What makes an Audemars Piguet watch so valuable?
As you might imagine, not all Audemars Piguet watches have the same value at pawn sshops. Instead, depending on a number of factors, your Audemars Piguet watch could be worth significantly more for a loan, than another seemingly identical watch. Before you deciding to pawn your Audemars Piguet watch, you should first get a basic understanding of how much you can expect to borrow against it. So, here is a basic outline of the 4-step guide that our expert appraisers follow when assessing your Audemars Piguet watch:
What condition is it in?
Regardless of any of the following categories for valuing your Audemars Piguet watch, the condition is of paramount importance when pawning it. An Audemars Piguet watch that has been well cared for and admired will have held on to far more of its loan value and be much more desirable for collectors. Note that the condition of your Audemars Piguet watch refers to its outside appearance as well as its functionality on the inside.
How old is it?
As with any collectable item, the age of your Audemars Piguet watch has the potential to greatly increase its price due to increased rarity. Audemars Piguet first began manufacturing watches back in 1875. In 1892 they created the first-ever repeater wristwatch. Holding one such watch that is over one hundred years old would be worth an extremely large sum amongst fine watch collectors and pawnbrokers, of course depending on its condition.
What model is it?
Audemars Piguet has built a number of different models of watches in the last one and a half centuries, some of which have been a success and others which have not been. Certain Audemars Piguet models are more desirable at pawn stores, notably the Jules Audemars, Millenary, and Royal Oak collections. The Jules Audemars made today are based on the original design of this range from 1875. Loans against Audemars Piguet watches, from any of these ranges, are sure to be higher.
What provenance do you hold?
Financing your Audemars Piguet watch is much easier for our London pawnbroking team when they can understand the sort of provenance you hold. It’s best to get together any documentation you have acquired along with the watch during your ownership. This includes certificates of authentication, proof of provenance, receipts and its service history.
Having these documents could make your watch more valuable to pawnbrokers and make it more likely that you’ll get higher financing on your Audemars Piguet watch.
