The collection
Pieces worth a conversation.
A few of the watches currently in hand. Every listing shows its price, its condition, and its story.
How buying works
No cart. No checkout. A conversation.
Watches at this level deserve more than a buy button. Here is the whole process.
Inquire
WhatsApp, a call, or the form. Tell me the piece you have in mind.
See the real watch
Live photos, honest condition notes, timing numbers — the actual example, not a stock image.
Wire on invoice
When it is right, you receive a simple invoice. Payment is by wire.
Insured delivery
Fully insured overnight shipping, signature required. On your wrist the next morning.
The dealer
Every watch here has been in my hands first.
I buy and sell pre-owned luxury watches, and nothing gets listed until it has been on the timing machine, under the loupe, and photographed honestly with the flaws included. If I wouldn't buy a watch myself, I won't sell it to you.
Tell me the piece you've had in mind and I'll get you that piece — the year, the dial, the condition you actually want.
