How To Calculate the Value of a Marine Chronometer, Clock, Vintage Watch or Timepiece?

There are several things that contribute to the value of a used brand name or a luxury watch. Such as:

1. Current condition and age

2. Vintage value

3. Features and complications

4. Reputation of the brand

Be sure to look for a buyer that considers each of these factors in order to get the most for your watch or timepiece.
