Pre-Owned Watches

Time 4 Diamonds buys, sells and sources pre-owned luxury watches, and has done since 2005 from our London base at 3 More London Riverside and our Dubai showroom. Every watch we sell is inspected and authenticated by our own watchmakers before it is listed, and is sold with a warranty. This is where to start if you want a specific model, a specific reference, or simply advice on the right piece for your budget.

Pre-owned watch brands we stock

Our stock spans the brands that hold their appeal on the secondary market. Browse pre-owned Rolex watches, Patek Philippe watches, Audemars Piguet watches, Cartier watches, Hublot watches and Richard Mille watches. We also handle Franck Muller, Chanel and other maisons across our wider collection.

How we authenticate pre-owned watches

Buying pre-owned only works if the watch is exactly what it claims to be. Our watchmakers check the movement, case, dial, hands and bracelet on every piece, confirm the reference and serial details, and assess servicing history. Where a watch has box and papers we say so, and where it does not we say that too. Nothing goes on sale until it has passed that inspection, which is what separates a dealer purchase from a private-sale gamble.

Condition, warranty and what to expect

Pre-owned watches range from unworn full-set examples to honest, well-kept daily wearers, and the price reflects the difference. Each listing describes the condition plainly. Every watch carries a warranty, and we are open about which pieces have been serviced and which are running on their original service interval. If a watch needs work, our servicing team can bring it back into specification before it reaches you.

Sourcing a watch we do not currently hold

If you are after a particular model, dial or reference that is not in stock, our team can locate it for you through our watch sourcing service. This is how many of our clients buy discontinued or hard-to-find references without trawling the open market themselves. Tell us the exact specification and we will do the searching.

Bespoke and customised watches

Alongside standard pre-owned pieces, we build customised watches: diamond-set bezels and dials, custom dials and protective coatings. If you want a watch tailored to your taste rather than an off-the-shelf configuration, see our bespoke watches and speak to our team about what is possible.

Buying and delivery

You can buy online with insured UK delivery, or arrange a viewing at our London showroom to handle a watch before committing. For international buyers, and for our Middle Eastern clients in particular, WhatsApp is the quickest way to reach us and discuss stock, condition and shipping.
