Olly was fantastic in sourcing my watch, very professional with superb communication. I would highly recommend Olly and his team at GA and I will certainly be using them in the future.

My watch was returned, repaired, with the battery i had supplied fitted, time and date set. When I offered to pay I was waved away with "Our Compliments - just leave us a good review..." Well here it is - brilliant empathetic service and a new customer for life. Thank You.

Excellent Service

Excellent Service, highly recommend! Sold my lovely Vacheron & Constatin watch to GA Pawnbrokers. Right from the onset I had a wonderful experience from all the staff, especially Olly and Tristan, who were both at hand to provide me great advice and assistance. They are well known in the industry as watch experts and good guys, now having experienced this I totally agree. The end result.. I sold my watch quickly, receiving an excellent price and they paid me promptly too, highly recommended and would would use their service again! Thank you. Niaz

Great service - no pressure.

I wanted a top-name watch and went to a few shops in Brighton. GA were the most impressive. Tristan is highly knowledgeable and answered all my questions well. Also, very friendly, trustworthy and genuinely customer-focused - at the end I had decided which model I wanted but couldn't decide between two watches with different coloured bezels. He said "If I may say so, this one suits your look better". He was right and I bought it, but it he could have got more money for GA if he'd recommended the other - it was the more expensive of the two. 100% recommendation.

Nice people to deal with.

Nice people to deal with. No issues with my transaction. I achieved what I was looking to get and found the transaction to be smooth and professional. I received my payment almost immediately. I would deal with GA again.

Fantastic customer service from Olly

Fantastic customer service from Olly. So convenient having prompt updates on my watch repair on WhatsApp. Watch is like new and the service was very reasonably priced. Highly recommend, will use again. Well worth the trip to Brighton.

I’ve sold 3 watches now with Tristan…

I’ve sold 3 watches now with Tristan and he’s super responsive over email, very considerate and even more of a pleasure to deal with in person at the Lanes branch. Prices have been fair and instant payments. Highly recommend!

Highly recommended. Great service

Popped in on the off chance, trying to find a jewellers where I could get the battery changed in my Tissot watch on the same day(as we were on holiday ).They did it in minutes and very kindly didn't charge me. Lovely friendly staff. I will be coming back next time we're in Brighton with my other watch. Thank you so much.
