London pre owned

Hi all,

I may have a handful of hours to spare on my next trip to London. Will appreciate any pointers towards a trustworthy pre owned dealer in or around London.

Thanks in advance!

hi mate, good place to start for a pre owned rolex in london is new bond street, there is around 10 shops down there. they sell nice clean watches. there are plenty of other places in london for pre owned, but want way to much money for them, for instance a 1985 datejust with aftermarket set diamonds,they want £2850!!!! good luck with the hunt.

Burlington is great, but the prices are not for the faint of heart.

Love that place. Bought an SD from Kamal (then BJS and now of Pro-Hunter fame) many years ago.
