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 hunter case pocket watch features a protective metal cover over the watch dial, hinged on one side and opened via a spring mechanism triggered by pressing the crown, originally designed to protect the crystal during field activities.

During the 1920s, high-quality pocket watch cases were crafted from sterling silver, nickel, or gold plate, housing white porcelain enamel dials and blued steel hands driven by jewel-bearing mechanical movements.

Authenticity is verified by checking the engraved movement serial number against manufacturer production records, inspecting for maker hallmarks inside the silver casing, and confirming period-accurate dial typography.

An antique pocket watch can be worn traditionally using a silver Albert chain attached to a waistcoat pocket, or displayed upright on a dedicated glass dome or metal watch stand inside a study or display cabinet.

To preserve a mechanical pocket watch, store it in a dry, temperature-regulated environment, wind it gently once per day without over-tightening the mainspring, and have the internal movement serviced by a professional horologist every three to five years.
