Frequently Asked Questions
How do I source a watch through Pinnacle Chrono?
The process is direct and efficient. Simply complete our online Sourcing Form with the details of the specific watch you are hunting for. Our team will review the request and reach out promptly to confirm the details and begin the search.
How long does it typically take to locate a sourced watch?
The timeline depends entirely on the rarity and global velocity of the specific reference. Highly popular modern references can often be located within 24 to 48 hours, while ultra-rare vintage pieces or limited complications may take a few weeks to trace. We will keep you updated throughout the entire pursuit.
What types of watches can you source?
Through our global brokerage, we can source virtually any luxury timepiece in existence. This includes current production sports models from Rolex, high-complication masterworks from Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet, rare independent watchmakers, and discontinued or vintage vintage references.
Can you source brand-new, unworn watches, or just pre-owned?
We can source both. When submitting your request, you can specify whether you are looking for an unworn, fully stickered "box and papers" set, or an immaculate, investment-grade pre-owned example.
How do you guarantee the authenticity of a sourced watch?
Authenticity is our absolute priority. Every watch sourced through our network is physically vetted, inspected, and verified by trusted specialists and master watchmakers before it is delivered to you. We guarantee 100% authenticity on every asset we procure.
Do sourced watches come with their original boxes and paperwork?
Our standard practice is to source "full sets"—meaning the timepiece includes its original factory box, manuals, hang tags, and original warranty papers or cards. If a rare reference is only available without papers, we will disclose this transparently beforehand.
How is the final price of a sourced watch determined?
Pricing is dictated by real-time secondary market demand and global availability. We don't deal in hidden fees or artificial markups. We provide a fair, transparent, and comprehensive market-rate quote that includes all sourcing, tracking, and authentication costs upfront.
Is a deposit required before you begin sourcing a timepiece?
For highly accessible models, we begin the global search with no upfront commitment. For ultra-rare, high-value, or highly specific "grail" references, a fully refundable intent deposit may be required to activate our international supplier network and secure the asset on your behalf.
What happens if the watch arrives and it isn't what I expected?
We pride ourselves on absolute accuracy. Before shipping, we provide you with high-definition photography, video, and timegrapher mechanical readouts of the exact watch we sourced for you. The watch you see and approve in the media is exactly the watch that arrives at your door.
Can I trade in my current watch toward a sourced timepiece?
Absolutely. You can seamlessly combine our services. You can submit your current watch for a trade-in evaluation, and we will apply that top-dollar equity directly toward the cost of the new timepiece we are sourcing for you.
