Hart Time is a specialist in buying, selling, and part-exchanging pre-owned luxury watches, serving clients in Tunbridge Wells and across Kent. We offer honest valuations, genuine expertise, and a process that is straightforward from start to finish. Whether you are ready to sell or looking for your next watch, we are here to help.
A lot of people put off selling a watch because they are not sure who to trust or what their watch is actually worth. At Hart Time, we take the uncertainty out of it. Submit your details through our online form with a few photographs and some background on the watch, and we will come back to you with an honest initial valuation based on what the market is actually doing right now. There is no obligation to go any further, and no pressure if you decide not to.
If you do want to proceed, we will arrange for your watch to come to us, either by Royal Mail Special Delivery or via a collection that suits you. Once we have carried out our inspection and you are happy with our final offer, we get the money across to your bank account as fast as we can.
Get in touch today for your free, no-obligation valuation.
Every watch we sell has been personally sourced, checked for authenticity, and looked over in detail before it appears on our website. We don’t list anything we are not fully satisfied with, and we back every piece with a full Hart Time warranty.
If you spot something you like, use the enquiry button on the listing and we will be in touch. Prefer to see it in person first? We are happy to arrange a private viewing at a time that works for you.
Browse our current collection online or contact us to talk through what you are looking for.
Start by reaching out via our online form, email, or phone. Tell us about the watch you are looking to sell, including the model, its condition, any service history, and some clear photographs. The more detail you can share, the more accurate our initial valuation will be.
Happy with our initial figure? The next step is getting your watch to us. Send it via Royal Mail Special Delivery to our secure address, or we can arrange a collection from your home or wherever is most convenient. Buyers looking to view a watch in person can arrange a private appointment with us directly.
Once your watch is with us, our specialists examine it thoroughly, checking authenticity, condition, and every detail of the piece. We also run it through The Watch Register, the global database of lost and stolen watches, as a matter of course. We will then come back to you with our confirmed final offer.
Agree to our offer and we move quickly. Payment goes straight to your bank account with no unnecessary delays. It is as simple as that.
We work with clients across Kent and understand what buyers and sellers in this area are looking for. You will not get a generic experience here. You will get someone who knows the market, knows the watches, and gives you honest advice based on both.
Our offers are driven by real-time market data, not guesswork. We look at what comparable watches are actually selling for right now and build our valuation from there. When we give you a number, we explain it clearly and we don’t change it on a whim.
Every watch that passes through our hands is inspected in full, from the movement to the bracelet clasp. We check each piece against The Watch Register and will not offer a watch for sale unless we are completely confident in it. Every watch we sell comes backed by our warranty.
Buying or selling a watch is a considered decision and we treat it that way. We are not here to rush you. Ask us anything, take your time, and come to the decision that is right for you.
We regularly buy and sell watches from Rolex, Omega, Tudor, IWC, Hublot, and more. If you have one of these or another quality timepiece you are looking to buy or sell, get in touch and we will let you know where we stand.
Every client who comes to us gets our undivided attention. We work by appointment so there are no distractions and no waiting around, just a straightforward conversation about your watch in a relaxed setting. Booking is quick and easy online or over the phone.
Get in touch through our online form and share details about your watch. We will provide an initial valuation and, if you are happy to proceed, arrange for your watch to reach us by post or collection. After our inspection we will confirm our final offer, and once agreed, payment follows as quickly as possible.
We base our valuations on the brand, model, reference number, age, condition, and current market demand. Having the original box and papers can increase the value, but they are not a requirement.
No. They can add value and it is always worth mentioning them, but we are happy to consider a watch without them. Get in touch and we will give you a straight answer.
Yes. Every watch we sell has been authenticated by our team and is backed by a full Hart Time warranty. We would not put a watch on our website unless we were certain of it.
