Watches

New watches, pre-loved premium watches, and the care between them.

We stock a small range of new watches and pre-loved premium watches. Ask us what is in at the moment — the selection changes, and the interesting pieces are best seen on the wrist.

Pre-loved premium watches

Ask us about pre-loved premium watches. Buying one that has already been worn is a way to own a serious watch with the story still attached, chosen with the same honest advice we give on jewellery.

We will talk through condition, what has been replaced, and whether the watch suits the way you actually wear one. Try it on. There is no useful decision from a photograph alone.

A sensible first conversation

  • What you want the watch to do — every day, or for occasions
  • Steel, gold, or a mix, and the size that sits well on your wrist
  • Budget, so we show pieces in range rather than above it
  • Whether a pre-loved watch or a new one is the better fit

A small range of new watches

Alongside the pre-loved selection we keep a small range of new watches. The point of a short range is editing: fewer watches, chosen because they are worth recommending, rather than a wall of boxes.

If you are buying a gift, tell us who it is for and how they dress. Wrist size, a preference for a bracelet or a strap, and whether they already own a watch all change the right choice. We would rather send you away with one good suggestion than three maybes.

Watches sit with the rest of the collection — gold, silver, diamonds and gemstones — so a gift can be a watch, a pair of earrings, or both. See the wider collection.

Watch batteries

A battery change is one of the simplest reasons to call in. Bring the watch during opening hours and we will see to it. If the case needs particular care when it is opened, we will tell you before we start.

Straps

A tired strap changes how a good watch feels. We fit replacement straps so the watch you already like can keep being worn, rather than retired to a drawer.
