The value of your pre-owned Audemars Piguet watch is determined by several key factors. Our expert appraisers consider each element to ensure you receive the most accurate and competitive offer possible.
Condition: The overall physical and mechanical state of the watch. Excellent condition, with minimal wear and no need for extensive servicing, commands a higher price.
Originality: Whether all components are original factory parts. Watches with original dials, hands, and movements are highly sought after by collectors.
Box & Papers: The presence of the original box, warranty cards, service records, and provenance significantly enhances a watch’s value and buyer confidence.
Rarity & Demand: Limited editions, discontinued models, and highly desirable references (like specific Royal Oak or Royal Oak Offshore variants) often command premium prices due to scarcity and collector interest.
Materials: The case material (e.g., stainless steel, gold, platinum) and any diamond settings play a role in the intrinsic value.
Market Trends: Current demand in the secondary market for specific models and brands, which our specialists constantly monitor.
While all Audemars Piguet timepieces hold significant value, certain pre-owned models consistently command exceptional prices in the secondary market due to their iconic status and collector demand. At BQ Watches, we actively seek and provide strong offers for these popular Audemars Piguet watches:
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, introduced in 1972, is perhaps the brand's most recognisable timepiece. Its iconic octagonal bezel with exposed screws, designed by Gérald Genta, revolutionised luxury watchmaking by elevating stainless steel to a prestigious material. We are particularly interested in a wide range of Royal Oak models, including chronographs and various metal configurations, for immediate purchase or exchange.
Named after one of the brand's founders, the Jules Audemars collection is celebrated for its classic, elegant aesthetic and exceptional mechanical complexity. These dress watches often feature sophisticated complications such as minute repeaters and tourbillons. As the line was discontinued in 2019, examples are becoming increasingly coveted, making them highly desirable for our inventory.
The Audemars Piguet Millenary series, launched in 1995, stands out with its distinctive elliptical case and decentralised dial, which often showcases the intricate movement within. These watches are admired for their unique design and horological innovation, including features like quadrennial calendars. We are always interested in Millenary models that offer distinct visual appeal and mechanical artistry.
Honouring the other founder, the Edward Piguet collection featured elegant rectangular cases, distinguishing it from other Audemars Piguet lines. Similar to the Jules Audemars, this line also ceased production, which has increased its appeal and collectibility in the pre-owned market. We consider all Edward Piguet references for valuation and acquisition.
