A watch is only as considered as the hands it has passed through. Every piece we offer arrives with its history intact.

The houses

The great houses, pre-owned.

Pieces from the maisons we know best, found one at a time and checked in the salon before any of them is offered. We would rather wait for the right example than list the first one.

Lumière is independent, and not an authorised dealer for any house shown.

Authentication & Trust

What we check before a watch goes in the window.

We are a small reseller, so the checks are the ones we can do properly ourselves. None of it is a laboratory certificate and we don’t pretend otherwise — it is the inspection we would want done before buying a watch ourselves.

  1. Can stop a piece

    I. Case and serial check

    Case backReferencePapers=agreeContinuesdisagreeStops here
    Three records of one number. If they don’t agree, the watch goes no further.

    We open the case back, read the serial and reference, and check they match the model and the paperwork that came with it.

  2. Written into the listing

    II. Timekeeping and function

    woundnotedon the wrist, a few daysCrownDateBraceleteach worked by hand
    Days on the wrist, not minutes on a bench — and how it ran is written down.

    Every watch is wound and worn for a few days. We note how it runs, and whether the crown, date and bracelet work as they should.

    III. Honest condition notes

    Every mark found on the watch is numbered, photographed and listed.

    Scratches, replaced parts and service history are listed and photographed. What you read in the listing is what arrives.

    IV. Papers and provenance

    PRESENTLISTING SAYSBoxIncludedWarranty cardIncludedService receiptsStated as absentphotographed beside itmissing
    Photographed if it is there. Said plainly if it is not.

    Box, warranty card, service receipts — we record what came with a watch and photograph it beside the piece. Where there are no papers, the listing says so.
