How to Buy

Tempvs Watches offers individually described, pre-owned watches from our Hatton Garden showroom. A watch is available to buy only when its own product page shows it as available and an enabled checkout or an agreed direct purchase route is offered. Please confirm availability before travelling.

Luxury watch being handled and examined at Tempvs Watches

Three different listing types

Available / Retail: read the individual watch description for condition, service history where known, box, papers and the applicable commercial warranty. A 12-month Tempvs warranty applies only where the particular watch qualifies and is expressly confirmed.
Pre-Retail: authenticated watches offered at an earlier stage of our stock cycle, generally before routine cosmetic preparation or servicing unless the listing states otherwise. The photographs and condition notes matter: wear and mechanical or water-resistance status must be considered before purchase. There is no additional Tempvs 12-month commercial warranty. Your statutory consumer rights remain unchanged.
Sold Archive: historical examples previously sold by Tempvs, included for reference only. They cannot be ordered or purchased. You may enquire about sourcing a comparable watch.

Before you purchase

Review the actual watch photographs, stated condition, known faults or replacements, service information, timing measurements where available, included accessories, price, delivery arrangements and any specifically stated warranty. Timegrapher readings are snapshots, not proof of servicing or guarantees of future accuracy. Do not assume a vintage watch remains water resistant unless testing is expressly confirmed. Please ask us about anything material to your decision.

Payment

We accept the payment methods shown at checkout. Bank transfer and other agreed payment methods may be available for direct or in-person transactions, subject to confirmation. Payment is due in full by the agreed payment method at completion. Payment arrangements must be agreed before completion. We may request identification, proof of address, source-of-funds information or other documents where required by law, our payment providers or our internal policies; we may limit or refuse cash transactions.

Viewing and part exchange

Walk-ins are welcome at 36 Hatton Garden, London, EC1N 8EB, Monday–Friday 10:30 am–4:30 pm. We are closed Saturday and Sunday. To view a particular watch, contact us before travelling. We also consider part exchange, subject to inspection and agreement.

Delivery, returns and rights

Read our Shipping & Returns and After-Sales Policy before purchase. Online consumer transactions remain subject to applicable statutory cancellation and consumer rights regardless of whether the watch is Retail or Pre-Retail.
