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.
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.
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.

A quarter repeater pocket watch is a mechanical timepiece equipped with an audible chiming mechanism that sounds the hours and quarter-hours upon activating a slide or push button.

Traditional pocket watches feature enamel dials, glass crystals, blued steel hands, and cases crafted from gold, silver, or heavy gold-plated brass housing steel and brass mechanical movements.

Authentic pieces display period hallmarks or maker signatures on the dial and inner case, fine hand-painted or printed Roman numerals, blued steel hands, and mechanical lever movements.

Pocket watches can be displayed under glass cloches, mounted on specialised brass desktop watch stands, or arranged inside shadow box frames on bookshelf displays or desk surfaces.

Store the watch in a dry, temperature-controlled environment away from magnetic fields, avoid overwinding the mechanical movement, and arrange for professional horological servicing every few years.
