I have sold a few pieces on watch collecting. It's really convenient and safe. I never once felt like i was in danger of being ripped off, even when selling hundreds of thousands worth of watches. It'... See more

Alex and his team at Watch Collecting were amazing. From start to finish a flawless service, i went for the managed service which was superb. Did exactly what they said they were going to do. As soon as the auction ended on my watch i received the full money within hours. Could not recommend highly enough.
I was sceptical about selling online however was pleasantly surprised with the service and assurances provided by Watch Collecting. Kieran made the process very straight forward and kept me informed throughout the process. Very happy with the service and process and would highly recommend. Thank you!!
Fleur Really made a great work, she listen, she is always available, the sale was a success because of Watch Collecting and also because of the team, well done !
Good communications and arranged photographer very quickly and what was sold after the auction ended to one of the interested parties
First successful bid via the Watch Collecting auction
Very clear & user friendly to operate
Helpful team who connected me with the seller… who were great people to do business with
There are always commercial risks associated with buying at auction but the Watch Collecting worked well for me

Straightforward enough bidding process and I was kept up to date with higher bids etc, so no complaints there. However, I was naïve in thinking that Watch Collecting would take payment for the watch and assist with shipping. None of this is taken care of despite the quite hefty commission fee paid. As I say, this was my mistake for not reading terms etc fully, but it's 4 days after I won the watch and shipping is still being arranged via couriers with the private seller. In summary, yes, it is easy to buy, but be prepared to put in quite a bit of work afterwards to get your watch if you don't live close to the seller.
Great auction platform and experience! As a buyer in the States with a seller in the UK, I was a little cautious, but the transaction went off without a hitch. Their terms are made very clear, the seller was a true gentleman and the timepiece exceeded my expectations.
effortless process with a professional service throughout
Great transaction. Easy to use and transparent auction site. Pick up after purchase no problem. Absolutely recommend!
Selling my watch was an easy process and Fleur Dubois was excellent in guiding me throughout. My questions were answered quickly and help was on hand whenever I needed it. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Watch Collecting again and in particular, Fleur - well done!
Great transaction. Quick and easy to sell and great communication during the process from Kieran.
Process worked fine. Very professional experience. Downside...buyers' premium minimum of £500 plus VAT is a bit steep...20% of cost of watch.
🕰️✨ AMAZING WATCH SELLING EXPERIENCE! Kudos to Hugo and the Watch Collecting Team! 🤝💼
Just sold a couple of watches and I have to say, the entire process was exceptional. From the very beginning, Hugo provided top-notch customer care, ensuring a smooth onboarding for a new customer like myself. He was readily available to address any questions I had, going above and beyond to offer assistance.
But it didn't end there! The support I received throughout the sales process was outstanding, and even after the sale was completed, their after-sales service was impeccable. I had a few inquiries regarding the buyer, and they were there to provide excellent guidance and support.
Overall, I am incredibly impressed and will definitely be using your services again without hesitation. Thank you for an outstanding experience!
Successfully managed to sell 2 watches using Watch Collecting. Had the help and guidance of Senior Consignment Specialist, Kieran Narain, who with his knowledge of the current market was able to advise me on how to successfully list my timepieces to achieve the best outcome from the auction.
I highly recommend using Watch Collecting if you’re looking for a quick, professional and safe way to sell your watches. Furthermore I recommend having the assistance of team members like Kieran guiding you through the process.
I sold. You will get a transaction over the line if you’re realistic on price. I’m very happy with my experience. Kieran was astute in judging a sensible reserve and managed things for me excellently. I would highly recommend.
Without Hugo's call I would have forgotten completely about the auction running and would have missed the opportunity to finally own this beautiful piece. He called me to introduce himself, asked me if I have any further questions about the platform and made himself available for any queries I had. Even when I wrote him an email, his response was extremely prompt. Fantastic service.
I've sold a few pieces through Watch Collecting – the sales team, especially Daniel O'Conner are very friendly and responsive. The platform and concept are great. The auctions have achieved good prices in a tough secondary market.
Open and honest company that got me the price I wanted for my watch. Oliver Roberts was excellent. Good communication throughout.
