I was looking for a memorable gift to celebrate my 50th birthday. Once I decided on a Patek Philippe timepiece, my research was extensive. I visited the Salon in London, number of Authorized Retailers (Scottsdale, AZ; Beverly Hills, CA; Costa Mesa, CA; Las Vegas, NV; Lucerne, Switzerland; Warsaw, Poland), several resellers/brokers (CA, MA) and tracked number of websites for months, but nothing came even close to the Customer Experience with John Reardon at Collectability! His passion for the industry, expertise, attention to my specific needs and a little bit of luck for having the watch I was interested in, resulted in one of the most memorable transactions of my life. John was responsive, patient and incredibly thoughtful. The buying process exceeded my expectations and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Just like Antoni Patek was the Watchmaker for Kings, John provides the Royal Treatment! Thank You John!!!

I love watches, but love even more the people I have met because of them. You, Elisa and the team at Collectability are absolutely amazing and it has been a true pleasure and an honor for me to go through this journey with all of you. Now, I have two amazing watches from you and I couldn’t feel happier. Not only with the watches, but the process of getting them and learning a lot from all of you.

John Reardon, owner of Collectability is one of the most straightforward and professional dealers one could find—and that is quite aside from the fact that he happens to be one of the most widely-recognized authorities on Patek Philippe watches in the world. The entire transaction was of the highest order, inspiring confidence from his first response (all of which were virtually immediate) to my initial inquiry. The shipment was handled expertly and the quality of packaging the best I have ever seen. I would rate Collectability and John Reardon at the top of my list, and cannot recommend any business or proprietor more highly.

The best of the best. Collectibility / John Reardon are at the top of the game and have my upmost respect and trust. My pocket watch was delivered from the USA to Europe within days. The packaging was innovative and does a fantastic job of keeping the treasure secure and safe for delivery. Thank you for making dreams come true!!

I have been working with John Reardon for a year and it’s been a fantastic experience. His integrity is incredibly important. He does not try to make the ‘quick sale’, but carefully considers which pieces make sense for me in the long term. We both have the same taste in pocket watches and I have been extremely pleased with the purchases I have made so far. I have purchased minute repeater pocket timepieces that are over 100 years old and my wife and I love listening to them every day. I feel so honored to own these and my other Patek watches. There is nothing I don’t like about Collectabilty. As soon as I turn my phone on in the morning, I go straight to the website to see what’s new. I consider John to be an icon in the world of vintage Patek. If I have a Patek watch question, he can answer it – it’s like going to visit a Maharaja!

There are two things that differentiate John from other experts in the field; 1) Honesty, John is as honest as the day is long, and I trust him with buying or selling my watches; 2) Knowledge, he has an encyclopedic understanding of Patek Philippe and is one of the best experts in the field. I have had nothing but a good and enjoyable experience working with Collectability. Even when there was a repair issue with a watch, John took care of it and bent over backwards to do the right thing. I have a lot of fun working with John and I’m sticking with him for my Patek watches.

Outstanding experience. John gave me information and assurances. The watch was delivered immediately and appeared even nicer than the pictures were able to convey (as John predicted). The packaging, additional straps, and quality of documents provided were all greatly appreciated. Will do business again as I expand my collecting into vintage era watches. Now with a lot more confidence.
