I take time for your watch.

My name is Frederic Streminski. I deal in vintage and pre-owned watches in Frankfurt, and I specialise in finding out what is original on a watch – and therefore what it is worth.

Why Erbschaftskontor?

As a dealer, I keep hearing the same story: a watch is inherited, nobody knows what it is worth, and in the end it is sold for a fraction – or stays in a drawer for years because nobody knows whom to ask. Erbschaftskontor is the place to get an honest answer without any commitment.

How I work

  • I check every watch myself, with a loupe, a timing machine and knowledge of references, serial numbers and original parts.
  • I compare with prices actually achieved, not with asking prices.
  • I explain how I arrive at a value, and I tell you openly that I also buy watches.
  • I am not a gold buyer. For gold and jewellery from an estate I am still happy to advise you and work with specialists from the trade.

My shop fredswatches.com sells checked vintage watches to collectors worldwide. On Chrono24, buyers rate me 4.9 out of 5 in 110 reviews.
