Select the watch passport that suits your watch:
You'll receive an e-mail confirming your order.
Then our team will send you your Watch Certificate™ by tracked postal mail, specifying by e-mail:
- the shipment references
- the unique reference of your Watch Certificate™.
If you're in a hurry, don't wait for the parcel: the certificate reference is enough for the watchmaker to carry out the inspection.
Make an appointment with one of them (list by clickinghere) and bring all the accessories, boxes and paper for the inspection: they help to enhance the value of your watch.
If the inspection is quick, we still advise you to leave your watch with the watchmaker for at least a day. This will allow the inspector to take his time, and possibly the expert to ask for clarification if necessary.
If you can't go to an approved watchmaker, choose one and send him your watch by secure courier, insured to the value of your watch. We recommend the services of our partner myflyingbox.com. You are responsible for organizing and paying for the transport of your watch to and from the shop.

The benefits of
Watch Certificate™
You can request a market value from your simple watch passport, as an option. This option is included if you order a certification. The market value of your watch is certified by a recognized expert. Thanks to his official signature, it is legally binding, notably with all insurance companies.
In the event of theft, Watch Certificate™ will assist you in your efforts to retrieve your watch. We blacklist the watch (its serial numbers) with the brand and all of our partners to curb resale and maximize your chances of finding it.
The complete history of your watch is recorded in your Watch Certificate™. Each time the certificate is updated at a watchmaker's, the changes are recorded so you can track the evolution of your piece.
As an option, you can request a flight status certificate from your single watch passport. This option is included if you order a certification.
The first step in certification is to compare the watch's serial number with the largest international database of stolen watches. If the serial number has not been reported, the watch's provenance is considered compliant, and an attestation of non-theft is added to the certificate.
If you order a certification, the watchmaker's passport is signed by both the watchmaker who inspected the watch and the expert who validated it. This expert has been selected according to criteria of reputation, competence and independence. This guarantees the accuracy and transparency of the information.
Your Watch Certificate™
Your Watch Certificate™ is registered in the blockchain in the form of an NFT to constitute a genuine evolving title deed. This is then updated at each event in the life of your watch. The collection of personal data scrupulously complies with the best standards in terms of personal data (RGPD, etc).
If you've opted for certification, your passport has 53 checkpoints that are scrutinized during the watch certification process. From the dial to the hands, including the bracelet and all accessories. All checkpoints are verified by the watchmaker and then validated by the expert.
The inspection carried out by the certified partner includes high-definition photographs, taken with a special camera. If you have opted for certification, a minimum of 8 photos will be taken - including the movement, watch interior and serial numbers.
The certificate takes the form of a PVC or metal card (notably stainless steel or titanium). Your Watch Certificate™ measures 86.8 mm wide by 54.8 mm high.
