    Why Authenticate Your Timepiece?

    The watch market is flooded with fake watches which are becoming more and more convincing, so distinguishing them from the real deal can be challenging for buyers and collectors who may not be able to spot the subtle differences.

     

    Although fakes might look the part, they lack the proper craftmanship of their genuine counterparts as they utilise cheaper materials, which leads to depreciation, lower value, and ultimately breakage.

     

    The authentication process simplified

    What makes us different is we are the only independent watch servicing center in Dubai to verify the authenticity of your watch using two separate technicians. If you’re interested to find out more, we have outlined a brief step-by-step process of authentication below:


    STEP 1) INITIAL INSPECTION

    We receive your watch at our in-house servicing center in the Gold & Diamond Park and hand it over to our first technician. The first technician will check your watch’s functions as per its specifications. This includes water resistance according to the brand’s standards.


    STEP 2) INSPECTION SHEET

    Using an inspection sheet, we note the details and conditions of the watch, from case conditions, to dial and hands. If your watch was handed in with the original papers, card, or certificate, we will compare the details on the papers with the watch to ensure it is consistent.


    STEP 3) SECOND TECHNICIAN CHECK

    After we open the case back and check the movement to not only authenticate, but to make sure the calibre is accurate as per watch model number and production period, we will then hand the watch over to our second technician to give it another thorough examination.


    STEP 4) RECEIVE YOUR CERTIFICATE

    Once our second technician is happy with the result, we will inform you about your watch’s authenticity and provide an official letter to confirm the findings. It's as simple as that! The process only takes between 30 - 45 minutes, so you can wait in our showroom and see the process in realtime.
