Find Me A Specialist Pocket Watch Valuer

How It Works

Simply fill in the contact form and we will get to work for you.  We offer trusted, independent advice to help you sell your signed watch for the highest possible price and will talk you through the different options, whether it be auction or private sale, to help you reach the best solution for you.

How To Sell

If you have a pocket watch you may be considering selling at auction. An auction can be one of the best ways to sell your watch, however, not all auctions are equal so care must be taken when considering which auction house to use. The internet is not always the universal leveller that many salerooms will lead you to believe. Mark Littler Ltd can make a personal introduction to the best saleroom based on your location free of charge. You can then be assured your print will sell for the highest possible price.

If we think it will be more beneficial to you, we can also negotiate private sales, which can save you considerably in commission. Private sales can also be completed swiftly and you will get paid more quickly than if you sell via an auction.

Pocket Watch Valuation Tips

To get the most accurate valuation of your pocket watch simply ensure you provide the following information:

  1. Include the width of the pocket watch across the dial but DO NOT include the winder or bow in this measurement.
  2. Let us know if the watch is working – just knowing that it ticks when wound is enough.
  3. How heavy is the watch?  While we can value pocket watches simply by looking at the images, if you can let us know the total weight of the watch (in grams) then we can be a lot more accurate.
  4. PROVENANCE! Who owned the watch before it came to you?  Perhaps it was a family member who fought in a war, or a relative who had friends in high places.  These stories matter and can impact the value of the watch more than you think.
  5. Boxes and paperwork.  Does the watch have its original box and paperwork?  If so let us know as this will make a difference to the valuation.
