What If I Don't Have the Original Box and Papers?

Don't worry! We buy watches with or without their original accessories. Here's what you need to know.

Good News!

We still purchase watches without original box and papers. While they add value, many watches are sold "naked" every day.

How Missing Accessories Affect Value

Box Only

Typically reduces value by 5-10% from full set price.

Papers Only

Typically reduces value by 10-15% from full set price.

No Box or Papers

Typically reduces value by 15-25% from full set price. Authentication becomes even more important.

What We Still Need

  • Proof of ownership (receipt, bank statement)
  • Photos of the watch (front, back, serial number)
  • Any service records if available

Pro Tip

Search for original accessories from authorized dealers or certified pre-owned programs. Replacement boxes and warranty cards can sometimes be obtained.
