Full set vs condition

Box and papers

True Value Lies in Quality. We recognize the emotional appeal of a complete original set—outer box, presentation case, punched papers, booklets, and accessories. However, when selecting a timepiece, condition remains paramount. Original papers are often lost to time, but true rarity is found in exceptional preservation. Buy the condition, not the box or papers. For selected brands such as Audemars Piguet, Patek Philippe, and Longines, official extract from the archives may be obtained to confirm authenticity and provenance. After all, time does not measured on a piece of paper.
