WatchProof

WatchProof is a mobile + web AI-assisted pre-purchase verification workflow for vintage and pre-owned watches. Buyers upload listing photos, movement shots (if available), serial/reference numbers, and seller details; the app flags red flags like mismatched hands/dials, over-polishing, incorrect fonts, swapped bezels, inconsistent lume aging, and suspicious paperwork. It generates a plain-English risk report, a fair-price range using recent comps, and a checklist of photos/questions to request before paying. For higher-value deals, WatchProof routes the case to vetted human watchmakers/authenticators for a paid second opinion, with clear turnaround times and liability disclaimers. It also stores a “deal dossier” you can share with escrow services or insurers. Brutal truth: this won’t magically “authenticate from photos,” but it can dramatically reduce obvious mistakes and scams and help buyers negotiate confidently.
