Sell your watch to us

At Veritas Vintage Watches, we are always on the lookout to buy watches, from a variety of luxury brands. If you have a watch you would like to sell, you are on the right page. We are dedicated to providing you with the best value for your timepiece, ensuring a transparent and hassle-free experience.

We mainly buy watches from big brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Lange & Sohne, etc. However, this list is not exhaustive and we are always interested in offering novelties to our clientele. Whether you have a vintage or a contemporary piece, our team is ready to evaluate your watch and offer you a competitive price. Our transparent process ensures you understand every step, from the initial appraisal to the final payment, and we are committed to providing a service that is fair and efficient.

How does it work?

Initial evaluation

Start by clicking the contact button that fits you best, either email or WhatsApp, and providing us with all the details you know about your watch, including the brand, model, age, and condition, along with some pictures. We will review the information and provide you with a preliminary offer. If you prefer, visit us in Lausanne for a comprehensive on-the-spot evaluation to get an immediate offer.

01

Appraisal and offer

For the valuation of your watch, the following factors are considered: brand, model, condition, initial date of sale, papers, box, accessories and current market trends. We will then conduct a thorough inspection of your timepiece, and after having reviewed all these information, we provide a final accurate offer.

02

Payment

Once we agree on a price and have the watch in our possession, we will do a thorough check to confirm that the watch is as described. When we can confirm everything is in order, we issue a buying invoice to conclude the transaction. You will receive your payment quickly and securely via bank transfer.

Consign your watch

When you sell your watch directly to us, we offer a price that takes into account the current market trends, along with our processing and marketing costs, as well as the holding period, which is the estimated time we will have to hold the watch in our inventory. However, by choosing to sell your watch via consignment, we can eliminate some of these expenses and offer a better price. The difference with a direct sale is that you only get the agreed-upon money once the watch is sold.
