Thanks for the watch Simon, I love it and may end up keeping it for myself many thanks

I met Simon Whitelock (Watches of Westminster) today. He drove from London to Bury St. Edmunds (where I had to be) to meet me. He is IMHO a bit of an odd ball, but what should I expect from a man who builds motorcycles with strange (and large) numbers of cylinders (http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/vehicle-engine-with-the-most-cylinders) and deals in second hand watches? He brought with him both the Moritz Grossmann in which I was interested, and the GO Karree which I expressed a wish to see. Both watches were exactly as described on his web site. The GO did not do it for me, but the MG did. I gave him a bag plentifully stuffed with her majesty’s IOUs (fewer though than his asking price), and he gave me a rather nice timepiece complete with all original packaging and documentation, a receipt, and a guarantee card from his company. We then enjoyed a pleasant (if non- alcoholic) lunch together  —  my treat, as I had offered for his willingness to travel to my “patch”.

Hi Simon

Heres the review;

I was looking to sell my Omega Seamaster but was extremely dubious about selling online. I found Watches of Westminster website and contacted Simon, he was very helpful and put my mind to rest as I needed to Send my watch through the post as dont live anywhere near London. I sent my watch and the next day Simon Messaged to say he had received it and all was good and requested bank details and Money was sent straight away. I would Highly recommend Simon to anyone with similar worries about about selling or buying.

Hi Simon I received the Tudor Ok and all is well thanks for your cooperation and speedy delivery. Best regards. James

“I received the parcel finally this morning.  It took longer than expected as the DHL operation in the US was very inefficient and uncoordinated.  But, at the end it all worked out. I have not had time to check the watch thoroughly yet, but a quick look at it indicates it is just as you described and everything (outer box, inner box, manuals, the certificate, spare croco strap, and tag) looks fine.  It is indeed much more beautiful than the pic shows. The Chopard Monaco is a beautiful watch and easy to wear as its color is rather discreet.  Thank you again for a great transaction and for offering such a nice piece .”   Regarding the sale of a Chopard Mille Miglia Prix de Monaco Historique watch.

“Thanks and very happy with the acquisition.  Your service and communication has been great – a truly seamless transaction.  FYI I have already put a jubilee bracelet on it as I think it gives a more vintage look to the piece”. This related to a client who purchased a Rolex GMT Master 11 “Fat Lady” 1987.  

“I got the watch OMEGA SAS this afternoon coming back from the office. Everything is OK so far.   I almost had an heart attack. The DHL box was not sealed. I opened the first box inside and the Omega red box was empty.   Then I opened the smaller box and everything was there in the little plastic box; the watch and the cards.   Really, for a moment I felt lost.   Anyway thank you for you patience.   If you come across an Omega Seamaster “Special Forces Communicator” Limited Edition let me know ASAP. A friend of mine asked me for one.   Kind regards” Regarding the sale of an Omega Seamaster GMT Special Boat Services SAS 2010 (unused) watch

He comprado en Watches of Westminster un Jaeger Lecoultre Master Control Date en muy buen estado, completo de cajas y documentación y a un precio razonable. Aprovechando un fin de semana en Londres, Simon se acercó a mi hotel y pude ver el reloj en vivo. Posteriormente cerramos la compra por Internet y el envío llegó perfectamente embalado a mi casa en España. Vendedor recomendable”. Although I would publish it in spanish, this is a  tentative translation: “I bought a Jaeger Lecoultre Master Control Date in very good condition, complete with boxes and documentation and at a reasonable price. Taking advantage of a weekend in London, Simon came to my hotel and I could see the Jaeger live. Later we closed the purchase online and the shipment arrived perfectly packed at my home in Spain. Advisable seller”.

i receive your parcel.

All is correct.

A huge thank you to Simon for this amazing 1962 Rado Captain Cook. I was very happy with the trade and now will treasure this and add it to my growing collection. Keep an eye out on my http://www.watchbrothers.co.uk blog site for some amazing pictures and a review. I will definitely be keeping an eye on your stock for a future purchase.

My brother is an avid watch collector, and I was given a classic Breitling Navitimer. Needed the money and was looking for a genuine, reputable and reliable watch specialist. Was given a very good price. Got the postal package, packed it away and it was collected the next day. Excellent service and a better price than I expected!
