Buying a Watch

How do I purchase a watch from Watch Pharaohs?

Purchasing from us is a personal and straightforward process. Browse our collection and when you find a timepiece that interests you, reach out to us via Instagram DM or email. Our team will provide you with all the details, answer any questions, and guide you through the purchase at your own pace.

How does pricing work?

Given the exclusive nature of our collection, prices are available on request. Each timepiece is individually assessed and priced according to its brand, model, condition, and current market value. Contact us for a prompt and transparent quote on any watch that catches your eye.

How do I know a watch is authentic?

Authenticity is at the heart of everything we do. Every watch in our collection is thoroughly verified by our experts before it is offered for sale. We stand behind the integrity of each timepiece we sell. Should you have any specific concerns, we are happy to provide full details of our verification process.

Do watches come with documentation?

We always disclose the full documentation status of each watch upfront. Many of the timepieces in our collection come with original box and papers, while others are offered without. All relevant details are communicated clearly before any purchase is made — no surprises.

Payment & Delivery

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept bank transfer (IBAN) and other secure payment methods, which will be confirmed at the time of purchase. All transactions are handled with full transparency and professionalism.

Do you offer shipping or is pickup possible?

We offer both options. Watches can be shipped securely and fully insured to your address, or you are welcome to arrange a personal handover. We will discuss the most suitable option for you at the time of purchase. Please contact us for further details.

International Export & Middle East Buyers

Do you ship to Egypt and the Middle East?

Yes — we regularly export to Egypt, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and other destinations across the Middle East. We handle the full export process on your behalf, including all required customs documentation, so your watch arrives correctly and legally.

How does VAT work on international exports?

Watches exported outside the European Union qualify for 0% VAT under Dutch export regulations. This means you pay no Dutch VAT on your purchase — a significant saving compared to buying locally. We provide all necessary export documentation to support this.

What documentation do I receive with an export purchase?

You receive a full purchase invoice, proof of payment, and the official export documentation required by Dutch customs. Every transaction is handled with complete transparency and a full paper trail — no shortcuts.

Is Watch Pharaohs a verified dealer I can trust for an international purchase?

Yes. Watch Pharaohs is a verified Mondani Web Trusted Dealer — an internationally recognised accreditation in the pre-owned luxury watch industry. We have an established track record of exporting to buyers across Egypt and the Middle East.
