Private watch sale and valuation
Sell your F.P. Journe in Miami
Published . Last updated .
Passion Asset Advisory helps owners in Miami and South Florida sell F.P. Journe watches from USD 25,000. Request an NDA before sharing sensitive records. Complete details bring a written net estimate in USD within 1 business day. Send the reference, condition and set first; the agreed terms confirm the route, inspection and payment date.
- The service is a private review from Prague, not a Miami office or brand boutique.
- An NDA is available on request before sensitive disclosure.
- Inspection takes place in Geneva, London or Prague by prior arrangement.
- The 1-business-day estimate is not a promise of payment within that period.
F.P. Journe in Miami: the boutique and the secondary market
Passion Asset Advisory is an independent brokerage, separate from the manufacturer's Miami presence. F.P. Journe announced its Maison in downtown Miami on 15 March 2019. The brand's current directory lists Maison F.P. Journe Miami.
The official announcement describes a brand venue, not this brokerage's sale service. It does not establish a buyback offer for your watch. A secondary sale needs its own buyer, price evidence and written conditions.
Where to sell an F.P. Journe in Miami: routes compared
Passion Asset Advisory compares the proposed seller net, disclosure and completion conditions across routes. A local meeting does not by itself establish a stronger offer. Ask who buys, who holds the watch and which side an adviser represents.
- Dealer purchase: compare the final inspected offer and any separate deductions. A dealer's advertised resale price is not its purchase offer.
- Consignment: agree custody, insurance, discount authority and withdrawal terms. Payment depends on the contract and a completed sale.
- Auction: assess catalogue exposure, reserve, charges and unsold arrangements. Competitive bidding does not guarantee a sale.
- Private brokerage: agree the represented side, fees and permitted disclosure before outreach. A private approach does not guarantee a buyer.
Seller-side private placement uses progressive fees: 8% on the first USD 100,000, 6% on the next USD 400,000, then 4% on the remainder. A separately scoped seller-side funded-buyer service costs 5%. The terms identify which route applies before work starts.
Buyer-side acquisition and a disclosed principal purchase carry no seller advisory commission to the brokerage. A principal offer includes its margin. Read the F.P. Journe sale guide to distinguish these roles.
Auction in New York or a private sale from Miami
An auction comparison needs a matching watch and a clear price basis. Phillips' New York catalogue includes an Élégante ELHT in titanium with guarantee and box. That record does not identify every titanium treatment or establish the value of your example.
A published buyer-inclusive total is not the consignor's net. Compare the seller's agreed deductions and payment conditions before accepting a headline result. The guide to selling an F.P. Journe in New York explains the alternative.
A private approach can limit public exposure under agreed disclosure rules. Request an NDA before sharing sensitive ownership records or full serial numbers. Inspection and counterparty checks still require appropriate information; confidentiality does not mean no checks.
Shipping an F.P. Journe from Florida for inspection
Passion Asset Advisory starts with a remote review before asking a Florida owner to move a watch. An independent watchmaker inspects in Geneva, London or Prague by appointment. There is no claimed Miami inspection office.
Insured, tracked transport to inspection is arranged and paid by the brokerage on approved routes. Confirm the route, insured scope and custody record in writing before dispatch. No carrier or blanket cover is promised before those arrangements are agreed.
The terms identify required export and import documents and who files them. Ask how an unsold return would work before shipping. A transport arrangement is not a promise that every border movement is tax-free.
How a sale from Miami works with Passion Asset Advisory
Step 1: Send the reference, condition and set details
Identify the model and where it is held. List the papers, box and known service work.
Step 2: Send photos by email after the first reply
Use the initial form for text. Follow the private email instructions for photographs.
Step 3: Receive a written net estimate within 1 business day of complete details
Read the estimate's assumptions and evidence limits. Separate this response time from the eventual payment date.
Step 4: Agree the written terms
Confirm the represented side, fees and permitted disclosure. Agree inspection and transport before releasing the watch.
Step 5: Inspection by an independent watchmaker in Geneva, London or Prague
Confirm the appointment and custody arrangements. Check how inspection findings could affect the proposed transaction.
Step 6: Payment on the date in the written terms
Check the completion conditions before accepting the sale. The written terms state the payment currency and date.
Questions F.P. Journe owners in Miami ask
Where can I sell my F.P. Journe in Miami?
Passion Asset Advisory can review a Miami watch for a private transaction from USD 25,000. You can also compare dealer offers, consignment and auction proposals. Use the same reference, condition and set for each enquiry. Compare seller net, custody and payment conditions rather than choosing solely by the advertised price.
How private is the sale?
Passion Asset Advisory offers an NDA on request and agrees disclosure before sensitive information is shared. Nothing is published without your approval. Necessary inspection, ownership and counterparty checks still require appropriate records. Agree which photographs and documents may circulate, and to whom, instead of assuming that a private sale means absolute secrecy.
How fast can I receive payment?
The payment date depends on the agreed route and completion conditions. The written net estimate follows within 1 business day of complete details, but that is not a payment deadline. Inspection and transaction checks still need completion. Read the currency, payment date and outstanding conditions in the written terms before proceeding.
Sources, dates and limits
The manufacturer directory, dated Miami announcement and Phillips catalogue were reviewed on 12 October 2026. None establishes a current Miami retail quotation or an offer for your watch. Use F.P. Journe prices by model for dated evidence and its limits.
- F.P. Journe: boutique directory and 15 March 2019 announcement, checked 12 October 2026.
- Phillips New York ELHT catalogue: checked 12 October 2026; no price conversion or general Miami valuation inferred.
For another collection, read about selling an Audemars Piguet in Miami. The brokerage represents 1 side per transaction and has its office in Prague. Service coverage does not create a Florida branch.
Passion Asset Advisory is independent. It is not affiliated with, authorised by or endorsed by Audemars Piguet, F.P. Journe or any other brand named on this page.

What the reply covers
We review the reference and your priorities, request any missing evidence and explain suitable routes. The written estimate separates expected gross value, applicable fees and seller net. It states the condition and evidence assumptions. Requesting it is free and creates no obligation to sell.
This form starts a general seller review. For a specific buying request, use the F.P. Journe buyer-mandate submission form. The written terms explain whose interests the office represents.
