Our valuations are designed to meet insurer requirements and ensure your most valuable pieces are correctly protected against loss, theft, or damage.
An accurate insurance valuation is essential for peace of mind — and our experienced valuers ensure your items are assessed thoroughly and documented correctly.
Why an Insurance Valuation Matters
The value of jewellery and luxury watches can change over time due to fluctuations in material costs, brand demand, and market conditions. Without an up-to-date insurance valuation, you risk being under-insured or incorrectly covered.
Our insurance valuations ensure:

Confidence that your jewellery and watches are fully protected
We recommend reviewing insurance valuations every 2–3 years, or sooner following significant market changes or alterations to an item.

Insurance Valuation FAQs
What is an insurance valuation?
An insurance valuation is a formal document that states the current replacement cost of an item for insurance purposes. It ensures your jewellery or watch is adequately covered if it is lost, stolen, or damaged.
How is an insurance valuation different from a selling valuation?
An insurance valuation reflects the cost to replace an item at today’s retail market level. A selling or trade valuation reflects the price achievable if the item were sold. Insurance values are typically higher than resale values.
How often should jewellery and watches be revalued for insurance?
We recommend updating insurance valuations every 2–3 years, or sooner if there are significant changes in market value, precious metal prices, or if an item has been altered or serviced.
