    Places to look at pre-owned watches near Leeds / Sheffield??

    I'm looking for a watch this week, something like a SMP300 / Planet ocean / Sinn 756 etc. Budget up to maybe 2.5k tops.

    I'd like to have a look at a few different models in the flesh, are there any dealers who would have a stock of pre-owned watches in the Leeds / Sheffield area?

    Or is it better to look at new models then buy of SC?

    cheers

    Andy

    Try Parkers in Sheffield.

    I`ve never dealt with them but they will probably have a decent selection for you to look at so you can narrow your choice down.

    Prices seem on the high side, but it may be down to the quality / guarantee / service

    Parkers is a very ordinary, tiny jeweller's shop and the watches on their site are not on display, so I would suggest you ring first if there are some you'd like to see. On Ecclesall Rd there's UK Bullion that have a decent selection.

    That's really it AFAIK. Don't know about Leeds for used, nearest best by far is Blowers in Hull.

    Some good shops in Leeds and also over in Harrogate.

    But tbh you'd be paying more for the same watch bought on here.

    UK Bullion on Ecclesall Road in Sheffield usually have a good selection, ask for Gary or Anton.

    Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
