Hi All-
I want to have my new purchase appraised so that I can tack it onto my homeowners policy in the rare case that it's not on my wrist and something happens to it, I'd like to have it covered.
I purchased my watch from Jomashop, have no doubt in my mind that it's real but a lot of watch shops won't appraise it without AD documents...I understand why, they're not in the business of authenticating.
My question is: will an AD authenticate a watch if you did not buy it from them? Would I take it to one of their boutiques or Tourneau, etc?
I'd like some paperwork to ensure it's authentic for insurance purposes...I have no intention of selling or trading it.
I've read a thousand different answers and the best I saw has me waiting a few years and sending the watch into the manufacturer to have it serviced and with that comes documentation.
Has anyone else stumbled across this conundrum? How did you go about authenticating the watch?
Thank you much!
JB
