Common questions
- What is Patinabook?
- Patinabook is a private record-keeping app for vintage watch collectors. It identifies a watch from a photo using AI, estimates its current market value from live sold listings, and keeps a permanent log of every service, part replacement, and condition change.
- How does the AI identification work?
- You upload up to three photos. The AI reads the dial, case, and bezel details, then verifies the exact reference number, production era, and case size against live web sources such as brand archives and auction catalogs before filling in the watch profile for your review.
- How is the market value estimated?
- The valuation is a USD range built from current Chrono24 listings, recent eBay sold prices, and auction results for the exact reference, adjusted for the condition visible in your photos. You can re-run the valuation anytime and track the value on a chart.
- Is my collection private?
- Yes. Your collection is private by default. If you choose to share a single watch, the public page shows photos and service history while your serial number, purchase price, and personal notes always stay hidden.
- Why does service history matter when selling a vintage watch?
- Documented service history is proof of care. A vintage watch with dated service records, named watchmakers, and listed parts typically sells faster and for more money, because the buyer is not pricing in unknown maintenance risk.
- What does Patinabook cost?
- Free for up to 3 watches with AI identification and full record keeping. Pro is $14 per month or $129 per year and adds unlimited watches, PDF exports for insurance or sale, and the collection-wide insurance report.
