Buying a Patek Philippe in Tbilisi
Patek Philippe is bought slowly. Most clients who come to Merab Kostava Street asking about a Nautilus or a perpetual calendar have been reading about the reference for a year or more, and they arrive with the right questions: is it genuine, is the movement correct for the case, has the dial been refinished, and is there an extract from the archives.
We answer those before you ask. Every Patek Philippe that reaches our display has been through our workshop first — movement inspected against the reference, case and lugs examined for refinishing, hallmarks and case numbers checked, and accuracy measured on a timing machine.
What we check before a piece goes on display
- The movement — correct calibre for the reference, running within tolerance
- Case and hallmarks — metal purity marks and case numbers consistent with the reference
- The dial and hands — original, or clearly identified if not
- Case and lugs — sharpness of the edges, evidence of heavy polishing
- Bracelet or strap — correct fittings, matching finish, clasp condition
- Papers and provenance — certificate of origin and service history where available
Selling or trading a Patek Philippe
We purchase Patek Philippe watches outright and accept them in trade against pieces in our collection. Valuation is carried out on site and costs nothing, whether or not you decide to proceed. If you accept our offer, payment is settled immediately.
Bring the certificate of origin and box if you have them — on Patek they affect value more than on almost any other house. If you do not have them, that is not an obstacle, but say so up front and we will factor it into the valuation openly.
Patek Philippe service and repair
Our workshop looks after the pieces we sell and the pieces you already own: diagnostics, accuracy regulation, water resistance testing, polishing and crystal replacement. Every piece receives a free diagnostic first, and a fixed price before any work begins.
Read more about what a service involves on our watch service page, or see our journal guide to reading a watch movement if you would like to understand what is inside your watch before bringing it in.
Patek Philippe is one of several houses we hold. See the full range of luxury watch brands at Dauri Club.
