Seamless purchasing experience.

I recently purchased a Longines watch as an anniversary present for my husband and dealt with Jay. He was incredibly helpful and informative making the whole purchasing experience seamless. The watch arrived very quickly and is perfect. I cannot wait to give it to my husband.

Only sell to them if you want ripping off

Absolute pi$$ take. I was quoted £3,020 for my Omega watch. It is like new, has been worn less than 10 times and retails at over £14,000. Needless to say I didn’t accept the offer. Do yourself a favour and sell privately. I checked their website and they are selling watches 12 years younger than mine for over £4,000, in addition those watches are nowhere near the spec of mine. I understand they are in it to make a profit; however, they are taking the pi$$.

Rolex Purchase and Repair

Bought a Rolex sub and decided to use Watchfinder as a trusted supplier for peace of mind and they didn’t let me down. The purchase process was fantastic with options to view at their city boutique, and condition of watch was exactly as the described. Then I had a small issue with the watch and contacted them. There communication and response via Abi was first class, providing all information and packaging for return at no cost. All through the process I was kept up to speed by Abi, and the watch was repaired with no quibbles under Witchfinder's warranty and retuned fully covered. I always say it’s when things go wrong and sometimes they do you see how good a company is, and I haven’t been let down. I will definitely be purchasing again via Watchfinder.
