What We Bring to Your Search

What We Bring to Your Search

Connections You Can't Buy: 8 years of buying and selling creates relationships that can't be replicated overnight. I know who has what, who's thinking about selling, and where to find pieces before they hit public listings. This isn't about luck—it's about access built over 300+ transactions.

Full Authentication Included Every sourced watch goes through the same inspection process as our inventory pieces. Movement accuracy, case integrity, bracelet function, dial authenticity. If it doesn't pass, you never see it. If there's anything notable, we disclose it.

Same Warranty, Same Standards Sourced pieces carry our full 1-year warranty on movement, case, and bracelet functionality. Same protection as buying from our existing inventory. Same commitment to making it right.

How It Works

Simple. Direct. Transparent.

How It Works

Step 1: Tell Us Exactly What You Want Be as specific as you need to be. Model, reference, year range, dial variant, condition requirements, box and papers preferences. The more detail, the more targeted the search. Not sure about some details? That's fine too—we can discuss what matters most for your specific hunt.

Step 2: I Work the Network Within 24 hours of receiving your request, I'm reaching out to my sources. Wholesale contacts, private collectors, fellow dealers, international connections. This isn't a passive search—it's active outreach to people who might have what you want or know who does.

Step 3: You See Every Option When I find potential matches, you get full details: photos, condition notes, what's included, pricing, and why this example is or isn't ideal. If it's not right, we keep looking. If multiple options exist, you choose.

Step 4: Authentication Before Commitment Before you commit to any sourced piece, it comes to Charlotte for full inspection. We verify authenticity, check functionality, document condition. You're not buying based on someone else's photos and promises.

Step 5: Delivery with Full Warranty Once authenticated and approved, your watch ships FedEx Overnight, fully insured. Same 1-year warranty as our inventory pieces. Same commitment to your satisfaction.

Why We Find What Others Can't

3 Continents. Thousands of Contacts. One Goal: Your Watch.

Our sourcing capability isn't built on technology—it's built on trust earned over 8 years and hundreds of transactions.

Wholesale Network: Direct relationships with wholesale sources who see inventory before it hits retail channels.

Private Collectors: Access to collectors who never list publicly but will consider selling to the right buyer through the right dealer.

Dealer Network: Fellow dealers who know to call me when specific pieces come through. Reciprocal relationships built over years.

International Reach: Sources in the US, Europe, and Asia. Different markets surface different pieces.

The pieces you're hunting exist. The challenge is knowing where to look and having the relationships to access them. That's what we bring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

  • There are no search fees, deposits, or retainers. You only pay when we successfully source your watch. The final price includes our full authentication process and 1-year warranty.

  • Most searches are completed within 2–4 weeks, longer for very specific or limited production pieces. Common references from major brands often turn up faster. Rare configurations, unusual dial variants, or specific vintage pieces may take longer. I'll keep you updated throughout the process and let you know if a search is proving particularly challenging.

  • It happens occasionally—some pieces are genuinely scarce. If we can't locate your watch within a reasonable timeframe, we'll discuss alternatives or keep the search open indefinitely at no cost. Some of our best finds came months after the initial request.

  • No. You're never obligated to purchase. When I find a potential match, you'll receive full details—photos, condition, pricing, and context. If it's not right for any reason, we keep looking. No pressure, no awkward conversations.

  • We price sourced watches fairly relative to current market conditions. You'll see what comparable examples are selling for so you understand the pricing. We're not looking to maximize margin on each transaction—we're building long-term relationships with collectors.

  • Yes. Vintage and rare pieces are where our network shines. Discontinued references, unusual dial variants, limited editions, complicated movements—these require knowledge to authenticate and connections to find. We specialize in exactly this category.

  • At minimum: brand, model, and reference number if known. Helpful additions: year range, dial preferences, condition requirements, box/papers preferences, and budget parameters. The more specific you can be, the more targeted the search. But if you're not sure about every detail, we can discuss what matters most for your particular hunt.

The Feedback Speaks

First-Time Buyer

"I'd never bought a watch over $5K online before. Chris walked me through everything—condition, market value, why this particular reference made sense for me. The Panerai arrived exactly as described."

— M.T., First Panerai Buyer

Collector

"Most dealers stock the same Submariners and Datejusts. Chris has pieces you don't see anywhere else—my Glashutte PanoInverse came from him. He understands collectors."

— J.R., 12-Watch Collection

Seller

"Got quotes from three dealers on my AP Royal Oak. Chris was $2K higher than anyone else—and he could explain exactly how he valued it. Fair price, fast payment."

— D.K., Sold Audemars Piguet

Repeat Client

"Four transactions now, including a DeWitt tourbillon that I'd been chasing for two years. The trust is earned. When Chris says a piece is right, it's right."

— S.M., Repeat Collector

Investor Mindset

"I treat watches like I treat any alternative asset—carefully. Chris gets that. He doesn't oversell appreciation, but he knows which references hold value."

— R.H., Alternative Asset Investor
