As leading experts in the field, we are currently working with global businesses and industry-leading sales platforms to deliver watch education and detailed resources specifically for the authentication and sale of pre-owned watches. Counterfeit watches cost businesses millions of pounds a year as they leak into the secondary market. The Watch Scholar helps organisations protect themselves from inadvertently buying high quality fake watches through our globally recognised authentication services and training. The Watch Scholar provides Watch authentication services to Trading Standards, Police and IP Enforcement agencies, providing detailed reports on the status of watches found. The Watch Scholar works with Insurers to ensure watches are covered at the correct value and that counterfeit watches are not substituted for the real thing at the point of inspection. Training is provided to Claims teams and Loss Adjusters to ensure that they are aware of the pitfalls inherent in the luxury watch market, and therefore do not over or under insure, or fall victim to insurance fraud. On a lighter note, Adrian Hailwood at The Watch Scholar is a noted Public / Keynote speaker providing entertaining and engaging presentations based on his 30+ years within the Luxury Watch and Jewellery Industry.
