Absolutely great team! I sold my watch at the London branch through Guv, and he’s been there every step of the way, helping me with its worth and guiding me through the steps for the payment. The times I needed to contact the team in Newcastle for any updates as my watch was sold on consignment were seamless also. Honestly, great service, and they know how to do good business!"

Had a good experience selling my watch using watch trader, hassle free, Jon was honest and polite, communications done mainly over wattsapp.
watch was quite valuable and sometimes had to wait several days for a response, overall was good and I would definitely use this company again.

Went a week after and got myself another watch. Guv is a brilliant person, he knows how to make you feel at home. Because of him I came back a week later. Well done all. Keep up the brilliant work.

I recently purchased the Rolex GMT-Master II "Batgirl" 2023 model from Watchertrader’s London branch, and the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I stepped into their store, I was greeted with professionalism, transparency, and genuine enthusiasm.
The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to walk me through every detail of the watch — from its iconic Jubilee bracelet to the stunning blue and black ceramic bezel. They ensured I was completely comfortable and confident in my purchase, answering all my questions with patience and clarity.
What truly set Watchertrader apart was their integrity and dedication to customer satisfaction. The watch came in pristine, unworn condition with full box and papers, exactly as described. Their pricing was fair and competitive, especially given the high demand for this model.
Whether you're a seasoned collector or buying your first luxury timepiece, I couldn’t recommend Watchertrader more highly. Thank you to the London team for making this a smooth, memorable, and rewarding experience. I’ll definitely be back for my next piece!

The buying process was pretty simple through Instagram. Was able to negotiate a bit and paid a decent price for what I was told was a “brand new, fully stickered” watch.
My piece arrived 2 days later as promised, but there was a very obvious ding on the watch. I find it very hard to believe that so-called watch experts would have missed this. I feel misled that it was sold to me brand new.
I reached out via the same instagram chat explaining this. I had to message them multiple times to respond. I initially received an apology and was told it was a mistake. They initially offered a replacement watch. I responded yesterday and I am still waiting on a reply.
EDIT: spoke to Director of operations on the phone and they have agreed to send me a brand new watch after I return this one to them.

Brilliant service from watchtrader and co. Went through the information on WhatsApp. They helped me straight away. Jon dealt with everything and gave a ballpark estimate, then Guv ant the London branch was approachable and someone you can talk to so well. That is literally why I ended up with my watch.
Keep up the good work on YouTube and the store. Will be back again.
Thank you

We used Watch Trader consignment service which proved to be straight forward and trouble free, very clear transactions and prompt payment, they exceeded our expectations and would definitely be using this company again.
Thanks again to Jon and the team in the background that make this a super slick experience.

Purchased a Cartier Ballon Bleu 33mm watch from Watchtrader. The overall experience was fantastic. Beautiful watch, as described and they went out of their way to ensure that my watch bracelet was resized. Will definitely recommend Watchtrader and if I want another watch in the future I won’t hesitate to buy from them again. Thank you!

Let’s say the whole story :
I bought September 2024 a Rolex watch (which it supposed to never stop working ) and WatchTrader promoted the watch on their page as Excellent condition.
I understand that I have bought quite an old watch, but I spent a lot of money for a Rolex watch which supposedly never stop working and it was promoted by you as excellent condition. I spoke with Josh on what’s up and he ensured me that the watch is working perfectly and excellent condition. I was excited I bought a watch and Josh asked me to leave review at the time of purchase I was happy did I expected it will break after 6 months no , so now when I have experienced your service and attitude I have a better view of the company.
I bought the watch and 6 months later ( only 6 months )of wearing this forever watch in an excellent condition *by watch trader the watch stopped working . ( completely stopped working , I was devastated and sad ) I was in shock and extremely disappointed from my purchase and from the service.
I contacted watchTrader for the service as it has 12 months of warranty they have been very rude and unfriendly to me via messages. ( it’s not my fault your item is so bad and after 6 months stopped working ) everyone would agree with me that watch is not in a excellent condition if it stopped working after 6 months. I do not recommend this company.
Instead of apologizing to me that I have experienced this with the item I bought so quickly, that they have sold me a shit item , they were rude to me when I tried to get the service which is covered in the warranty .
Of course I want to sell this watch as after another 6 months when the watch you sold me beaks down again I have to pay 700£ for service .
You obviously don’t want to buy the watch as you are actually admitting you have sold a shit item you don’t even believe you can sell it again ! ( what a joke)
Plenty of other watch traders, make your research and don’t trust them . ( also very weird that they are constantly switching their contact numbers, in order to get in touch with them )
I am very unhappy , disappointed, with this company , I feel like they sold me an item that should be used for lifetime , but required service after 6 months only, purely don’t promote it as excellent , say it’s satisfactory condition. Just shocking and not right and your defensive answer below is just proving it all !!
I won’t trust and buy from them again !
We live in a free country where I have the right to express my experience, how I felt and what I like or dislike.
You are keep editing your respond below which is very strange. Just appreciate the feedback and move on. I am unhappy and that’s it! So immature behaviour to change four times your reply below.
This platform is for real customers of WatchTraders to express their opinion and help other buyers.
Thank you so much for your long reply below , very detailed!
Have a lovely weekend Victoria !
I will sell the watch easily don’t worry , I hope you can learn to describe items better next time.
Faulty watch after 6 months was obviously described very poorly from your team as excellent .
