PHOTOS

How to photograph your Rolex? Most smart phones have high resolution cameras capable of taking quality pictures. We are far from experts in photography but some general guidelines to follow are:Do not to use flash and don't place the watch directly under a bright light that it will reflect. If you can rest the mobile on something to reduce movement when you are taking the picture that will increase the sharpness of the picture. Focus on angles/shots that will be most helpful to us when trying to determine value, we've included details on what we'd like you to photograph below:

DIAL

The dial can tell us a lot about the watch. Usually it will indicate the brand and model and any characteristics that make the watch unique, for example in some models a blue dial may be more valuable than a black dial. It is helpful for us to see if the hands are intact and if there is any historic water/light damage.

CLASP

This helps us determine the quality of the watch and can often indicate an age range as many manufacturers change their clasps as they develop their models.

BRACELET STRETCH

This helps us determine how much wear the watch has had. A tight strap with very little stretch is always preferable and realises a higher value.

ACCESSORIES

Having the original box and any accessories can really add value to your watch. Please photograph anything that accompanies the watch including boxes (inner and outer where applicable), swing tags, instruction booklets, warranty booklets, bezel protectors and wallets.

CASE FROM THE RIGHT SIDE

This helps us determine the general condition of the case and any buttons that might be present including the crown.

CASE FROM THE LEFT SIDE

Another vantage point to help us understand the wear that the watch may have had.

PAPERS

It is helpful to photograph any detail included on paperwork that is specific to your watch. This includes model numbers, serial numbers (feel free to obscure part of the serial number if you feel more comfortable), the name of the authorised dealer, location of origin and original purchase date.

DEFECTS

Submitting photos of any defects is really useful when helping us arrive at the most realistic of offers. This picture features an issue with a crown becoming completely detached from the movement. This is a picture that a potential seller sent us.
