It's astonishing how difficult it is to do any business with this company, even as a current customer. There's no follow-up; a salesperson makes a counteroffer, and the next day, when you're about to... See more

I bought my Rolex Submariner 116610LN over 10 years ago and never planned to sell it — I’m not someone who buys and flips watches. However when I needed funds for a house move, I was shocked at how... See more

This is my second watch to purchase…

This is the second watch I have purchased from WatchFinder & Co. and once again, the purchase process was smooth & very efficient. Richard and the rest of the team were always professional and kept me up to date at all stages of the purchase & delivery process.

The watch itself is in excellent condition and I am extremely happy with the purchase.

I would certainly recommend WatchFinder & Co. and I will be using them again for their customer service and value for money.

The watch arrived on time and in good condition. It was quite good value for a two year old watch. But beware; although this uses an Irish website, it is actually UK based and after paying you get an email saying you may have to pay import taxes. Not the case in my purchase but not transparent.

Just received my new Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra from Watchfinder.
The watch was made in 2015 and is absolutely flawless.
It came with the original box, manual, spare links and certificate.
I couldn't recommend them highly enough.
Great value for money and a pleasure to deal with!

Staff were super to deal with and the watch was perfect. I deducted a star because I had asked (and reminded several times) for delayed delivery as it was a birthday present and I was anxious about the 14-day return policy. But the watch was dispatched as soon as I paid and arrived really quickly. I know it seems strange to complain about such prompt service but having agreed to delay, it was a little disappointing the request wasn't followed. Otherwise, the process was great and I would recommend this company without hesitation.
