Bidder Reviews for Sphere Auctions LLC (98)

Simple online purchase from this auction went well

Great transaction with Sphere Auction

Second hand was detached. Movement was sloppy in case because case was worn from screws. Movement was barely running. Kept hanging up. Description stated it was running and keeping time. Also stated it was near mint overall with minimal wear. Required extensive work to get to the level at which it was described.

Simple online purchase from this auction went well.

good

When I received my item, it was missing a stone that was there when the original photo was taken. I contacted Sphere regarding this and as of today, still haven’t heard anything back from them.

An unusual cuff looks even better in real life super happy with purchase

This auction house is so easy to pay and quick on the turnaround. No overinflated shipping prices or waiting weeks to get your items.

This was a great auction; the staff were incredible and the shipping was exceptionally fast.

No complaints, item shipped promptly, nice item as described.

The watch was listed as "Watch is running at time of listing." Well, it is humming.. the 2nd hand moves. The hour/minute hands don't. An $80 bid results in > $130 out of my pocket by the time the auction fee, shipping, misc fees Live likes to add on, and tax are all added in. That's too much to pay for a watch that to be of any value near what was paid-will require parts and an expensive service, costing much more than the watch would ever fetch if sold. I asked the auctioneer about this-they said their watchmaker might have put the wrong battery in. NO-the movement has the not uncommon clutch failure, known in the Accutron world on the 218 movements. The watchmaker obviously didn't actually check the watch out besides seeing the second hand moving. It will make me much more hesitant about bidding on any of Sphere's auctions in the future (and this isn't the first item I've bought from them.) Looking over my records I see more than 30 watches I've bought from them.

TRIPLE AAA FAST SHIPPING EXACTLY WHAT WAS DESCRIBED CAME TO ME. THNAK YOU!

Highly recommended auction house. Reliable, fast, precise. Absolutely professional and as always a pleasure to make business with.

Super fast shipping but several of my pieces were not as described. Not real sterling. So sorry for everyone involved for not even sticking a magnet to them to see if they were non-ferrous. Sorry about this but I felt it important to say.

Sphere Auction, LLC claimed in the item description of a watch that I purchased (Sicura) that the watch started and stopped but did need service. That is factually not true. The watch mechanism is seized (crown is seized which does not allow watch to be wound). I brought the watch immediately to a watchmaker that I have worked with for many years. He confirmed that the watch was seized which was the result of the watch not being wound for MANY YEARS and will need service well beyond what would be needed if the watch did in fact start and stop, which it does not. There is no way that this watched started and stopped while in their possession. This auction house simply did not provide factual information. I have a vacation home in WI. Because when you call they don't answer their phone (and VM is full) I will go to the address indicated and have a direct 1:1 conversation about this matter.

Both pieces exactly as they said. Payment was easy. I have an experience of not being gouged by this auction house. And everything went very smoothly.

All went fine.

I have purchased from Sphere Auctions several times. Each experience was better than expected. Items are described correctly, delivered quickly, and properly packed. I look forward to their next auction.

It's rare that I buy this many watches from a single vendor at the same time, but in this case, I'm quite happy with the items I won. ALL of them are now running (new batteries mostly). They are all in great condition and exceeded my expectations. The shipping and in particularly the packing were done in an exceptional manner. The watches arrived quickly, signed delivery, and the packaging was nothing short of outstanding! I've ouyt this auction house on my list of watched houses.. I hope to buy again from them.

Stay away from them.

I just received an item I purchased from Sphere Auctions and am delighted with it! Sphere is an honest agent, quick to answer questions, very quick to ship and keep customer updated throughout the entire process. 5 stars across the board! I highly recommend them to other potential buyers and sincerely look forward to using them again, hopefully soon!

Shipping way over priced. One arrived with the Hands unattached and not working, no doubt due to carrier. I received wrong items on another bid. Would like to know how I can list items on your site.

I purchased 12 watches in this auction. I have purchased from Sphere before and felt confident to bid due to the clear and honest descriptions and photos. I recieved exactly what I expected and had a very good buying experience. I'm looking forward to their next auction.

Item as described. Seller communicated along the way with in-house shipping. Great experience!

I received my items today and LOVE all of them 🥰 as described but even better when you receive them. I also love to purchase items and know that the shipping is very affordable 👍 🏼 👍 🏼

All items as described or better. Smooth experience and timely shipping.

Thank you

Thank you

Excellent transaction

The auction was labeled vintage silver and najavo... no. Once I received it much was new, there was tibetan and plain fake. Really disappointing and overpaid. Lesson learned.: (

Won 4 watches at a great price. Excellent auction house
