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.

Produced during the mid-20th century, Certina Waterking models are Swiss-made dress watches known for their mechanical movements, minimalist dial layouts, and water-resistant case construction standard for late 1960s horology.

These timepieces were built using stainless steel or chrome-plated cases, acrylic crystals, metallic dials with applied indices, and leather straps secured by spring bars.

Authentic examples feature crisp brand typography on the dial, standard reference and serial numbers stamped on the case, and a Swiss-made mechanical movement carrying the makers mark.

A mid-century dress watch functions as a subtle personal accessory, complementing modern business attire, tailored suits, or casual wardrobe ensembles.

To preserve a mechanical watch, avoid exposure to moisture and magnetic fields, wind the crown gently, and store it in a dry environment when not in use.
