Written by the company

Mainspring Watches UK were incorporated on Christmas Eve 2021 by us, Tristan and Jay. We both love everything watches having owned them for many years! With us being family, we share a unique bond that compliments our shared experience both in work and our passions. We opened our beautiful Farnborough HQ in August 2022 for appointment-only viewings & a place for our customers to meet us, talk watches, and see what we have in stock.

Rare but good companies exist!

So nice that there are still UK companies who:
1) answer the phone quickly and politely,
2) answer questions honestly,
3) do what they say they will do,
4) keep in contact with the customer during the transaction process.

I have only praise for Tristan at Mainspring Watches who dealt with my query, and then purchase, swiftly and professionally but also in a friendly manner. Fully intend and hope to use again!

Absolutely superb

Absolutely superb. Tristan was excellent - my only regret is not being able to have dealt face to face! I traded a piece for two of Tristans watches - one of which wasn't even advertised, I'd simply expressed what I'd like in my first communication with him.

Don't even hesitate if you see something you like, or want to trade - Tristan is very fair, and is just like his customers - passionate about watches! This will be the first of many transactions going forward!

Simply brilliant!

First class

First class - it was my first time purchasing a luxury watch and my inexperience showed.

Tristan was fantastic, he helped me step into this world and gave me his advice on everything from watch faces to streps.
His knowledge on watches is vast and his prices are very good it was a win win.
I felt a sense of relief from the very first time that I contacted him.

Tristan was allways on hand to take my calls and answered all of my questions, my “if’s “ and “buts”

I had complete confidence and trust in Tristan and that still remains.

I can honestly say that he was invaluable to me and my search for the right watch.

He is completely trustworthy and one of the good guys because, let’s face it there are some very dodgey sellers out there.

Totally recommended

Thank you to you all at Mainspring Watches.

Fantastic buying experience (online)…

Fantastic buying experience (online) with Mainspring Watches. Very easy to communicate with, with almost instant replies whatever time of day or night I messaged. Easy discussion over part exchange with very fair offers for my watches. My final purchase was an outstanding piece at a great price, securely packaged and delivered as soon as possible after I finalised payment. Altogether a great watch buying experience and will happily do so again.

From the moment I first had contact…

From the moment I first had contact with Mainspring, I have had total confidence in the watch I purchased and the delivery system they have used. Mainspring have kept me informed of everything that was happening and what was coming next. The delivery was on time and very well packaged. I could not fault the item and service I have received. I will certainly look at Mainspring for any watch purchases in the future.
