Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Introduced in the mid-twentieth century, the Breitling Cadette series was designed to offer sophisticated dual-register chronograph functionality in slim, elegant cases, frequently powered by Swiss manual-wind movements like the Venus 175.

Chronographs from this era feature gold-plated or solid gold cases, acrylic domed crystals, metallic painted dials with printed scales, and Swiss lever mechanical movements.

Authentic period pieces exhibit precise dial printing with correct brand typography, reference and serial numbers stamped on the case back, and calibre markings matching the movement, such as the Venus 175 stamp.

A mid-century gold chronograph transitions easily between formal tailored suits and smart-casual menswear, pairing well with leather accessories and classic knitwear.

Mechanical timepieces require periodic servicing by a horologist every three to five years, protection from water immersion and magnetic fields, and gentle wiping with a dry microfiber cloth.
