Watches

The watch brands we buy, sell, and service

From a first Tudor to a Patek Philippe, these are some of the most sought-after makers. If yours isn't listed, ask anyway.

Four luxury watches, a dive watch, a chronograph, a dress watch, and a tank style, on a leather tray

Buy, sell, or service any of them

We buy these watches for cash, sell them new and pre-owned, and service them at our own bench. When a repair calls for the maker's own service center, we send it there and look after the whole process.
