London is a major pre-owned watch hub. Watchfinder & Co was acquired by Richemont in 2018 — it operates as the de facto European secondary-market reference. Bonhams London has the deepest independent watchmakers + military watch catalog of any major auction house. VAT reclaim = significant savings for non-UK buyers.
