Discreet Guidance for Collectors

From sourcing an elusive reference to representing an important watch, every engagement is personal, considered and confidential.

We work with a small number of collectors at any one time. That is a deliberate limit: it allows each watch, and each brief, to receive proper attention.

Process

How the Process Works

  1. 01

    Initial Conversation

    A private discussion of the watch, the objective and the timeframe.

  2. 02

    Research and Assessment

    Reference, condition and provenance reviewed carefully.

  3. 03

    Representation or Acquisition

    Discreet introduction, negotiation and completion.

Trust and Confidentiality

Names, holdings and transactions are never discussed outside the engagement. Photographs of your watch are used only with permission. Where a watch is represented publicly, the owner remains anonymous.

All enquiries are handled with complete discretion.

A Global Network

Relationships built across London, Monaco and further afield allow watches to move quietly between collectors who value them, rather than through open marketplaces.
