Private Client Services
Tailored offerings for those building — and preserving — world-class collections.
Whether you're strategically seeking your next prized acquisition or carefully preparing a meaningful legacy, my advisory services deliver tailored, discreet guidance designed to align precisely with your collecting goals and values. Each offering provides confidential representation, meticulous sourcing, expert negotiation, and strategic management to protect and elevate your collection.
Annual Private Client Retainers
Expert Guidance. Transparent Terms. Immediate Value.
Your collection is more than an asset—it's your legacy. Protecting it demands thoughtful strategy, proven expertise, and unbiased guidance. I offer two distinct tiers of service, clearly structured and strategically priced to provide immediate and ongoing value.
Legacy Tier
One relationship. Unlimited value. Your personal watch advisor — independent, aligned, and always in your corner.
This is a full-spectrum advisory relationship for collectors who value privacy, proactivity, and a single point of trust across all major watch decisions. From sourcing to exits, collection audits to legacy planning, I handle it all—on your behalf, and on your terms.
Pricing: $5,000/month ($60,000/year) — billed annually or quarterly for ease.

Hands-on sourcing, vetting, and negotiation across your highest-priority acquisitions — with confidential execution at every stage.

Bespoke Acquisition Services
This isn’t just a watch search—it’s trusted representation in a transaction that matters.
The watch market runs on relationships, nuance, and insider knowledge—but it rarely puts the collector first. I created this offering to address a clear gap: independent, aligned acquisition guidance that places your goals at the center of every decision. I act as your advisor and advocate, not your broker. Every recommendation is grounded in market intelligence, not sales incentives. Every negotiation is conducted with your long-term objectives in mind. The result: better watches, better terms, and peace of mind you won’t find anywhere else.
Pricing: 8% success fee per transaction, with a $1,500 initial deposit (credited toward success fee).
