Key Factors in Watch Appraisal

I called and made an appointment, from start to finish, he was kind, welcoming, professional and extremely helpful in explaining the process. I immediately felt at ease as he began categorizing, inspecting and testing the pieces. He has impressive credentials and a great deal of knowledge. I learned so much from him! Apart from that, he is trustworthy, he will explain things thoroughly and make the whole process as smooth as possible. I am grateful for Paul.

I had a few pieces that needed to be appraised to be covered by my insurance policy. I had a great experience with Paul whose the owner of the business. He provided very professional appraisal documents in a timely manner. While I was at there I also noticed that they also buy estate jewelry and silver. I later went home gathered some jewelry and a silver flatware set that I no longer use and sold them to Paul. The price was very reasonable. I would highly recommend this business!
