Frequently Asked Questions
Our auctions do not have a buyer’s premium. The winning bid is the final price, so you can bid as much as you would like to purchase the watch for.
First, ensure that you are signed into your account and have completed the registration process. To place a bid, visit the individual page for the watch you intend to bid on, then click 'Bid Now' in order to place a bid. Bidding will increase by set increments and you will only be able to a place a bid of the next increment value.
You will receive an email confirmation to confirm that you have the highest bid, as well as an email notification if you are subsequently outbid.
A regular bid will instantly place a bid for the next bidding increment value. So, if the current highest bid is £10,000 you will only be able to place a bid of £11,000. The set increments will increase in-line with the value of the highest bid.
Meanwhile, by setting up an automatic bid, our system will automatically place new bids on your behalf each time you are outbid. Use the (+) and (-) buttons to increase your automatic bid. Our system will then keep on bidding for you, by the smallest possible increase each time, until your maximum price is reached.
No. All bids placed in our auctions are final and cannot be removed or reduced once placed.
A countdown clock is displayed on both the main auction page and bidding page. Individual lot pages will have their own countdown clocks, indicating the specific closing time for that lot.
If you have won the lot you were bidding on, you will receive an email confirmation immediately following the end of the auction. Our Accounts department will send you an invoice, in addition to payment and shipping instructions.
If you are outbid during the auction, you will receive an email notification. If you are on the product page, you will receive an alert.
