About The Pocket Watch Buyer

From the UK's trusted vintage watch specialist since 2016

Our Story

The Pocket Watch Buyer is operated by Time Rediscovered Ltd, a specialist horological company founded to bridge the gap between pocket watch owners and collectors. We recognized that many valuable timepieces were being undervalued or sold through lengthy auction processes that didn't serve either buyers or sellers well.

Our mission is simple: to provide fair, transparent valuations and quick, secure transactions for pocket watch owners across the UK.
