Pre-Visit Appraisal Preparation
Collateral Loan & Direct Sale Estimate Preparation — Gold, Diamonds & Swiss Watches
How to prepare 10K–24K gold jewelry, GIA-graded diamonds, and luxury watches (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Cartier, Omega) before visiting a licensed New York pawnbroker for a collateral loan or outright sale estimate.
1. Regulated Collateral Pawn Loans (NY GBL Article 5)
Under New York General Business Law Article 5 (§ 46) and NYC DCWP licensing, collateral pawn loans are capped at 4% maximum monthly interest over a standard 4-month loan term. Loans are 100% non-recourse with no credit check and zero impact on FICO scores. Accepted collateral includes 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, and 24K gold jewelry, GIA-graded and non-certified diamonds, luxury Swiss watches (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Cartier, Omega), and select electronics.
2. Direct Gold, Diamond & Luxury Watch Buying
For clients who prefer an immediate outright sale instead of a collateral loan, every location performs non-destructive XRF fluorescence purity testing and calibrated digital weighing in plain view. Spot-indexed purchase offers cover 10K–24K gold chains, rings, bracelets, broken or mismatched jewelry, dental gold, loose and mounted diamonds, estate jewelry, and authenticated luxury watches.
