What is 0% finance?

Purchasing an item on finance is a great way to spread the cost of a watch or an item of jewellery. You'll pay no interest when choosing this option and you can choose to spread your payments over 6, 12, 18, 24 or 36 months. You will choose your final terms after placing your order at the checkout, but you can use the calculator on product pages to decide on a suitable option before committing.

What other finance options do you offer?

Those looking to finance for longer can use 48 months Classic Credit finance available on most products. With an APR of 15.9% you can spread the cost over 4 years. Discounted/sale items on our website can be purchased on either IFC for up to 12 months or 15.9% APR finance over 24, 36, and 48 months. To be eligible for Classic Credit, your loan amount after a deposit has been paid needs to be £250 or more. You will choose your final terms after placing your order at the checkout, but you can use the calculator on product pages to decide on a suitable option before committing.

Do I need to pay a deposit?

The minimum deposit amount is just 10%. If you would like to pay a higher deposit to reduce your repayments then you may pay up to 50% upfront.

How does finance work?

Using finance allows you to spread the cost of a purchase over a set period of time. In general terms, you will be borrowing the purchase amount and paying the lender back on a monthly basis, in this case V12. A credit check is required to complete your application so please ensure all information entered is true and correct. A decision is usually instant and most applications do not require any further checks, however if your application is referred you may be asked to contact V12 to further confirm some personal details.

Larger payments can be made at anytime during your agreement to pay off a chunk of the loan. Your monthly repayments thereafter will adjust to the new remaining amount. You can also finish your finance agreement early at anytime with a bulk payment of the remaining loan. In both instances please contact V12 direct with your application number and they will be able to assist further.
