Are you thinking of taking a loan on your Chopard watch?
Chopard ladies’ and gents’ watches are among the most luxurious timepieces in the world, and highly desirable assets at pawn shops. Lovingly hand-crafted in Switzerland by skilled artisan watchmakers, these luxury watches exude prestige, glamour, and class and are often considered a great alternative to some of the most expensive watches in the world i.e. Rolex, Patek Philippe. If you’re thinking “should I pawn my Chopard watch?”, the good news is that it’s relatively easy to secure loans on Chopard watches and jewelry.
The Swiss watchmaker, Chopard, first began making pocket watches and ladies’ watches back in 1860. As such, older models are becoming rarer, which only serves to increase their desirability. Chopard watches are regularly purchased as investments and are often used as collateral.
Nowadays, it’s possible to borrow funds with loans on Chopard watches as a means to access much-needed short-term funds, perhaps to go towards another investment or purchase.

Why are Chopard watches so valuable?
While values can vary depending on the model, it’s not unusual for some Chopard watches to command huge sums at auctions and pawn shops. Depending on a number of factors, your Chopard timepiece could be worth a lot more than you think – even if it seems identical to other Chopard watches. If you’re thinking “should I pawn my Chopard watch?” you should first try to gain an understanding of its worth with our 4-step appraisal guide:
How old is your Chopard watch?
Like all collectibles, the age of your Chopard timepiece could increase its value due to exponential rarity. The very first Chopard pocket watches, such as the Luis Ulysses model, are over 150 years old. Anyone in possession of such a watch could expect to receive in the region of £1,500 to £6,000, depending on its condition, hence these Chopar watch models are highly valuable at pawn shops too. That’s not to say that modern Chopard watches don’t command a reasonable price tag either. In fact, pre-owned Chopard Classic Racing model watches routinely fetch around £1,300 at auction, while the Mille Miglia model (a limited run of just 250) can command up to £7,500.
What condition is your Chopard watch in?
The condition of your Chopard watch is arguably the most important factor when it comes to pawning or selling it. A well-cared for Chopard watch will retain more loan value that one that has seen its share of knocks, bumps, and scratches. Of course, functionality matters just as much as appearance. The better the overall condition, the higher the price tag and the better the loan you’ll receive for your Chopard watch at pawn shops.
Provenance
For pawnbrokers, lending against a Chopard watch becomes much easier if you can provide provenance. Your Chopard watch will be considered much more valuable when pawning it, if you can provide documentation such as proof of purchase, service histories, and certificates of authenticity.
Type of model
Over the past 150 years, Chopard has manufactured a variety of different models over the years – some of which have been designed for practicality (like the Classic Racing model), and others that are part of a limited run (like the Mille Miglia 161889 series). Rarer models like the L.U.C XPS 1860 Edition are much more desirable, on account of the materials used in their manufacturing and the market scarcity of the model.
How much do Chopard watches worth at pawn shops?
In 2000, a 201-karat Chopard watch (simply known as the Chopard 201) sold for no less than £15.7 million. The piece in question featured pink, blue, and white diamonds on the face, with a further 163 white and yellow diamonds surrounding its bracelet. This colorful, glitzy, and regal timepiece is regarded as one of the most opulent luxury watches in history.
