Who performs the authentication?+
An independent bench of accredited horologists and gemologists, each with twelve or more years of post-apprenticeship work.
Do you offer appraisals?+
Authentication is a binary finding. A valuation report may be commissioned separately at the time of submission.
What if a piece is declared inauthentic?+
A signed report is still issued. The piece is returned to you, fully insured, with our observations transcribed.
Is the certificate transferable?+
Yes. Ownership can be updated on this registry by either the outgoing or incoming custodian.
How is the piece shipped?+
A prepaid, fully insured label is provided upon submission. We coordinate with a private courier for high-value pieces.
