Forbes stated that Chanels, watchmaking technology is always at the service of the design without compromising technical expertise or craftsmanship. With 30 years of uniting the watch matching tradition with their signature allure, there has never been a more exciting time for Chanel timepiece enthusiasts to expand their collection.
How To Sell Chanel Watches

- Choose a reputable Chanel watch buyer
- Get a quote
- Get a final price and get paid
1. Gather All Necessary Information
In order to get a price quote, you will need to learn the characteristics of your Chanel watch. The following factors affect the value of your timepiece:
- Model: Certain watch models, such as limited-edition pieces are worth more as they have a higher demand from collectors. For example, some collectors may be more interested in buying an original PREMIÈRE watch from 1987 than they would with a more modern model.
- Condition of the watch: If you watch has been regularly serviced and is in great condition, you will have a strong resale price. However, if your watch is damaged or has been repaired with components from another brand, its value will be lower.
- Box and Papers: These refer to the original box your Chanel watch came in as well as its official documents. While you can sell Chanel watch without their box and papers, having them will help validate your watchs authenticity and increase your final offer. If you do not have these, see if you have other documents such as the watchs instruction booklet and warranty card.
