Looking for an online appraisal service
Hello Folks,
I decided to insure a watch or two with Jewelers Mutual and they require an appraisal certificate to perfect the policy. A sales receipt isn't accepted if the watch is >$5k value. So I'm trying to find a good (and acceptable for insurance) online site that I can get an appraisal from. I see a lot on Google searches, but I wonder which if any are actually reputable. Has anyone ever gotten an online appraisal? I may just have to go to a local jeweler or something.. |

I have not heard of one as I think they would want to see the watch. My AD gave me one when I purchased the watch. Just stop in downtown San Fran to service center, i am sure they can do one for you.

I just insured my Daytona through Jewelers Mutual using my receipt from Mayors as I haven't received my appraisal from Mayors yet. Call them and speak to an agent. That's what I did.

I bought the watch on TRF so there isn't an AD receipt. I did find a place online, that will provide the necessary certification for $50. Seems legit. I might give them a try.

How are they appraising it without seeing the watch?

Its this company. http://www.nugentappraisal.com/
They asked for photos and copies of any other correspondance I have when I purchased it. Then if needed they will request other more detailed photos of certain areas of the watch. They said their certified appraisal report meets insurance company requirements... |

Seems legit.
Try it, all you can lose is 50 bucks. |
