PREPARATION

Before You Start Bidding

Before placing a bid, there are a few things to understand.

To join an auction, a temporary authorisation hold equal to 10% of the starting bid will be placed on your credit card.

This helps confirm that bidders have a genuine interest in taking part in the auction and discourages non-serious bidding.

temporary hold

The hold is not a charge.

If you do not win the auction, the authorisation hold will be released automatically.

At the end of the auction, the highest bid wins the watch.

If you win, you will pay your winning bid together with the Buyer's Premium, which is 10% of the winning bid.
The authorisation hold will be used as the first part of your Buyer's Premium payment.
After payment is completed, the watch will go through a final check before collection or shipping.
Bid only when the watch feels right for you.
