- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022To authenticate a vintage Cartier watch, remove the case back and you’ll see the brand name inscribed. “CARTIER” is located at the seven o’clock or ten o’clock markers and “SWISS MADE” under the six o’clock marker on genuine watches.

- 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024To tell if a TAG watch is real, first check the serial number, usually found on the back of the case. The Swiss luxury watchmaker offers a serial number warranty checker tool on its website that you can use to determine if the serial number is authentic. Next, examine the glass on the watch face. Genuine TAG Heuer watches feature highly scratch-resistant sapphire glass, so if you notice any fine scratches, the watch is likely a fake. You can also test the glass by placing a few drops of water on it. On an authentic TAG Heuer, you'd expect the water to form an evenly shaped pool due to the properties of the glass. If the water runs or smears, the watch could be a reproduction. Next, double-check that all logos match the official TAG Heuer branding. Finally, turn the crown. If it doesn't move smoothly or feels loose and unsecure, the watch could be a replica. When in doubt, a certified appraiser or other knowledgeable expert can inspect your timepiece to authenticate it. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of TAG Heuer watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 22, 2024To tell if your Geneva watch is real, first refer to its Certificate of Origin and Conformity. Modern certificates include an identification code, which can be entered on the Geneva Seal website to verify the watch's authenticity. Some modern certificates also include a QR code that can be scanned with a smartphone to confirm authenticity. If you have a watch without an identification code or don't have the certificate, first examine the watch's movement. Genuine Geneva watches are known for the exceptional quality of their movements. This is one of the most critical aspects to consider when evaluating a potential purchase for authenticity. So, inspect your watch's work carefully for craftsmanship and precision. Next, examine the overall quality of the watch. Poorly crafted parts are a telltale sign of a fake. Use a loupe or magnifying glass to examine each component's material, craftsmanship and distinctive details. You can also seek the expert opinion of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of Geneva watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023To tell if a Hermès watch is real, first look at the brand marking on the back.

Next, examine the stitching on the band. Uneven and loose stitching will usually indicate a fake. On 1stDibs, find a range of Hermès watches from some of the world's top sellers.
