Buying Advice
What to look for in a luxury watch
What should I look for when buying a pre-owned luxury watch?
Focus on three things: condition, authenticity and long-term value. We explain all three for every watch we sell, so you know exactly what you are getting.
How do I judge a watch’s condition?
Look closely at the case, crystal, dial, hands and bracelet or strap for scratches, wear and replaced parts, and ask how the movement keeps time. We will point out anything worth knowing on a piece you are considering.
How can I tell if a watch is authentic?
Authenticity comes down to details like the dial printing, serial and reference numbers, the movement and the quality of finishing. Because every watch we sell is authenticated by experts, you do not have to figure this out on your own.
Will my watch hold its value?
Some brands and models hold their value better than others, especially well-known references in good original condition. We are happy to talk through long-term value with you before you buy.
I am a first-time buyer. Can you help me choose?
Absolutely. We love helping first-time luxury watch buyers. Tell us your style, budget and how you plan to wear it, and we will help you find the right fit.
