A practical output

See what a useful watch brief looks like.

A decision is easier to assess when the facts, missing evidence and next actions are separate. Maison Montres organises these points in a written brief, with the depth and format set for your request.

For advisers

Watch expertise within your advisory team.

For a family office, the task often starts with better records: what is owned, which documents exist and what needs attention. Maison Montres can prepare watch-specific records and decision briefs for the people already advising the family.

Discuss watch support for family offices within your existing reporting and decision process.

Start with the decision, then define the work.

  1. Tell us your goal.

    Share a short outline of the watch or collection and the decision ahead.

  2. Agree the brief.

    Confirm the deliverables, responsible people, timing assumptions and fees.

  3. Review the findings.

    Use the agreed output to decide the next step. Further specialist work is identified separately.

Can Maison Montres help with one watch?

Yes. A request can concern one acquisition, a watch already found, a market valuation or a proposed sale. Start with the decision you need to make.

Can I start without a complete collection record?

Yes. Explain what records you have and what is missing. A collection review can begin by defining the information needed for a useful working register.

What happens after I enquire?

Maison Montres reviews the request and clarifies whether it can take on the work. Paid work starts only after the scope and commercial terms are agreed.

A private conversation

Tell us what you are considering.

A short description is enough to start. Detailed records can follow once the scope and sharing method are clear.
