Selling a IWC Aquatimer without box or papers
Missing paperwork does not put a sale out of reach. We may consider a IWC Aquatimer without its original box, papers, warranty card or receipt.
Any purchase remains subject to authentication, condition inspection, and ownership and identification checks. Documentation can affect valuation depending on the piece, and we will always explain how.
How Fair Vintage assesses your IWC Aquatimer
We look at originality first — dial, hands, case and, where relevant, bezel and bracelet — then movement condition and any service history.
Replacement parts, prior polishing, provenance, and box and papers all feed into the assessment. We explain our reasoning so the offer is one you can understand and rely on.
