My Timeless Pieces

Delray Beach · Palm Beach County · by appointment

Sell your watch in Delray Beach.

Delray is a few exits north of Boca, where I am twice a month, and south of Palm Beach proper, which I schedule around the season. Meet me in the county on a date we agree, or ship on my prepaid, insured FedEx label.

  • An appointment in Palm Beach County
  • Or a prepaid, fully insured FedEx label
  • A reply from me within 1 business day

Who this page is for

Between Boca and Boynton, with a watch to sell.

For anyone in Delray Beach with a luxury watch to sell or trade who wants to know, before the form, how the handover works. Delray Beach is on the coast between Boca Raton and Boynton Beach, on I-95 and US-1. The county page names it, and sets out my habit for the area: Boca twice a month, Palm Beach proper around the season.

Step one is the appraisal form: photos, the reference if you know it, the papers you can find. I reply within 1 business day with a number and the reasoning.

Step two is yours. Meet me in Palm Beach County on a date we agree, with the inspection done in front of you, or take the prepaid, insured FedEx Priority Overnight label. The offer is confirmed after inspection, and paid within 24 hours of it.

Why this works from Delray

Close to my Boca days. Or a label at your door.

A few exits from Boca, twice a month

My fixed Palm Beach County dates are in Boca Raton, the next city south. If one suits you, say so; if you would rather I meet you nearer Delray, that is scheduled like the rest of the county.

Your county, not mine

I meet clients in their county. Delray Beach is Palm Beach County, and an appointment there is booked by date, around the season.

The label if you would rather not wait

Prepaid FedEx Priority Overnight, insured, signature at both ends, opened on camera at my desk.

Paid within 24 hours of inspection

Wire or certified check after the inspection and the confirmed offer. No deal, and it goes back insured, at my cost.

The detail

Selling from Delray Beach, in full.

How an appointment works from Delray Beach

The county page names Delray Beach and gives my habit for the area in two sentences: I'm in Boca twice a month, and for Palm Beach proper I schedule appointments around the season. Delray sits just north of Boca on I-95 and US-1, so the Boca days are the nearest fixed points on my calendar. Once you have a number, we agree a date: one of those days, or one nearer you, set the way I set the rest of the county. The inspection happens in front of you, and the offer is confirmed on the spot.

Or ship it: the label, the insurance, the camera

I email a FedEx Priority Overnight label, prepaid and insured to the declared value. Signature required when FedEx collects the box and when I sign for it. USA only. The box is opened on camera at my desk, then the watch gets the same inspection it would get across a table. If anything differs from your photos, I call first.

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. Full set or bare watch, both get a number; the set moves it. Not bought: smartwatches, fashion-brand watches, projects without provenance.

Trade instead of sell

If you want a different watch rather than cash, the same inspection sets your credit against the catalog or a piece I source to order. Purchased pieces are hand delivered to South Florida residents at no charge, so a Delray trade can close in a single meeting.

When selling to a dealer is not the right call

With months to spare and the patience to vet buyers, a private sale may bring more, and I will tell you when I think so. A watch that carries more memory than market belongs on your wrist, not on my tray. A replica I will name as one and decline.

How to prepare your submission

  • Dial straight on in daylight, no flash.
  • Case back, and the serial between the lugs if readable.
  • Clasp open, spare links beside it.
  • Card or papers next to the watch, or say they are missing.
  • A Boca day, a date nearer Delray, or the label, and when you are free.

Delray Beach

A real number, then a Boca day, a Delray date, or a label.

Send the photos and the reference. I reply within 1 business day, meet you in Palm Beach County or ship a prepaid insured label, and pay within 24 hours of inspection.
