Really good

Really good, I believe it shows what a company is about when things go a little awry. My first order wasn't quite right, the only alternative was a slightly more expensive option which they reduced to honour the price of the original. Alfie was great, very efficient and came back quickly on any questions I had.

Very good prices and highly efficient service! After taking photos of my Watch, I was given a really good price. I was then sent all the packaging needed to ship my watch for inspection. The Courier service was included. After my watch had been inspected, I expected some sort of mark down on their offer- but no! They stuck to their offer price! I then bought another watch from them- it was delivered via a speedy and fully insured DHL Courier service. All round, a great experience!

Daylight robbery imo

Offering me 1/3 of the manufacturers £6000 RRP to buy my watch that’s less than a year old, but selling almost the same watch which is 4 year older on their website for double what they’ve offered me. This gives you an idea of the margins these people are working to! Buy and sell elsewhere would be my advice!

Great service from Watchfinder, poor from DHL

After initial contact I didn’t receive a reply therefore had to follow up. Was in contact with Alfie who was great at communication and keeping me up to date regarding the process. Speaking with him he was very helpful with guidance. DHL never collected my watch as scheduled but out of your hands therefore mailed this myself. Happy with watch inspection and offer which was accepted. DHL were to deliver the watch as scheduled however didn’t therefore had to call them to question their delivery. Wouldn’t recommend them as courier but Alfie and the team at Watchfinder were great! Thank you and love my new watch 💫
