Watch Sourcing
We begin with you, not our inventory.
Traditional watch retail begins with the watches a dealer already owns. Our sourcing service actually begins with the client.
A vintage watch is highly personal. It should suit your taste, your wrist, your lifestyle and the reason you are buying it.
Rather than trying to sell you whichever pieces happen to be available, we take the time to understand exactly what you are looking for.
You may know the precise reference you want, or simply the style and feeling you are drawn to. We help refine the brief, explain the options and search for the best possible example within your budget.
Every potential watch is carefully assessed for condition, originality and value. The selected piece is authenticated, mechanically inspected and serviced where required before being presented to you at our Chelsea showroom.
Our role is not simply to find a watch. It is to find the watch we would confidently recommend for you, and remove the uncertainty from buying it.

Vintage charm, without the uncertainty
Vintage watches are rarely identical. Two examples of the same reference can differ substantially in condition, originality, mechanical health and value.
Refinished dials, excessive polishing, incorrect components and hidden movement problems are not always apparent from online photographs. Even an authentic watch may not represent a good example or a sensible purchase.
We filter the market on your behalf, assess potential watches carefully and reject those that do not meet our high standards. The selected watch is authenticated, mechanically inspected in-house and serviced where required before it is presented to you.
You do not need to become an expert before buying a vintage watch. You simply need someone knowledgeable representing your interests.
Searching beyond the open market
Many of the finest vintage watches never reach public websites or online marketplaces. They change hands privately between collectors, established dealers and longstanding clients.
Through our trusted network in the UK and internationally, we can search beyond publicly advertised stock and consider opportunities that may not otherwise be visible.
But access alone is not enough. Each potential watch must still earn our recommendation through its condition, originality, mechanical integrity and value.
