trendy jewellery...

Francine Joaillerie specializes in the appraisal, acquisition and sale of high-end watches.

A watch today is much more than a timepiece, it is above all an adornment, a jewel that meets criteria of both aesthetics and high technicality for the mechanisms.

If the watch is most often a “pleasure investment”, it is also a “marker” of social status, of a fashion, of a trend.

For these reasons, the second-hand market is a sector in constant development, with its “flagship” products: Rolex, Audemars Piguet, Jaeger Lecoultre, Patek Philippe, Omega, IWC, Breguet, etc.…

Some of these models are produced in limited series and are therefore rare and highly sought after by customers who prefer to buy a Rolex, for example, with an unlimited lifespan, rather than a state-of-the-art watch that will be outdated tomorrow.
Unfortunately, fakes and counterfeits circulate and it is therefore a market where you have to surround yourself with multiple precautions.
In addition to her website, Francine has a “storefront” with her Saint-Tropez boutique and thus offers the possibility of human contact thanks to her professionalism and expertise, your transactions will be highly secure.
