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.

During the 1960s, Swiss watchmakers produced minimalist dress watches defined by slim metal cases, clear silvered dials with baton markers, and self-winding mechanical movements.

These timepieces were typically constructed with solid gold or gold-plated cases, acrylic crystals over the dial, and genuine leather wrist straps.

Authentic models feature crisp logo engraving, precise reference numbers stamped inside the case back, and official hallmark stamps indicating the gold purity.

A mid-century gold dress watch pairs with formal tailoring or smart-casual attire, functioning as an understated everyday wrist accessory.

Mechanical automatic timepieces require professional servicing every three to five years, protection from water exposure, and storage away from magnetic fields.
