aega product for medical decisions — always consult a qualified healthcare professional.

CONDITIONS FOR RETURNS

  • Returns accepted within 7 days of delivery for defective items only
  • Items must be returned with all accessories in original packaging
  • Missing components will result in a R200–R600 deduction from the refund (e.g. screen protector, charging cable, strap)

GUARANTEE

Within 4 Months: If your smartwatch develops a fault due to a manufacturing issue, we'll inspect and offer a repair, replacement, or refund. This does not cover accidental damage, drops, misuse, third-party apps, or water damage caused by use beyond the watch's IP68 rating (deeper than 1.5 m or longer than 1 hour at a time).

After 4 Months: We'll assess your case and advise on what may need service or replacement. If repair is possible, we'll provide a quote up to the original purchase value.

Due to our quality assurance, Aega is not liable for mismanaged or damaged items after the 7-day grace period. If an item is not defective from the onset, there is no risk of fault unless mishandled, misused, or intentionally tested beyond its capabilities.

Guarantee Terms: We replace or refund products that fail due to manufacturing defects only. We are not liable for damage caused by the consumer.

For considerable issues, contact us at info@aega.co.za or WhatsApp 069 556 1223.

WATER RESISTANCE

Aega watches are IP68 water-resistant and can be submerged up to 1.5 metres for up to 1 hour at a time — so swimming, rain, washing and everyday wear are all fine. Hot showers and saunas are fine too; afterwards, rinse the watch with cool, room-temperature fresh water. After use in the sea or salt water, always rinse it in fresh water to prevent salt build-up, and dry it once it's been in water. Not covered: submersion beyond this rating (deeper than 1.5 metres or longer than 1 hour at a time), and high-pressure or steam cleaning.

SPECIFIC COVERAGE & NON-COVERAGE

INTENTIONAL DAMAGE & MISUSE — NOT COVERED:

The following void all warranty and return eligibility:

  • Striking the screen or watch body with any tool or object
  • Submersion beyond the watch's IP68 water-resistance rating — deeper than 1.5 metres or longer than 1 hour at a time — or high-pressure/steam cleaning
  • Exposure to open flames or extreme heat
  • Any damage that hinders the device's functionality, use, or enjoyment

PROPER USE: Our warranty covers manufacturing defects and normal use only. Damage from misuse, intentional testing beyond designed limits, or actions contradicting our care guidelines is not covered.

In rare cases of accidental damage from external factors, we may investigate and offer discretionary coverage — assessed case by case.
