Why luxury watch prices are soaring
High Demand Even for Used Items (Sell Even If Broken)
Because luxury brand watches are expensive, many people seek out pre-owned items. The more popular the brand, the higher the demand, making it easier to achieve high buyback prices. Furthermore, at OTAKARAYA, we can even purchase broken watches or watches that are only parts. Some of these items can still result in a high buyback price.

Value as a Tangible Asset
Luxury brand watches possess value as "tangible assets." Demand is stable because circulation and production volumes are often limited, and the brand value tends not to decrease. In recent years, an increasing number of people are using brand watches for investment purposes, and purchase prices have been trending upward.

How to Get a Higher Price for Your Watch
Clean Your Watch
No matter how high-end the model or good the brand, the buyback price isn't fixed. Dirt, scratches, etc., can negatively impact the appraisal. While some scratches are somewhat unavoidable, don't just rely on the watch's inherent quality; please clean off dirt as much as possible using a dry cloth, cotton swabs, etc. However, be aware that depending on the watch's materials and the cleaning supplies used, you could potentially cause scratches or strip coatings, making the condition worse. Therefore, only clean within a range you are comfortable with.
Gather All Accessories from the Time of Purchase
When you bought the watch new, it likely came with various accessories such as the case, warranty card, extra links (koma), etc. Even simple paperwork can increase your watch's value and is often more important than you might imagine. Having all the original items is ideal. This is often overlooked, but having everything tends to increase the appraisal amount.
Should You Have it Repaired or Overhauled?
It's true that getting a non-working watch running again can lead to a higher buyback price. However, spending, for example, S$1,000 on repairs does not guarantee a S$1,000 increase in the appraisal value. Furthermore, for antique watches, replacing parts can actually significantly decrease their value as antiques. Even if your watch is broken or seems to need repairs, please consult us at Otaakaraya first.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Vacheron Constantin Purchase
Why do luxury watches retain their value and sell for high prices?
This is because the supply cannot keep up with the demand. While luxury watches have a considerable circulation compared to other types of watches, the demand is so high that they often become difficult to obtain. As a result, the price naturally rises, which significantly impacts the valuation.
When is the best time to sell a luxury watch?
The best time to sell a luxury watch can vary. Sometimes, the right moment comes quickly, while other times, waiting longer can increase the value. There is no definite answer as to when it’s best. If you plan to store the watch for a longer period before selling, it’s important to keep it in good condition. For vintage watches, we recommend proper storage and regular maintenance to ensure they retain their value.
How much can a luxury watch be sold for?
The price can vary depending on the latest market trends, but luxury watches generally have a high asset value, which means their prices tend to hold steady or even increase over time.
Can a watch with a worn-out strap be purchased?
Yes, it is possible. Even if the strap is worn out or torn, we are happy to assess and purchase it in any condition.
Can a watch with a cracked glass be purchased?
Yes, we are happy to assess and purchase watches in any condition. However, since there is a risk of injury from broken glass, please be careful when bringing it in for assessment.
Is it okay to sell a watch that still works but is quite old?
Absolutely, no problem at all. It might even have appreciated in value as an antique if production has since ceased. We are happy to assess watches in any condition.
Can I sell a watch that no longer works?
We would be delighted to appraise it for you. In many cases, bringing us the watch in its non-functional state may result in a higher net amount for you than paying for repairs yourself before selling it.
