Watch Sourcing FAQs

Can you source any luxury watch?

Yes. From Rolex and Patek Philippe to Richard Mille and Audemars Piguet, we source everything—especially the hard-to-find models. Whether it’s a discontinued Nautilus or a boutique-only release, our global network of trusted partners ensures we can locate the piece you’re looking for.

How long does the sourcing process take?

It varies. Some watches can be sourced and delivered in as little as 48 hours. Extremely rare models may take longer, but we keep you informed throughout the process with transparent timelines.

Are your watches authentic and certified?

Always. Every watch we source is thoroughly authenticated and, when possible, comes with original paperwork, box, and manufacturer documentation. Trust is at the heart of everything we do.

Can you help me buy a watch as an investment?

Absolutely. We regularly advise collectors and investors on watches with strong appreciation potential. We track global market trends and guide you toward timepieces that combine beauty, rarity, and long-term value.

Do you offer trade-ins or buy pre-owned watches?

Yes, we assist select clients looking to sell or trade exceptional timepieces. We offer a discreet service through our trusted network and can help facilitate private sales for the right pieces.

Hermès Handbags

Hermès Sourcing FAQs

Do you only source Birkins and Kellys?

Not at all. While Birkins and Kellys are client favourites, we have also sourced Constance, Lindy, Picotin, Evelyne, and seasonal runway releases—including exotic leathers and limited-edition styles.

Can I request a specific size, leather, or hardware?

Yes—down to the last detail. Whether you’re looking for a Kelly 28 in Bleu Pale with gold hardware or a Bleu Paon Constance Mini in Matte Alligator with Palladium, we tailor our sourcing to your exact preferences.

Are your bags brand new?

Many are brand new, and all are in exceptional condition. We also offer pristine pre-loved pieces, each carefully inspected and authenticated by our team. Condition and provenance are key.

How are the prices determined?

Prices reflect rarity, global demand, leather type, hardware, condition, and current market value. While some of these bags may technically exist in-store, access is incredibly limited—most clients simply never get the opportunity. Our pricing reflects that exclusivity and the ability to source what others can’t.

Can I see the bags in person?

Some of our bags are available for private viewings at our Mayfair boutique—perfect for clients who prefer to see and feel the piece before purchase. However, many of the rarest or most customised pieces are sourced to order and can only be secured once a deposit is placed. In these cases, we provide detailed photos, condition reports, and full authentication before final delivery.

For international clients, we also offer secure virtual consultations and insured global shipping.
