If your kids aren't interested in your watches and you're worried that they'll be parted out after being auctioned off somewhere, then consign them here with us. We take the photos, write up the listing, screen potential buyers and ship when you say so.
The concept is simple - we're providing a safe forum for collectors to sell or trade with other collectors, away from the parasites who melt down and part out antique timepieces, and the auction houses that will knowingly sell your watches to them. We are simply acting as the middleman, connecting both seller and buyer, and are unaware of any service histories and assume no responsibility in any transaction.

Just send a note through the Contact page and let us know which watch you're interested in. We'll pass your email on to the owner and let the two of you work out the price and talk it over, so anticipate haggling and questions. We'll ship it to you via the US Postal Service with tracking after the owner lets us know that an agreement has been reached and payment has been received.
Write us with photos of your watch, which should be original, exceptional or rare because this page is to prevent special watches from being parted out, and uncommon pieces will naturally generate more interest. After we agree to accept your watch, you ship it here, where we take the listing photos, write the description, and add the listing to the website. We forward any inquiries to you and let you take it from there.
