The Hermès Birkin was born from a chance meeting in 1984, when actress and singer Jane Birkin sat beside Hermès chief executive Jean-Louis Dumas on a flight from Paris to London. A young mother, she wished for a bag that was both practical and chic, and Dumas invited her to sketch it. The result became the most coveted handbag in the world. Its roomy trapezoid shape, rolled top handles, signature lock and clochette, and flap secured by a turn-lock strap are instantly recognizable. Offered in sizes from 25 to 40 and in leathers such as Togo, Epsom, Clemence and Swift, each Birkin is a lasting emblem of Hermès craftsmanship. It is not simply a handbag but an heirloom, made to be treasured for generations.

Each handbag and accessory is examined by our specialists, then independently verified by a third-party authenticator. Every hand bag is presented with its own Certificate of Authenticity.

Our timepieces are authenticated by our in-house experts and evaluated again during a complete service. We only offer watches with a clear and documented ownership history, so you can acquire each piece with full confidence in its provenance.

Every Rolex timepiece carries the manufacturer’s five-year international guarantee, beginning from its date of production. This guarantee accompanies the watch itself rather than its owner, and passes with it from one custodian to the next. The original warranty card is required to make use of it.

For pre-owned Rolex and Cartier timepieces beyond their original five-year guarantee, we extend our own one-year warranty. It covers every aspect of the watch’s condition and performance, with the sole exception of water damage.
