Appraisals

Have your watch appraised by an expert

There are many variants of American pocket watches that are worth thousands of dollars, and if the serial number is low enough they can be worth tens of thousands of dollars. 


To have yours appraised for value, condition and rarity you must send adequate photographs of the dial, case and movement to us and pay a fee for each watch. After you've sent us your photos and paid the fee, we can either talk on the phone or the appraisal can be written up in an email.

Appraisal Fee

$28.00
Pay with PayPal or a debit/credit card

The appraisal is based solely on your photos, so the better your photos are, the more issues we can see. Remember that appraisals are opinions and are not guarantees of asking sale prices or gaveled auction results.


We never advocate selling irreplaceable family heirlooms to make a quick buck, and this service is only to give you an idea of its value.
