The brand is the beginning. Condition determines the rest.
Antique and vintage watches are valued by brand, model, calibre, condition, and completeness. An Omega Seamaster from the 1960s in original condition tells a different story than a restored example.
AntiqBot analyses your watch based on photos: dial, case, back, and any engravings. The system identifies the brand, estimated period, and provides an indicative market value.
With watches, everything counts: original dial, correct hands, matching bracelet. Every detail affects value.
Appraising a watch in three steps.
Questions about watch appraisal.
Can AntiqBot assess the movement?
AntiqBot can identify the movement if you photograph the back or open movement. For technical assessment, a watchmaker is needed.
Does it work for pocket watches?
Yes. AntiqBot recognises both pocket watches and wristwatches from all periods.
How does condition affect value?
Condition is crucial. Original components, unpolished case, and original dial significantly increase value.
