Brickell · Miami-Dade County · the office
Sell your watch in Brickell, where my desk is.
My office is in Brickell, by appointment, and offices in Brickell are where the county page says I meet. If you are here, the watch can be on my tray at a time you book. If not, a prepaid, insured FedEx label brings it.
- The office is in Brickell, Monday to Saturday by appointment
- A prepaid, fully insured FedEx label for anyone not nearby
- A reply to your photos within 1 business day, written by me
Who this page is for
The one neighbourhood where the appointment is at my address.
This page is for someone in Brickell with a luxury watch to sell or trade. Brickell is a neighbourhood of the City of Miami, just south of the river, and it is where my office is. The county page names it as a place I meet; the about page calls it the Brickell office, by appointment.
The first step is the form: photos, the reference, a line about papers and service. I read it and reply within 1 business day with a number and the reasoning. That part is the same from Brickell as from anywhere.
What changes is the second step. You can book a time and bring the watch to my desk, or I can meet at your office in Brickell, as I already do. If you would rather not, the prepaid FedEx Priority Overnight label, insured to the declared value, works the same as it does for a seller three counties away.
From Brickell
Why the appointment is the easy choice here.
The office is in Brickell
By appointment, Monday to Saturday, after-hours by request. For a seller in the neighbourhood the inspection is a short walk or ride away.
Or I come to your office
Offices in Brickell are one of the places I meet in Miami-Dade. If your desk suits you better than mine, say so when you write.
The label still exists
Prepaid FedEx Priority Overnight on my account, insured to the declared value, signature at both ends. USA only.
Paid within 24 hours of inspection
Wire or certified check once I have had the watch in hand. If we do not make a deal, it goes back insured, at my cost.
Before you write
Brands, limits, and what to carry over.
Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Cartier
Bought outright or taken in trade. Each brand has its own page on what moves the number.
View →Omega, Breitling, Vacheron, JLC, Tudor, Panerai, IWC, Zenith
Same inspection, same two time promises, same desk.
View →Not bought
Smartwatches, fashion-brand watches, and projects without provenance. I say so in the reply, not at the door.
Photos first, even if you walk it over
Dial straight on in daylight, case back, clasp open, card or papers in frame. Then bring the watch, papers, box, and spare links.
Hours
Monday to Saturday by appointment, after-hours by request. A lunch hour works if you book it.
How it works
Four steps, one of them a short walk.
01
Get an offer
Submit the form with photos and the reference. I reply personally within 1 business day with the number and the reasoning.
02
Meet or ship
Book a time at my office in Brickell, have me come to yours, or take the prepaid insured label. Elsewhere in Miami-Dade I also meet at residences in Coral Gables.
03
Inspect and confirm
At the desk, in front of you: case, movement, serial, papers. If shipped, the box is opened on camera. Match the photos and the offer stands.
04
Get paid
Wire or certified check within 24 hours of inspection. No deal, and the watch goes home with you or back by insured courier, at my cost.
Meet or ship
Walk it over, or let FedEx carry it.

The detail
Selling from Brickell, in full.
How an appointment works from Brickell
Brickell is a neighbourhood of Miami, not a separate city, and it is the one place on this site where the appointment can be at my address. The office is in Brickell, by appointment, Monday to Saturday with after-hours by request. The county page also says I meet at offices in Brickell, so if your own desk is easier, I come to you. I-95 ends at US-1 on Brickell's edge and Metrorail and Metromover both stop here, so reaching the office from the rest of the city is rarely the problem.
Or ship it: the label, the insurance, the camera
If you are away, or would rather not carry the watch across the neighbourhood, I send a prepaid FedEx Priority Overnight label on my account. Insured to the declared value, signed for at both ends, and opened on camera at the same desk where I would have met you. If we do not agree, it goes back the same way at my cost.
What I buy, and what I do not
Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Cartier, Omega, Breitling, Vacheron Constantin, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Tudor, Panerai, IWC, and Zenith. Not smartwatches, not fashion-brand watches, not projects without provenance. A watch without papers is still appraised, and the reply says what the missing card does on that reference.
Trade instead of sell
The appraisal works as credit against anything in the catalog or a piece sourced to order. In Brickell that can happen across the desk: your watch on the tray, the one you are taking home beside it. Purchased pieces are also hand-delivered to South Florida residents at no charge.
When selling to a dealer is not the right call
If you have the months for a private sale, you may do better, and I will tell you so once I have seen the watch. A watch that means something to you is not a number; keep it. A replica I will name and decline. What I offer is a clean, insured, documented sale from one person who can explain the figure.
How to prepare your submission
- Dial straight on in daylight, no flash.
- Case back and clasp open.
- Card or papers beside the watch, or say they are missing.
- Reference number and any service history.
- Whether you want to come to the office, have me come to yours, or ship.
