How do I sell a luxury watch in Dubai?
Dubai is the Middle East’s luxury-watch capital, with a fast-growing collector base and discreet private transactions. Selling to Passion Asset Advisory is a four-step private process in Dubai: you send the reference, condition and papers; we return a firm written offer within 48 hours; we authenticate in person in Dubai or by fully insured collection; and funds clear within seven days of inspection — no public listing, no auction wait, no seller’s commission taken from a hammer price.

Why sell to a direct buyer rather than a Dubai auction or marketplace?
An auction can set a public record, but it means months of waiting, a seller’s commission, an uncertain reserve and full publicity; a marketplace exposes both the watch and the seller. As a direct buyer we compete on net payout and discretion — a firm price in 48 hours, funds in seven days, complete confidentiality. Independent references have re-rated sharply (2025 F.P. Journe lots averaged 176% of high estimate), and offers reflect real, recent Dubai-relevant transactions.
Handover and payment in Dubai
You choose how the watch changes hands in Dubai: an in-person meeting with our specialist, or fully insured door-to-door collection. Payment is made only after inspection, and the piece is never listed publicly. The same terms apply worldwide — we buy from any city.
