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 1950s, the Silver Arrow line was named after supersonic aircraft and sleek racing cars, representing speed, precision, and modernist design.

These timepieces typically feature stainless steel or gold-plated cases, acrylic crystals, and hand-wound or early automatic mechanical movements crafted with ruby jewel bearings.

Authenticity is verified by checking the serial numbers engraved on the case back and movement against factory records, along with examining the correct signed dial, crown, and calibre markings.

A classic mid-century wristwatch adds understated sophistication to formal tailoring or elevated smart-casual attire, serving as a subtle focal point of personal style.

Mechanical watches require regular servicing by a professional horologist every three to five years, protection from moisture and magnetic fields, and careful manual winding if not worn daily.
