Selling made simple
Watches of the Vale buys selected Rolex and luxury watches. Start with an online enquiry and we will review the details, discuss an initial assessment and confirm suitable inspection arrangements if your watch is of interest.
We aim to respond to complete enquiries within 24 hours. Any online valuation is an initial guide rather than a guaranteed purchase offer; final terms depend on the watch, inspection and agreement. You can also discuss part exchange against our current luxury watches.
Include brand, model, reference, condition, age, box, papers, service history and clear photographs.
The initial figure is based on the information supplied and current market conditions.
The watch may need to be physically inspected before a final offer is confirmed.
Accepted watches may be sold directly or used towards another available watch, subject to agreement.

Rolex specialism
Rolex is our main specialism. If you are considering selling your Rolex, send the reference, photographs and any details of its condition and history. We assess each watch individually using its specification and current market demand.
We consider models including the Submariner, Datejust, GMT-Master II, Daytona, Explorer, Oyster Perpetual, Sea-Dweller and Sky-Dweller. Suitability depends on the individual watch, and purchase is not guaranteed. Begin online to find out whether your Rolex is suitable for a direct sale or part exchange.
The reference, condition, originality, accessories and current market demand affect any assessment. If you are still weighing up your options, our valuation page explains what information to provide and what an initial estimate means.
