Watch arrived and strap was too small

Watch arrived and strap was too small. Contacted Abigail at Watchfinder and immediately resolved.

The measure of good service is not when things are happy path, more when they aren't.

Would recommend.

Issues easily resolved

Ordered my dream watch, it arrived and wasn’t quite what I was expecting but nothing I hoped couldn’t be sorted with a conversation. Spoke to Abi J in customer services and within minutes she had sorted the issues to my satisfaction and then followed up with an email confirming what we had discussed. Yes the issues were disappointing but it’s how Abi helped resolve this that makes me feel comfortable with giving this company 5 stars. Abi is a credit to the company.

Low offer, longer process than usual. £100 still missing

I received a rather low price on my watch, although there was an offer on my account for £100 more that I did not receive, I had to continually chase to get the cash due back to me. The process took far longer than it normally would. The offers seem to get worse after having used Watchfinder for a few sales.
I was however happy with the watch I received. I chased the fact the offer with £100 more was still live on my account and wanted the additional £100 but never received a response from Watchfinder.

Watchfinder were very quick with their responses to questions I did have a small problem which turned out to be something I had done. Delivery was very quick and easy if I had any criticism it would only be that when you get a presentation box for your watch maybe it should say what condition it is in I no you don’t buy a watch for the box but it is nice to no the condition
