Vintage Watch Appraisal and Documentation in Seattle

What’s Involved?

When you entrust your watch to Spring and Barrel, its journey begins with an in-depth inspection and photo documentation by a certified watchmaker. Bring your watch to our shop in Seattle, or we can provide an insured label for overnight shipping.

We provide two tiers of documentation:

1) A standard appraisal for insurance documentation, estate inventory, donation receipt, or probate requirements.

2) An in-depth appraisal with historical context. Ideal for insuring rare pieces, valuing heirlooms for family records, or in preparation for sale.

Professional appraisal and condition reports begin at $275 plus insured shipping.
