What are you rockin’ today?
New and pre-owned watches from a £50 Casio to a £4,000 Rolex. Trade in what you wear, top up, move up. Watch art on the walls, cufflinks and ties by the counter, and repairs done on our own bench.
Brands we buy, sell and trade
New watches from the brands we stock, and pre-owned and vintage pieces across many more, all checked on our bench. Pick a price band, a style or a condition.
Rockin Watches is an independent retailer. Where we sell a brand new, we are its appointed stockist; otherwise brand names describe pre-owned and vintage watches we buy and sell, and we are not affiliated with those brands. Pictures show each brand’s typical style; they are not the individual watches for sale, which we photograph ourselves as stock lands.
Trade in. Top up. Move up.
Most people don’t buy their dream watch first. Start where you are and climb one rung at a time. When you want what’s above our stock, we find it for you.
- Bring in what you wearAny brand, any age, working or not. Box and papers help, but aren’t essential.
- Get an honest trade-in priceWe look it over on the bench in front of you and explain the number.
- Choose your next oneYour trade-in value comes straight off the price. Top up the difference.
- Come back and go againWear it, enjoy it, and when you’re ready, trade it back in against the next rung.
Watch values go down as well as up. We’ll give you a fair, straight trade-in price, not a promise about the future.
Art for people who look closely
Originals and signed prints from named artists, hung on the shop walls and changed every month. Every piece comes with the artist’s name and the edition.
Illustrated
Watercolour, pencil and technical sketches of watches and movements. Our core range.
Movement studies
Close-up paintings of the gears, jewels and springs inside a watch.
Street & pop
Loud, splattered statement pieces for the wall that needs one.
Your watch, painted
Commission a portrait of your own watch from one of our artists. A proper gift, and a good way to mark a trade-up.
Finish the look
The things that go with a good watch, chosen to sit alongside it. Men’s first, with jewellery and women’s watches in the case too.
Cufflinks
Classic, novelty and watch-movement cufflinks. Boxed for gifting.
Ties
Silk and knitted ties, pocket squares and tie bars.
Straps & bracelets
Leather, rubber, NATO and steel. Fitted while you wait.
Boxes, rolls & winders
Somewhere proper to keep the collection.
A watch, cufflinks and a tie, boxed together. Tell us the budget and we’ll put it together.
