Passions Watch Exchange

Passions only trade with genuine items and will provide a 100% refund if proven otherwise. Unlike other online sellers we have not one but two physical stores in Singapore & Malaysia.

Passions has been in business since 1991 with thousands of satisfied clients from over 60 countries and also provide authentication services for law firms, insurance companies & government agencies.

All watches that are sold through us undergoes the 3 stages of Passions Quality Seal.

1) Items are inspected for authenticity

2) Background check (We interview our sellers and reject items with dubious history while working with the Police & manufacturers to filter them.)

3) Quality & functions check (Items are inspected for wear & tear, damaged or tired items are rejected outright. The selected ones will be refurbished if necessary with a final functions check that take a min. 48hrs before they are offered for sale)

Being vintage and pre-owned, there is NO WATERPROOF WARRANTY on all watches unless otherwise stated or requested. This implies especially to all snap-back cases, cases with correctors and chronographs.

Please bear in mind that all mechanical watches/clocks, especially vintages do not keep accurate time. A daily +/- 5 mins in timing is common for watches above 30years old. A present day Chronometer certified watch has an accuracy of +4 /-6 seconds a day. There is no perfect timing in mechanical and even quartz movements.
