About our stock
We are watch enthusiasts! We proudly believe that this differentiates us from some dealers and has defined how we purchase watches for stock.
Principally, we would never offer a watch for sale that we would not consider for our own collections. What does this mean?
-
Full set
We endeavor to offer only watches that are ‘full set’. This means they come with everything they would if purchased directly from the manufacturer. This will include manufacturer warranty card or papers, instruction manuals and the original box and tags. If a watch is offered without a tag, we will declare it as ‘box & papers’, as we do not consider a watch ‘full set’ if it is missing even something as small as a tag. We will never offer a watch without the box and papers, unless a client specifically asks us to source a particular watch and is happy to not have one or both of these.
-
Polishing
We will never offer a watch that we believe has been ‘over polished’. A watch that has been polished too many times will have been compromised in terms of case/bracelet shape and possibly even integrity. We would not consider a watch of this nature for our own collections, so would never offer one for sale.

Overall condition
When buying a pre-owned watch, condition is paramount. All our watches have had their condition checked rigorously and we pride ourselves on the accuracy of our listings, which detail the condition in depth. We are also happy to send a video of our watches should you wish.
Sourcing a watch
If you have a specific watch in mind but can’t find it on our website, we can look to source it for you. Contact us and tell us what you’ve got your eye on!
How we authenticate our stock
All our watches are purchased from reputable sources that we trust and are checked against The Watch Register, to verify they have not been registered as lost or stolen. A copy of this report is available upon request. Where watches have been purchased through ‘Certified’ schemes, these documents will be made available to clients.
