What Our Authentication Covers

Every authentication includes:

  • Full inspection of case, movement, dial, bracelet and components
  • Verification of reference and serial numbers
  • Confirmation of originality of parts (movement, hands, crown, bezel, etc.)

Once complete, you receive an official SWC Authentication Report detailing findings and confirming the watch’s status.

Why Independent Authentication Matters

Luxury watches are significant investments — but the market contains refurbished, modified and counterfeit pieces that can appear convincing externally. Authentication protects you from:

  • Counterfeit or “Frankenstein” watches made from mixed parts
  • Incorrect references passed off as higher-value models
  • Aftermarket components affecting future resale value
  • Undisclosed previous damage or movement replacements

Our expertise ensures transparency and protects your investment before you commit to a purchase.

For Buyers, Sellers & Insurers

Our authentication service is ideal for:

  • Buyers checking a watch prior to purchase
  • Sellers wishing to reassure prospective customers
  • Owners requiring documentation for insurance or valuation
  • Watches purchased online or overseas

We can also securely ship directly to us from jewellery stores or private sellers if required.
