- By appointment
- Same-day payment
A discreet, no-pressure alternative to the Manhattan showrooms. We arrange insured pickup at any FedEx or UPS in the tri-state area, authenticate in Maui, and wire the same day you accept. 20 years buying watches, no cost to see the number first.
The same eight brands we buy at the Maui office. Each links to a dedicated brand page with model-level guidance. NY sellers get the same offer we would make to a Maui walk-in, minus the walk-in.
Four steps from your home in the tri-state area to money in your bank account. Nothing complicated, and no walking around the Diamond District. The transcontinental leg adds a day to the timeline vs a Hawaii origin.
Send the intake with your reference, condition, and a few photos. We come back with an indicative number the same business day. There are hundreds of FedEx and UPS drop points across the tri-state area, so you can drop off wherever is closest.
Drop the watch at any FedEx or UPS in NY, NJ, or CT. Home pickup with the courier is available too. We handle the label, packaging guidance, and insurance for the full declared value. No cost to you.
The watch arrives at the office the next business day. We authenticate movement, case, dial, serial, and confirm a firm offer. Nothing changes from the indicative number without a written explanation.
From the moment you send the intake, we send the shipping label within one business day. Most sellers drop off the same afternoon. Transcontinental shipping takes 2 to 3 business days depending on origin (Manhattan is fastest, Upstate NY is slower).
The watch travels to Maui overnight, arrives at the office next business day, and clears authentication same or next day. Firm offer confirmed to you as soon as it clears.
Accept and get paid the same day by bank wire or USDT.
New York, plus the tri-state area within reasonable driving distance of NYC. Everyone gets the same service, just with different courier drop points.
Manhattan is the primary target: Upper East Side, Upper West Side, Midtown, Downtown, Tribeca, SoHo. Also Brooklyn (Park Slope, Williamsburg, Brooklyn Heights) and Queens (Astoria, Long Island City, Forest Hills). FedEx and UPS drop points are on nearly every block, so the courier stage is never the constraint.
Long Island (Nassau, Suffolk), Westchester, Hudson Valley, and lower Connecticut (Fairfield County). Northern New Jersey (Bergen, Hudson counties) is served on the same terms. Home pickup available for sellers further from the city, or drop at any nearby courier.
A firm offer in a couple of minutes. No obligation.
A New York seller has real, high-quality local options. This page is not for every NY seller. It is for the ones who value discretion over the last dollar. Here is the honest three-way.
Manhattan dealers see thousands of watches a year at auction and can pay well. But selling to them means walking around Diamond District, taking calls, shopping the piece. We do it once, discreetly. Fewer conversations, no shopping around.
They hold your watch for a week and price on assumptions. We authenticate under camera in Maui, in days. And we are a real dealer, not a marketplace.
We are the same buyer as the Maui Nehoa Time. That means a real dealer number, not a wholesale margin, and one buyer once. No back-and-forth.
Your watch comes back to New York, insured, at no cost. We do not hold it hostage for a haggle.
Trade your watch toward another from our collection and pay only the difference. Works from NY, same ship-in style as an outright sale.
For a higher final number, consign your watch and let us sell it to the right buyer. Same insured ship-in from NY. You are paid when it sells, same day.
Prefer to sell face to face? Visit our office in a business office in downtown Maui. We meet by appointment only, so every visit is private and secure. Not on the island? Ship your watch to us fully insured and we will handle the rest.

Manhattan dealers can pay well, especially on hot references, because they see thousands of watches a year at auction. But selling to them means walking around Diamond District, taking calls, and shopping the piece against other buyers. Our service model is the opposite: one buyer, one number, one transaction, done discreetly. For sellers who value that trade-off, this works. For sellers hunting the last dollar, a NY dealer may be the better route.
After we agree an indicative number, we send a prepaid, insured shipping label and packaging guidance. Drop at any FedEx or UPS in NY, NJ, or CT, or arrange a home pickup with the courier. No cost to you either way.
Standard carrier insurance covers up to $50,000. For higher-value pieces we add supplemental insurance so the whole value is covered end to end. Higher-value NY pieces are common, so discuss the number and coverage together before the label is sent.
Yes. You always own the watch until you accept the firm offer. If the number does not work, we ship it back to New York, insured, at no cost to you.
Rarely. For higher-value pieces where a seller strongly prefers in-person, we can sometimes arrange it. Ask, and we will tell you what is possible.
Usually four to five business days from the moment you send the intake to money in your bank account. Two to three of those days is the transcontinental shipping leg.
It takes only a few minutes to submit your consignment, with no obligation to proceed.
