Watchtrader & Co Reviews 

We started communication and negotiations about Tudor BB Pink and Flamingo before my UK holiday with Ben.Everything was as said and easy.I will visit again in all my holidays.
Thanks a lot Ben

BEWARE!!
They valued my watch at £7,200. After driving 2 hours of a 4 hour round trip I was told that they had made a mistake and they would only actually give me £6,500. I reluctantly sold them the watch, and was told I would receive the money the following week. Since then I have made repeated phone calls asking when I will receive the money only to be told every time “you will be paid today between 4pm and 5pm. You then have to wait until the following day to call as this is the time they close and they tell you the same thing again. They tell you one again, oh they made a mistake it’s definitely on for today !
This is the first negative review I have ever left anyone but I think they need to be more honest and pay up on time.

Review from a sellers experience
WatchTrader, good comms - speedy response
However the valuation of a 2017 18ct Gold Navitimer was insultive.
Genuinely 50% lower than a better known online watch buyer / seller, shocking.
I completely understand these guys need to make money, they are a business - granted
WatchTrader, if you dont really want to buy a particular brand and or model - dont make senseless offer
You insult the customer, you insult the brand, you insult the market
WatchTrader a no go for me

Good pricing, watch as described, reliable and fast replies

Being honest, I wasn’t perhaps the easiest customer Jon had dealt with, due to a change of mind after purchase. Jon was extremely accommodating and an alternative purchase involving a PX was completed. I have dealt with numerous watch dealers in the past but found Watch Trader was keen to ensure high levels of customer service was maintained throughout. The process is straightforward and works like a well-oiled machine. I have no hesitation in recommending WT as the service I received was top notch. Thanks Jon

My husband and I were in London three different times throughout our month long vacation while looking at watches at different shops.My husband found watchtrader Co online, and presided to the location. They were nothing but professional, polite, quick to respond, and give us good information on the watches that we wanted & saved us money ! Bonus ! Guv, Ben & Mark. Would highly recommend if everyone is looking for a new or used watch!!! We are extremely happy!

I purchased the Rolex GMT-Master II “RootBeer” (all I can say is wow) what a timepiece!
We spoke on the phone, got my order sent out to arrive next day! Really nice guys and very helpful!
I’m over the moon with my new timepiece, big big thank you to WatchTrader & Co 🤝

Not impressed,
Ignored me when asking a question lost a customer

Excellent first purchase with Watchtrader & Co., great customer service and will certainly be back again.

Sold my watch through Watchtrader's consignment method. Process was straightforward and made so by dealing with Jon McShane.
Communication was good by email and WhatsApp, so no problem.
Price was fair and at the end of the day these guys are in business and need to make a profit.
I would do it again and would equally buy from Watchtrader.

I put in an offer for a Breitling which fortunately for me was accepted and watch arrived today by special delivery. It doesn’t matter how much you spend, it’s the service and keeping in touch with your customer(s) that really matters in my humble opinion. I cannot fault them and I dealt with Josh who came through for me.

Great service and a very friendly and helpful team, would definitely use them again.

Vickys communication was second to none, very professional too, we negotiated a price of which I was happy with and sent me over an invoice very promptly, I said my wrist was just over 7 inches and she sized it perfectly so on delivery could wear straight away, the watch come in perfect condition with all box and cards/ papers, the delivery took longer then expected but that was royal mail, all in all a ten out of ten experience many thanks Vicky and team x

Why Watchtrader Stands Out (Based on my experience):
* Physical Presence in London: The opening of their London shop is a significant advantage. For high-value items like luxury watches, many buyers and sellers prefer a physical location where they can see the watches in person, discuss options face-to-face, and ensure authenticity. This also adds a layer of trust and security.
* Personalized Service: Meeting Jon in person and being able to discuss and trade a watch highlights a highly personalized and customer-focused approach. This kind of direct interaction can be invaluable for building rapport and confidence, especially for complex transactions like trades or high-value sales.
* Unparalleled Rolex Sourcing: the "only place able to find you any Rolex watches. they have extensive networks and expertise in the Rolex market.
* Reliable Bidding and Swaps: The fact that they "always bid on any model and can facilitate a swap" is a huge benefit for both sellers and buyers
This makes them a one-stop-shop for various watch-related needs, whether someone is a seasoned collector or has just discovered an old watch. they understand the nuances and desires of this particular demographic.

Awesome had my watch delivered in perfect condition. Love it I would recommend buying off Watchtrader & Co.

Picked up a new Patek today from Watchtrader Was busy in the shop in Berkeley square but Guv who served me was as good as gold and conducted business very well the correct watch stylus was not with the watch and no hesitation he's sorting one to exchange no problem thanks again

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.

bought a GMT Bi metal great company amazing watch 👍

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.
