How we take the watch & pay you
Once we’ve agreed a price, you can either:
- Come to our office at 88-90 Hatton Garden, London EC1N 8PN (by appointment). We check the watch with you there. See directions and how to book; or
- Post it to us by Special Delivery: fully insured Royal Mail Special Delivery to our Hatton Garden address. We confirm receipt, inspect the watch, then proceed.
After we’ve checked the watch and everything matches what was agreed, we pay you by bank transfer. Clear, straightforward, no nonsense.
We buy with or without box and papers. Complete sets usually achieve a stronger price.
