Trust us to provide a thorough and reliable authentication service that safeguards your investment.
Identification and Verification
We meticulously verify if the watch is genuine or counterfeit, examining all aspects, including brand, model, serial number, and more. Our experts scrutinise every detail to ensure no aspect is overlooked. This thorough examination forms the foundation of our authentication process.
Detailed Description
The report provides a comprehensive description, including the brand, model, serial number, calibre reference number, dial description, metal colour and identification, dimensions of the case, and details of any aftermarket modifications or customizations. This detailed documentation helps in identifying the watch accurately. It also serves as a valuable reference for future maintenance and valuation.
Condition Report
An assessment of the watch's condition, highlighting any wear and tear, and providing an overall rating. This report helps you understand the current state of your watch. It is crucial for determining the watch's value and any potential restoration needs.
Pressure Test
We conduct a pressure test to check the watch's water resistance, ensuring it meets the manufacturer’s specifications. This test verifies that your watch is properly sealed against water damage. It is an essential part of maintaining the watch's durability and longevity.
Database Check
The watch is checked against the 'Art Loss Register,' the largest database of stolen watches, to ensure it is not listed as stolen. This step adds an extra layer of security to your authentication process. Knowing your watch is not reported stolen gives you peace of mind.
Photographic Documentation
We provide photographs of the watch, including detailed images of the movement and external condition. These photographs are part of the comprehensive report and serve as a visual record of the watch's state. They can be useful for insurance purposes and future reference.
Central e-Register Database
Registration of the watch's details in a secure central e-register database for future reference and validation. This step ensures that your watch's authentication record is easily accessible. It provides ongoing validation of the watch's authenticity.
