About Luxury Chrono Pieces
Luxury Chrono Pieces is an independent reseller of pre-owned watches, founded in 2021 by a small group of collectors. We buy, inspect and resell pre-owned Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Omega, Richard Mille and other timepieces. We are not an authorised dealer for any brand and we are not affiliated with any watch manufacturer. Since our founding we have served 847+ collectors worldwide with a 4.9/5.0 customer satisfaction rating, backed by our own 1-year warranty and 14-day money-back guarantee.
Our Mission
Every timepiece we list has been bought on the secondary market - from private sellers, estate sales and pre-owned trade. Before a watch goes on the site our own team examines it and writes up what we find, including any wear. We would rather describe a watch accurately and lose a sale than oversell it. If there is a detail you want confirmed - condition of the bezel, the exact papers that come with it, service history - ask us and we will tell you what we know and what we do not.
How We Source Our Timepieces
Private Collections & Estate Sales
Many of our pieces come from private collectors, or from estates being wound up.
Trade-Ins
Existing clients trade in a watch against another piece, and the trade-in comes back into stock.
Pre-Owned Wholesale
We buy from established dealers in the pre-owned trade, including in Switzerland and Hong Kong.
Direct From Owners
Owners approach us directly to sell a single watch.
How We Inspect A Watch
This is what our own team does in-house before a watch is listed. We do not issue certificates of authenticity and we do not claim to speak for any manufacturer. If you want an independent opinion before you buy, we will happily hold the watch while you arrange one.
Condition & Reference Check
We record the reference and serial as they appear on the watch, and photograph the piece as it actually is.
Movement Run & Timed
The movement is run and timed over several days so we can report how it is performing.
External Components
Case, dial, hands, crystal, bezel, crown and bracelet are examined under magnification for wear, damage and fitment.
Written Condition Report
What we found is written up and goes with the watch, including anything we are unsure about.
How A Purchase Works
No payment is taken on this website - there is no checkout and we do not collect card, bank or cryptocurrency details through any form here. You send an enquiry about a specific watch, a member of our team replies to confirm it is still available and agrees the final price and delivery arrangements with you directly.
Our Guarantee
Every Luxury Chrono Pieces timepiece ships with a 1-year warranty from us covering movement defects and material failures. Additionally, our 14-day satisfaction guarantee means you can return any purchase for a full refund if you're not completely satisfied.
