The process

“Is it real?” We answer it definitively.

01
In hand, never from photos

We take physical possession of the watch. Movement, case, dial, and any papers are examined together, with condition and originality noted.

02
Certified by specialists

Our specialists have authenticated and sold some of the rarest vintage watches in the world. That expertise is available to every collector, regardless of the piece.

03
A printed certificate

You receive a signed authentication document on completion — one document that settles the question for buyer and seller alike.
