Sell a Pre-Owned
Patek Philippe
Selling a Patek Philippe requires a deep understanding of provenance, production rarity, and the specific nuances of the secondary market. We recognize that these watches are often significant family heirlooms or major financial investments, and we treat every transaction with the level of detail it deserves.
Our team monitors global auction results and private luxury watch sales daily so that the offer we provide for your Nautilus, Aquanaut, or Calatrava accurately reflects its current market standing.

professional Consignment
If you own a rare grand complication or a discontinued reference and are looking to maximize your net return, our consignment program is an excellent alternative.

Get The Best of Patek Philippe Market Value
- Certificate of Origin: Having the original Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin is the single most important factor in maximizing the value.
- Case and Dial Integrity: We look for signs of original factory finishing on the case edges and check the dial for any oxidation or unauthorized restoration.
- Mechanical Provenance: A documented service history from Patek Philippe in Geneva or New York confirms the watch has been maintained to the manufacturer's strict standards.
- Extract from the Archives: For vintage models, an official Extract from the Archives provides essential verification of the production date and original sale configuration.
