Their purchase valuations are very low. I bought 2 watches from them, one of which I returned without any difficulty.

Nice to hear you had no difficulty returning a watch though

I bought a 1999 birth year Tag Heuer for my son's 21st 3 years ago and found then easy to deal with and had good communications with them. Did exactly what they said they would do and delivered the watch locally so I could see it in person before purchasing.

It’s low trade in value. C&C, for all their faults, had a much higher trade in value. Of course they have very few watches I would want.

Hollie_Rollie · 31 December 2023, 04:20 AM

Never traded a watch into them. I have bought from them before and it was a good experience

A while ago (more than a year) they were ok. I sold them two watches for a reasonable price.

And then they started lowballing you. I routinely send them queries for my watches but nowadays unless it’s a 16202, 126500 or 5700 they are not buying. Their offers are low and I suspect their stocks outrageously large.

They had their time, but now I don’t even consider them seriously.

Also the staff is the worst I’ve seen. They are the bottom of the barrel of Richemont group.

Correct; the (young) staff I have met and discussed with have little to no knowledge about watches, even worse for vintage models.

I sold an IWC to them the service from start to finish was superb ..

Easy to deal with and good return policy for buying. Insulting offers on non-hype watches.

I got a price from them to sell a Seamaster but it was a bit low. When I turned it down they phoned and offered me more. I eventually sold to Subdial who have been excellent for buying and selling but I would consider Watchfinder again.

Their offers are good and their asking prices are usually negotiable. I've sold two watches to them and a third is in transit at the moment. Their provisional offer for the watch I've just sent tem is as good as I've received from any other used dealer. I haven't bought any watches from them but as said, they were willing to haggle on the two occasions I approached them but ended up going somewhere else.
