Written by the company

Mainspring Watches UK were incorporated on Christmas Eve 2021 by us, Tristan and Jay. We both love everything watches having owned them for many years! With us being family, we share a unique bond that compliments our shared experience both in work and our passions. We opened our beautiful Farnborough HQ in August 2022 for appointment-only viewings & a place for our customers to meet us, talk watches, and see what we have in stock.

These guys set the bar quite high…

These guys have such a passion for watches and it absolutely shows in every aspect of dealing with them. I personally dealt with Tristan who is just a stellar person.

I came across Mainspring while searching for additional links for my Carrera chrono & SLR Calibre S. Tristan went above & beyond & was able to source the required links in great condition and at a very reasonable price. Communication was absolutely top notch despite the massive time zone differences between the UK & Australia. Replies were always prompt, engaging and you can just tell how passionate he is in every message you get. When the links arrived they were seriously well packed and in amazing condition.

In the scope of other reviews on here my purchase wasn’t a big one…but seeing that they put as much effort & passion into sourcing a few links for a guy across the other side of the globe as they would for a local purchasing a high end timepiece…I simply cannot recommend Mainspring Watches enough…yes they are THAT good. Thank you so very much 🙏👌🙂

Flawless service…

Spoke with Jamie looking a particular strap that Mainspring are stockists of and had a seamless service from start to finish… the strap arrived in a matter of days and was updated at every stage. I definitely recommend and will be returning again in future.

Was dubious at first but found the whole sale from start to finish very professional, quick and easy. Pleasure dealing with everyone involved.
Dropped the watch off in the morning and had the money in my account the same day! Would Definitely use again!

Exceptional service and excellent communication

I was in need of a rare and discontinued bracelet for a watch used daily for a specific work purpose. Tristan was able to source the bracelet I needed and offered it at an extremely reasonable price, all achieve over the course of a weekend. Comms were exceptional and between Tristan and Jay, I had a confirmed order on the Monday, which was subsequently received on the Tuesday. Bracelet was as described and well packed. I literally couldn’t have asked for a better service from start to finish. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Mainspring again, or to recommend them to anyone looking for an honest, reasonably priced, first class service.

Great watch, best service possible.

Over the moon with the watch, exactly as pictured with box and papers. Tristan was absolutely fantastic, messaged back within minutes and was able to send special delivery - incredible service.
Will definitely be the first place I go to in the future. Thank you!

A good company to work with. I worked with Tristan who was always professional and diligent inspections were carried out quickly and I was kept informed throughout. Once complete funds were received promptly. I would highly recommend.

Thanks Allen,

Honest & professional

This was the first time I had sold a watch before and Mainspring watches couldn't have made it more accommodating. I was nervous about posting my watch for inspection, so I drove to do it in person. On meeting the faces behind the name, I couldn't have felt more comfortable leaving the watch with them to inspect.

The watch I was selling needed a service which affected the price they could offer me for it, but they took the trouble to call me yesterday (a week on from our business concluding) to say that the service cost less than they expected and paid me a further £80!!

Genuinely good people providing an honest and professional service. Wouldn't think twice about working with them again.

Thank you Mainspring Watches!
