The Process

Describe the watch

Include the brand, model, reference, year, condition, and budget. A link to a listing you have seen helps.
We search the network

Our team contacts verified sellers across the market and reports back with what is available, at what price and in what condition.
You decide

We supply photographs and video for each option. Nothing proceeds until you say so and declining every option costs you nothing.
The watch comes to Dubai

Once agreed, we deliver the piece to our Prive Residences, Dubai Hills hub, inspect and authenticate it with our watchmakers, then invoice it and hand it over or deliver it to you insured.

How your trade-in is valued

Brand, model, reference and condition set the figure, measured against what that reference is currently trading at rather than against a fixed list. Box, papers and service history all raise it.

Trade-in values are fair and transparent, and our team will explain how the figure for your watch has been reached.

Exchange

What you can exchange for

Anything in stock, plus anything we can source. If the piece you want is not in the collection, our sourcing team draws on a network of more than 150 verified sellers worldwide, and the trade-in value still applies against it.

Exchange

How does a part exchange work?

Tell us both watches. The piece you are trading and the piece you want, with reference numbers where you have them.

Receive both figures. We value your trade-in and confirm the price of the watch you are moving to, so you see the difference clearly before committing.

Complete the exchange. Bring both parts to Prive Residences, Dubai Hills, or handle it remotely with insured collection and delivery.

Settle the balance. Pay the difference and the new watch is yours, carrying a 12-month warranty.

Exchange

Suits you if you already know which watch you want next. Your money stays in a watch rather than passing through your account, and the transaction completes in one step.

Exchange

Selling outright

Suits you if you want the cash, or if you are undecided about the replacement. Payment is released the same day the watch is approved.
Both start with the same free valuation, and you can switch between them at any point before completing.

How does watch part exchange work in Dubai?

You trade your current watch against a piece from our collection. We value your watch on brand, model, reference and condition, apply that value to the purchase, and you pay only the difference.

How long will it take?

Anywhere from an hour to several months, depending on the reference and how many examples are on the market. We give a realistic estimate for your specific request before starting.

Do I need the box and papers to exchange a watch?

No. A full set improves the trade-in figure, and watches are regularly accepted without one.

How long does an exchange take?

Typically a few days to a week, depending on how quickly both parties confirm and whether the watch you want is in stock.
