How Much is Your Ressence Worth?
While Ressence is a relatively new brand, founded in 2010, the brand has grown in popularity among collectors and enthusiasts alike. Even pre-owned Ressence watches hold their value well thanks to their unique designs, and impressive engineering.
Ressence Type 1 models with minimalist dials, for example, can sell between $16,000 and $20,000 while Ressence Type 3 models with more innovations can command higher prices, usually from $25,000 to $35,000.
To find out the accurate value of your Ressence timepiece, there are multiple factors to consider and these include:
- Model and Rarity: Certain Ressence models are more valuable due to limited production or unique features. Take for example the Type 3 models with oil-filled dials and the Type 5 models, which are dive watches with innovative complications. The rarer your watch, the more sought-after it is and the higher the value you can demand.
- Condition: Watches in pristine condition are often more attractive to buyers. They are willing to pay more for watches in their original finishes with minimal scratches and little to no issues. Expect higher prices if your watch's movements are fully functional but remember that minor imperfections can affect the overall value of your Ressence model.
- Original Packaging and Documentation: If you have the original box and documents, such as the certificate of authenticity or purchase receipt, they add to the resale value of your Ressence watch. These documents do not only verify authenticity but also appeal to collectors who prefer complete sets.
- Market Demand: Like other luxury items, your watch's value can be influenced by current market trends and demand. This is why timing when to sell your Ressence watch during high demand is imperative if you want to maximize your returns.
- Regular Maintenance: One way to maximize the value of your Ressence watch is to follow the recommended maintenance schedule. Buyers often seek watches that won’t require immediate repairs and regular servicing will ensure your watch stays in its flawless, fully functional condition. Show proof of regular maintenance to command higher prices for your luxury timepiece.
How To Get The Best Price For Your Ressence Watches
Despite being relatively new in the luxury watch market, Ressence models are highly valued for their distinctive designs and innovative engineering. But there are still some strategic steps you can take to ensure you'll get the best price for your Ressence watch.
- Proper care: You'll want to preserve your watch's original condition. This means proper care and regular maintenance, which includes polishing, lubricating, and avoiding extreme pressures. Having the original packaging and the complete documentation including warranty cards, authenticity certificates, and related papers can generally attract higher offers.
- Get a Professional Appraisal: If you want to ensure a fair market value for your watch, it is highly recommended to get a professional appraisal. Authorized retailers like Exquisite Timepieces offer no-obligation, free appraisals. We have a team of watch specialists evaluating every timepiece based on key factors like model, condition, and current demand to guarantee accuracy.
- Service Only When Needed: A recent watch service can improve the resale value, but it is not always recommended. Minor wear might not require a costly service, especially since certain collectors prefer to service or overhaul the watch themselves.
- Research Market Demand: Ressence watches are known for their unique design and limited production, which makes them more attractive to avid collectors. Some models are also more desirable depending on current market demand. Before selling, research the market and compare current prices so you can price your specific Ressence model accurately.
- Consider Different Selling Options: Compare offers from multiple sources, including online marketplaces, auction sites, and reputable dealers like Exquisite Timepieces. Each platform has its pros and cons. It's best to take your time to weigh your options so you can select the one that offers the best price and fast payments.
Should I Service my Ressence Watch before Selling it?
Servicing your Ressence watch before selling can boost its appeal but it's generally not recommended for several reasons.
While most buyers may be willing to pay more for a well-maintained watch, you'll also want to allow potential buyers the prerogative to maintain or overhaul the watch as they see fit. This is especially true if your watch is working impeccably with no notable issues.
You also have to consider the cost of luxury watch servicing before selling. Major repairs can be expensive, consequently lowering your take-home pay. Plus, some collectors prefer luxury watches in their original condition, so extensive servicing isn’t always necessary.
In cases when the watch isn't working at all, this is where you can opt for a quick consultation with Exquisite Timepieces. We can confirm if a pre-sale service is likely to enhance your watch’s value.
About Ressence Watches
Ressence is a relatively new brand, founded in 2010 by Belgian industrial designer Benoît Mintiens. With his expertise, he redefined traditional watchmaking with modern innovations and minimalist but powerful designs.
Unlike traditional luxury watches, Ressence models do not use hands and crowns but instead feature a unique mechanism known as the Ressence Orbital Convex System (ROCS). This groundbreaking invention uses discs to display hours, minutes, and seconds, creating a seamless, dynamic effect that sets it apart from other luxury brands.
Ressence watchers stand out even more with unique features such as the oil-filled dials in Type 3 and Type 5 models, crownless designs, and distinctive looks that are modern and fashion-forward.
In terms of major achievements, the brand has been recognized for its efforts to push watchmaking boundaries to the next level. The introduction of the Ressence Type 3, for example, has earned the brand the prestigious Horological Revelation prize at the 2013 Grand Prix in Genève. In 2018, Ressence unveiled another innovation, the e-Crown technology as seen on the Type 2 models.
Collectors and enthusiasts appreciate Ressence for its minimalism and modern, futuristic appeal. Plus, the brand only uses the finest materials including titanium cases and sapphire crystals. Anyone who values cutting-edge technology and avant-garde aesthetics will want to own a Ressence watch.
