Antique Clocks
Buying & Appraisal

We meticulously examine your antique clocks, which carry the spirit of time and inspire admiration with their fine mechanical craftsmanship, based on their brand, period, and working condition, and purchase them for cash at their true value.

Which Types of Clocks Do We Buy?

Old clocks, a combination of mechanical mastery and fine art, are of great importance to collectors. The main types of clocks we purchase at Eskici Istanbul are:

• Silver, gold-plated, niello, or enameled antique pocket watches.
• Wooden case antique wall clocks, pendulum clocks, and cuckoo clocks.
• Table and mantelpiece mechanical clocks with marble, bronze, or wooden cases.
• Vintage mechanical and automatic wristwatches from brands like Zenith, Omega, Longines, Nacar, and Hislon.

How is an Antique Clock Appraised?

During the appraisal process of clocks, not only the exterior appearance but also the condition of the mechanism (movement) is examined. The working condition of the clock, the originality of its parts, the intactness of its dial (enamel), and the case hallmarks are the most important factors determining the price. However, your non-working clocks may also have antique value for repair or spare parts; therefore, be sure to consult our expert team instead of throwing them away or selling them cheaply.

"These elegant machines that measure time do not only carry the past; they also bring the fine craftsmanship of their master and the art of their period to the present day."
