Important Conditions of Sale for Watches Please note: As many of the timepieces are old, or their history is unknown, Dunbar Sloane offers no guarantee as to mechanical condition or condition of seals etc. A timepiece described as ‘fine’ or ‘as new’ is an opinion as to appearance only. All watches are sold as viewed. It shall be assumed that all buyers have inspected the lots and that they are happy with them in all respects. Watches cannot be returned on the grounds that repairs or service have been carried out, or parts (including straps or bracelets) have been supplied, by anyone other than the named maker. Notwithstanding the foregoing condition, named wristwatches are sold on the basis that the movement (or movement and case where both would normally have been manufactured by the named maker) were manufactured by the named maker. It is recommended that the buyers have watches serviced promptly to ensure that damage does not arise from faulty seals or any other aspect of mechanical condition.

or clarity mounted and the descriptions given in the catalogue or report are therefore based on estimates which are limited in accuracy.

Gemmologist’s report available. FINE JEWELLERY Est. $2000–3000 Independent Gemmological Reports and Valuations See illustration p.17 Valuations are made available to customers for two primary purposes. Firstly to provide an independent opinion as to the quality of the stones and metals comprising the piece, and Secondly so that buyers can, if they wish, obtain suitable Insurance cover immediately upon purchase and prior to delivery. A valuation for insurance purposes represents a calculated replacement cost allowing for maximum retail margins, such that an Insurer can assess the outer limit of their exposure to risk. It does not represent actual new retail replacement as it makes no provision for competitive trade practice, or for discounts obtained by individual bargaining. As fashion, desirability and current market forces all have variable impact on second hand or Auction value, there is no direct formula for estimation of such value by interpolation from Insurable value. As currency exchange rate and spot metal prices have a marked effect on jewellery valuations, buyers should note the date and prevailing economic factors at the time that the valuation was produced. Once all the prevailing parameters have been established, it is possible for an experienced person to interpolate a rough estimate of the current cost of manufacture from past insurable value, but again that exercise will give no indication of actual market forces. Buyers should also note the stated purpose of the valuation (insurance, retail market, cash value, estate division etc). All valuations remain opinions and are not matters of fact. Whilst Dunbar Sloane staff will assist buyers to understand the methodology and technical details of gemmological reports and valuations, buyers must make their own assessment of an item's value before bidding. Dunbar Sloane, its consultants and employees make no representation or warranty regarding any outside opinion, valuation or certificate of any item on offer. Please note: Where gemmological reports are available these should be read together with the catalogue description. Should there be, through error, omission, or introduction of better evidence, any significant difference between the catalogued description and that provided in the gemmologist's report, it shall be assumed that the buyer has inspected the report and is buying in acceptance of it. Unless otherwise stated, all stones have been assessed for weight, colour

buyers guide If you have not bought from Dunbar Sloane before, please read the following notes. They are set out in the order you are likely to come across them in the process of buying at auction. Staff will be pleased to answer any questions you may have.
Buyers Premium The buyer shall pay to Dunbar Sloane Ltd a premium of 15% of the hammer price plus GST on the premium only – effectively adding 17.25% to the hammer price.
BEFORE THE AUCTION CONDITIONS OF BUSINESS The terms and conditions under which the buyer acts at a sale are detailed at the back of this catalogue. We recommend that you read and understand these conditions of business before registering to bid at an auction. This sale is subject to the conditions of business printed in this catalogue and to the reserves.
AFTER THE AUCTION
Viewing All lots are available for inspection prior to the sale. Although staff will endeavour to answer your enquiries, and give advice, the final decision to bid, is at your discretion and liability. Pre-Sale Estimates The estimated prices printed below the catalogue descriptions are in New Zealand dollars and are the approximate prices expected to be realised, excluding buyers premium. They are not definitive, they are prepared well in advance of the sale and they are subject to revision. Condition reports Dunbar Sloane Ltd will provide a verbal condition report if you would like an opinion on any particular lot prior to purchasing. All goods are sold “as is” and it is up to the buyer to satisfy themselves as to the condition of an item before the auction. THE AUCTION Registration To bid at the auction you will need to register for a bidding number at the front desk either during the viewing or prior to the auction. Buying at the Auction Please bid clearly and promptly using your bidding number. When you successfully purchase a lot the auctioneer will ask you for your number, and this will show on your invoice. Approximate Selling Rate Auctions are generally conducted at the rate of about 100 lots per hour. However, this can vary. Absentee Bidding If you are unable to attend the auction, Dunbar Sloane Ltd can bid on your behalf according to your written instructions. This is a free service for intended buyers. Please complete clearly the form at the back of this catalogue and submit it to Dunbar Sloane Ltd at least 24 hours before the sale to ensure it is safely received. Lots will be purchased for you as cheaply as possible, subject to other bids in the room and to reserves. Telephone Bidding If you are unable to attend the auction, you can elect to bid by telephone (subject to availability). Telephone bidding must be arranged with Dunbar Sloane Ltd at least 24 hours prior to the sale and is strictly subject to a minimum lot estimate of $1000 or greater. Please note that the auctioneer determines the increments in bidding, not the telephone bidder.
Payment Payment for purchase is due in New Zealand dollars within 48 hours from the date of sale by cash, cheque or eftpos. Alternatively payment can be made by telegraphic transfer direct to our bank: (Please add $25NZ to cover New Zealand bank charges) ANZ Credit 06 0501 0524945 00 Swift Code ANZBNZ22 Payee Dunbar Sloane Ltd Please include details of sale date and lot numbers with all payments.
Collection of Purchases Property purchased can be collected as soon as full payment has been received. Any items not collected within seven days of the auction may be subject to a storage and insurance fee. Items must be paid for straight away and a second account for courier/ freight charges will follow approximately 6 days later when we have had time to confirm courier/NZ Post charges. National & International Packaging and Transportation We prefer the buyer to pack and arrange transport. Removal firms can make crates, wrap your goods and have them delivered to you. 1. Pack & Send, email: wellingtoncity@packsend.co.nz. Quote lot number, correct auction house (Dunbar Sloane Auckland or Wellington) and date of the auction. 2. It is best to arrange your own freight insurance. It is cheaper with your household insurance company. 3. Couriers do not pack and require payment before they pick up the goods. If you want Dunbar Sloane Ltd to pack and pay for couriers we charge accordingly. This is to be paid before the goods leave our premises. We pack with care, however we take no responsibility for damage once your goods leave our premises. It is up to the buyer to arrange insurance to cover any damage or loss in transit. 4. New Zealand Post Office If you require us to send your items by post we will charge for packing, postage and incidentals. The goods need to be paid for immediately following the auction and we will then quote you for this service. We have to take your items to NZ Post by car, stand in queues and fill in a custom declaration.This all takes considerable time for which we charge NZ $50.
