Insuring your watch collection

Aston Lark are specialist insurance brokers and their Private Client Director Mark Daines comments:
“Whichever watch you choose to invest in, be sure to get a valuation certificate – this is evidence to support an insurance claim. It is also important to include the value of your investment under your home contents policy, as in the event of a claim you don’t want to realise you are underinsured.”
