Seeking Appraisal or Value Information?

The best resource for getting the value of your pocket watch is at the International Society for Appraisers (ISA). They have a "Find an Appraiser" tool (click here) where you can type in your state, or select the USA (or your country) and see a list of nearby appraisers.

The NAWCC also has a great resource for looking up serial numbers. This is particularly useful for finding out the year of your watch. Click here to check it out.
