How do I buy from Fitzrovia Watches?
For mutual security we do not have online checkout on our Website. You can either make an appointment and buy face to face or we ship all over the UK and the World. Just pick up the phone or send us an email to discuss/arrange. We have facilities for card payments (not AMEX) and can also accept Bank Transfers or cash payments (Up to £8k). Coronavirus update: We remain fully open for business. We continue to send watches fully insured all over the world with Fedex operating as normal.
What is your best price? – can I make you an offer?
We have always operated an honest and transparent FIXED price policy. Rather than inflate our prices and then haggle the price you see is always the best we can offer. We never haggle.
What are your shipping arrangements?
Your Watch will always be carefully packaged, fully insured, tracked online and will require a signature on receipt.
Do you offer a Warranty and Insurance Valuation?
We check all of our watches very carefully and would not sell anything that was not operating properly in the first place. Many of the watches we sell are still covered by the original manufacturers’ warranty, where this is not the case we offer a 12 month warranty against mechanical problems (not damage to watch following misuse/accident). We provide an Insurance Valuation with all watches we sell.
What is your returns policy?
If you collect your watch in person but subsequently change your mind we will offer to buy it back in the same condition subject to a re-stocking charge. If you buy the watch without first inspecting it you are covered by the UK ‘distance selling regulations’ which allow you to return the goods (in the same condition) within 14 days of receipt for a full no quibble refund.
What is your customer feedback record?
Since 2009 we are proud to have served 1000s of customers all over the World. Here is a selection of the lovely feedback we have received……

"Honest, straight talking, genuine watch enthusiasts, who seemed to have turned their passion into a business. I would not hesitate to recommend Fitzrovia Watches and I will definitely be back, when I decide to upgrade. Thanks to Chris and the team."
"The pre-owned watch world can be a daunting experience, but Chris is a pleasure to deal with. Straight forward and no nonsense, but friendly and accomodating"
"This is the second watch I have purchased from Chris and his service has been second to none. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble to ensure that the whole experience was as smooth and as enjoyable as possible. Without hesitation I will be using and recommending Chris again as excellent customer service and trust in this market is an absolute must."
"What a thoroughly nice chap. Have only bought watches from high street shops before now, so was a little cautious at first. I needn’t of been, Chris was totally professional and personable. I had to cancel our first meeting due to work commitments and at late notice, Chris was able to change his plans to accommodate me, much appreciated in the busy run up to Christmas. The watch (for my wife!) was better than I could of expected. Thanks Chris, if you happen to come across one with the white dial, do let me know!"
"Highly recommend. Attention to detail from initial communication to delivery of watch. I know 3 people who have bought watches since I recommended Fitzrovia Watches and they are as pleased as me."

Great to buy from! Incredibly happy with the watch! Chris was always prompt and helpful!
