“We have a vast portfolio of Pre‑Owned watches, so you’ll always find something of interest”
Robin Greenwood
Head of Pre-owned
Quality Assured
Every watch in the Mappin & Webb Certified Pre-Owned collection undergoes a meticulous five-point inspection by our expert watchmakers
01 Full Authenticity Assessment
The watchmaker will first verify the watch’s authenticity by cross-referencing its serial numbers with the brand’s official information. Our experts also confirm authenticity through meticulous scrutiny checks.
02 Diagnostic Test
The watchmaker will assess the watch aesthetically, identifying any parts that may need replacement. They will then disassemble the watch to check its internal functionality and diagnose any operational issues.
03 Time Regulation Test
The watchmaker will test the timekeeping accuracy of the watch and conduct a full power-reserve test. They will make any adjustments to the internal mechanisms to correct deviations in timekeeping.
04 Water-resistance Test
The expert watchmaker will test the water resistance of the glass, crown and back seals. Necessary repairs or replacements will be made, based on the results of these tests.
05 Ultrasonic Clean And Polish
Each component is meticulously disassembled for ultrasonic cleaning. The parts are then relubricated and reassembled. Finally, the case and bracelet are sent to our refinishing department for polishing.
“Our team know which pieces we should make look as good as new, and which should keep their vintage appeal”

Certified Pre-Owned Watches at Mappin & Webb
Each of our certified pre-owned and used watches are carefully selected by a team of in-house experts to ensure that we can offer an exceptional selection of certified pre-owned timepieces, each with its own unique character.
To add to this element of individuality, a certified pre-owned watch over 20 years old will hold its value. The chances of you finding someone else with the same watch is highly unlikely which is what makes watches of this age so unique and special. In addition to their rarity, they are of an excellent quality. Our certified pre-owned watches are all reconditioned and serviced, if required, by the brands before arriving in our showrooms. For added peace of mind, your watch will also be brand-certified, fully warranted, and guaranteed for two years.
If you have any questions regarding our selection of pre-owned, luxury Swiss watches, please contact your nearest showroom for more details.
Let our in-house watch and jewellery experts guide you through your own personalised shopping experience from the comfort of your own home or office. Our hands-free co-browsing option allows you to sit back and chat with our experts as they do the browsing for you.
