The whole process of dealing with the team at Watches of Whitby was extremely professional and courteous. A totally straight forward and pleasurable experience.
Just bought a watch from here last week. Would have loved to visit the shop first but didn't have the time so had it delivered with no issues whatsoever. The watch was exactly as described and in fantastic order, I'm really pleased with my purchase!
I live locally and was out walking when I came across a beautiful ladies omega watch, I emailed the shop the next day and got an appointment for the following day, the reply was super quick. When I went to view the watch the staff were amazing and super helpful, I bought the watch and will be going back in future for further purchases 🙂

I had the good fortune to come across Watches of Whitby whilst looking for a Rolex Sky Dweller. The watch was as described and priced sensibly. I offered to place a deposit over the phone which they agreed to. A period of 2 weeks was extended which for a watch this much in demand was rare. The service was exceptional and it transpires that they are a small family concern which is a rarity today. I shall definitely make Watches of Whitby my first choice when looking for another watch. First class all round.
Husband decided to treat himself to another watch. What a gem of a shop Watches of Whitby is. Over a period of 3 days we met nearly all of the staff who were so friendly and welcoming. The watches he finally selected are in a lovely condition. Highly recommend.
I have been collecting watches for many years now, and have had dealings with numerous outlets and traders, Watches of Whitby are, in my opinion, one of the very best. Knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and with outstanding attention to detail, I cannot recommend them highly enough and look forward to dealing with them again in the future.
I bought a Tudor from Watches of Whitby and I can't recommend them highly enough. The team replied to my questions promptly and were very helpful. The watch arrived in even better condition than described and in bomb-proof packaging. It was like receiving a brand new watch. Highly recommended.
A visit to Watches of Whitby today to view and purchase a 2023 Rolex Submariner, my first luxury watch.Absolutely beautiful condition.The young lady and young man were very knowledgeable ,very helpful. I am very appreciative of the nice experience i had with them. Thankyou Darren
I Brought a Rolex 126610V "Starbucks" from Watches of Whitby. The team held on to the Watch longer than required which gave that extra bit of customer service. The team was very helpful and provided a Watch with excellent care and attention. I will be using their Expertise's again in the near future.
As always, excellent service from the staff and I received a fair price for the watch I was selling; would certainly use them again.
Entered a raffle on watches of whitby, good experience, probably a little let down by the results process.
Bought a pre-owned watch and the condition of it was exception. Fast comms from the seller (Alex) answering all my questions, keeping me up to date with the order and next day delivery. Would thoroughly recommend dealing with this company.
Purchased my first watch with Watches of Whitby. My initial email questions were answered promptly then the whole buying process followed which was both friendly and professional. I received my watch which was exactly as described and actually exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended
Brought a Tudor Chrono from W of W and I would definitely recommend them, great friendly service and very knowledgeable. Had the watch a couple of months now and it’s been flawless keeping excellent time. Their range of watches is very extensive and prices very competitive, will definitely buy from them again.
Watches of Whitby offer the best raffles to win Luxury Watches that I have seen. I participate in all of their raffles with the prizes being amazing Luxury Watches. I’ve not won yet but, I live in hope! Hopefully 🤞 I’ll have the luck of the draw on of these days!!!
I’ve dreamed of owning a Rolex since I was a kid. I’ve always wanted to add a Rolex to my watch collection, specifically a Rolex submariner no date. I follow watches of Whitby on Instagram and whilst myself and my girlfriend were in Whitby we thought we’d call in. I was honest with the lady that was working and said to her I was wanting a Rolex but couldn’t afford one just yet and if she would possibly let me try one on to see if I liked it on the wrist. The lady was so accommodating and non judgemental with this and got me to a few watches to try on, from a Submariner no date to a Bluesy and something different to what I had in mind a 1999/2000 GMT master. She also gifted me a little watch pouch for following and supporting them, another thing that I won’t forget that made them stand out. They also allowed our dogs in the shop which made it so much easier for us to be able to look around as not many jewellers would off allowed this. I will certainly be going back to watches of Whitby to buy my watches from there in the future for myself & partner. They have a great collection of different branded watches to choose from along with a big range of luxury jewellery. The set up is fantastic, prices are good and we couldn’t recommend them enough to people who are looking for jewellery and watches.
Absolute amazing service , even stayed after hours to finish my exchange! Friendly staff and excellent product knowledge ! Well done guys
