Our Options
Consignment
A better return for you
Since we're not buying the watch outright, we work on a smaller margin — meaning you keep more from the sale. We only consign pieces that fit our curated collection.
- Higher net return
- Professional photography & listing
- Exposure to our global buyer network
- Securely stored in our vault
Sell Directly
Fast and hassle-free
Your return will be lower than with consignment, as we're investing our own capital. That said, we can't buy every watch offered — it depends on our available capital and current inventory needs.
- Immediate payment
- No waiting period
- Simple, quick process
- Confidential transaction
Frequently Asked Questions
If your watch fits our collection, we'll propose a market price and outline your expected return. Once we agree, we photograph, list, and actively promote it for 12 weeks. You'll hear about any offers right away. After a sale closes, you're paid within 14 days of the buyer receiving the watch.
If your watch suits our inventory and we have the capital, we'll make you an offer with a clear breakdown. Once agreed, we arrange secure shipping or meet in person. Payment goes out as soon as we verify the watch.
This is what we do all day, every day. Between our market activity, past sales, and current trends, we know what each piece is worth — and we price it fairly.
For consignment, it needs to run well since we stand behind every sale with a warranty. If it needs service, we'll talk through the options. For direct purchases, we factor condition into our offer and handle any servicing ourselves.
Mainly top-tier Swiss — Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, and the like. We love pieces that are hard to find elsewhere. Neo-vintage and current references from the major houses are always on our radar.
Comes down to what matters more to you. Want the best return and can wait a bit? Consignment. Need cash now and prefer simplicity? Sell direct. Either way, we're happy to walk you through it.
