How to Buy Watches at Auction

Why Buy Watches at Auction Price: Prices for watches at auction may often be less than current market prices for similar models Unique materials: Many vintage watches use materials that are no longer used today, even by the company that first introduced the watch Specialized help: Auction specialists are extremely knowledgeable about all kinds and brands of watches and are happy to answer any questions you might have about a watch.

Auctions have proven particularly popular for watch buyers in recent years, in large part because the selection of vintage watches available cannot usually be found in stores "We know there are plenty of people out there who, given the chance, would like to buy these watches outright," Lopez notes, "But an auction is designed to give as many people as possible a chance to look at these watches, talk to me if they need to and then decide what's the right watch for them." "We constantly hunt for the best watches in the field," says co-founder Max Abbott, "And we purposely curated this auction so there would be something for everyone, which is why there are over 230 men's and ladies' timepieces in all price points and styles." Adds Lopez: "This auction also provides amazing opportunities for people who love some of the current watches on the market that are on multi-year back order And often, if you're willing to buy a vintage model, you can essentially get the same watch for half the price".
