About

THE COMPANY
Located in the heart of Antwerp, we specialise in the purchase, sale, sourcing, and authentication of modern and vintage timepieces — including Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe, Omega, Breitling, Cartier, IWC, Richard Mille, Zenith and more.
Whether you are purchasing your first top luxury watch or building a collection of rare and important watches, our mission is to guide you with integrity, expertise, and genuine care. We believe that transparency and respect should always come before business.
With us, you don't just buy a watch; you also acquire our experience, technical expertise, and the assurance that what you buy is genuine, original, and of legal origin. We combine passion with professionalism and attention to detail.
Every watch we sell is legally acquired, thoroughly inspected, carefully evaluated, and presented with complete transparency. Each watch comes with an invoice issued in your name, a lifetime warranty on authenticity, and a two-year warranty on mechanical performance.
Selling your valuable watch should be safe and straightforward. Whether you’re upgrading to a new model or taking advantage of rising market values, you can count on a fair market offer and immediate bank payment.
We are always happy to share our knowledge openly, so you can make an informed decision.
MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDER
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
Thank you for visiting.
My passion for luxury watches began in 2005 when I first saw a Patek Philippe video advertisement. It opened the door to a fascinating world that continues to inspire me today. In 2012, that passion became the foundation of Watch Expert. In 2013, I received my Diamond Grader Certificate from HRD Antwerp, and in 2022, after ten years of professional experience, I became a member of the Royal Belgian Chamber of Judicial Experts (KGSO-CEJA).
To me, a fine timepiece is more than just a luxury object—it is art, craftsmanship, history, passion, human achievement passed from one generation to another and much more. It is a privilege to handle these objects with care and responsibility. I love my work. I enjoy meeting people, listening to their stories, learning, and sharing my passion, knowledge and experience.
I treat every client with respect, and I strive to build long-term relationships based on honesty and mutual respect. My approach is independent, transparent, and guided by expertise acquired through years of experience. Whether I am providing an opinion, an expert valuation, or assisting with the purchase or sale of a watch, I believe that fairness and integrity should always come first.
My goal is to offer fair valuations and honest advice in a private and secure environment where clients can feel comfortable and never pressured. Every transaction is handled with the utmost care and professionalism.
My office, located opposite the Flemish Opera and just a short walk from Antwerp Central Station, offers a discreet and secure setting where you are always welcome.
Many clients stop by for a coffee and a conversation about watches, financial markets, and life in general. Every person is valuable to me. I am grateful for the trust my clients place in me and for all the people I have had the pleasure of meeting over the years.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story. I look forward to welcoming you in person.
Best regards,
Khatchatour Mkrtoumian
