Illustrative direct-purchase ranges reviewed July 2026. These are not appraisals, guaranteed offers, or completed transactions. Exact value depends on authenticity, condition, originality, completeness, service needs and current market demand.

The process

A clear private sale, in three steps.

Send the details today and you will have a considered range back before this time tomorrow.

Submit your watch.

Share the reference, condition, box and papers, and clear photographs.

Receive a range.

We review current demand and respond in under 24 hours, with no obligation.

Choose how to close.

A private buyer comes to you in Orange County, or you ship it to us fully insured. Both routes

Online amounts are preliminary. The final purchase amount is confirmed only after physical inspection, authentication and verification that the watch matches the submission.

Finishing the sale

Two ways to close, whichever suits you.

Once the preliminary range works for you, you choose how the watch is authenticated and paid for. Both routes end the same way: you see the final amount before anything is final, and you can still walk away.

01

We send a private buyer to you.

The simplest route inside Orange County. Your watch never leaves your hands until you have agreed the number.

  1. We schedule a private appointment at a time and place that suits you — home, office or a bank.
  2. Our buyer authenticates the watch in front of you: reference, movement, bracelet, papers and serial.
  3. If the final amount matches the range, you accept and are paid on the spot by cash or wire.
  4. If anything is not as expected, we say so on the spot and you keep the watch. No fee either way.

02

Or ship it to us, fully insured.

For sellers outside Orange County, or anyone who would rather not host an appointment. Shipping and insurance are on us.

  1. Once the range works for you, we email a prepaid USPS or UPS label, insured for the agreed amount, with signature required and packing guidance.
  2. Your watch is opened and filmed on arrival, then authenticated by our watchmaker — movement, case, dial and bracelet.
  3. We confirm the final amount against the authentication. You approve it before any payment is released.
  4. Payment is sent by wire the same business day you approve. Decline, and it ships back insured at our cost.

Insured for the agreed amount · signature required · filmed on arrival · return shipping paid if you decline

Either route, the amount quoted online is preliminary until the watch has been physically inspected, authenticated and confirmed to match the submission. Ownership and identification are verified before any payment is made.
