Most of what we sell, we go out and find. We work with dealers and private collectors across the country, so if you can give us the reference, dial and year, there’s a good chance we can track one down in about a day.
Reference number, dial, year, condition, budget. Be as specific or as open as you like.
We agree on the exact watch, condition and budget before we start looking.
We work our network and vet every candidate for authenticity and condition.
You see photos, hear exactly what condition it’s in, and get a firm price before anything ships.

Before You Ask
What to expect when you put us on the hunt for a specific watch.
The reference, year, condition, what you want included (full set or watch only) and your budget. Don’t know the reference? Send a photo and we’ll figure it out.
Usually about a day for current references. Rare and vintage pieces take longer, and you’ll get a realistic estimate up front.
Asking is free. To start the search, we take a $500 deposit, or $1,000 for vintage (made before 2000).
It’s credited in full toward any watch you buy from us, and it’s non-refundable only if you don’t buy. Terms are confirmed in writing first, and sourced watches are final sale.
Yes, and that’s where an independent dealer has the edge. Vintage takes a little longer because every piece gets checked for redials and replaced parts.
Often, yes, with no waitlist or purchase history required.

Stay Safe
Scammers sometimes pose as watch dealers to take deposits and wire payments. Big Sky Timepieces only communicates through the four channels below. If someone claims to represent us anywhere else, it isn’t us.
Not sure a message is really from us? Call (360) 852-2182 before you do anything else.
Every watch is inspected and photographed before it ships, and every one is guaranteed authentic for life.
