Luxury Watch Pawnbrokers

Apply online for a secure, quick pawn loan on your luxury Watch

Watch Pawnbrokers

More and more people are investing in luxury watches, drawn to them for their functionality, beauty, and history. Similar to the vintage car and furniture markets, the watch industry has seen an increase in the number of investors making money buying and selling watches, often at high-profile auctions. As a result, this makes watches one of the most popular items to pawn.

We lend against many luxury watch brands including Rolex, Tag Heuer, Patek Philippe, Cartier, Vacheron, Jaeger LeCoultre, Franck Muller, IWC, Omega, Breitling, Panerai, Audemars Piguet, and many more. We can help you gather some extra funds and unlock the value of your watch, helping you get the maximum amount with market-leading interest rates. We also offer services to pawn all types of jewellery.

Many pawnbrokers will offer to lend against your watch, however, they don’t offer the same services that we are uniquely positioned to provide. An established FCA regulated pawnbroker, we combine the specialist valuation expertise of auction houses and dealers with our custom developed pawnbroking software and  an experienced operations team. Our peer-to-peer lending platform confirms loans quickly and guarantees an easy and confidential transaction.

Valuing your Watch

The amount lent on each watch will depend on several factors, including:

  • You can often check this by looking at the serial number.
  • Whether you have the original documentation.
  • Whether you have the original packaging. 

Your Specialist Online Pawnbroker

Are you concerned about the interest rates and charges on pawn loans? Don’t worry. We operate differently to traditional pawnbrokers. We provide a simple and transparent online service, at an interest rate that is comparable to credit cards.

Instead of a shopfront, we have discreet offices based in the City of London. We use a simple online platform to process our loans, and then we pass the savings onto our borrowers, allowing us to offer the most competitive pawn loan interest rates. All you have to do is upload a picture of your item, describe it, apply for a loan, and you receive an indicative offer.

Borrowing against your watch is a simple and easy way to free up your funds – without letting go of your precious assets. Our loan terms are fair and transparent, and our small team is always at hand to answer any questions or discuss your loan.

How to Pawn your Watch

We provide a hassle-free process so you can quickly receive cash for your watch. You can apply for a pawn loan against your watch in three simple steps:

  • Step 1 – Upload photos of the watch that you wish to give as collateral. You will receive the loan offer within two hours.
  • Step 2 – Courier your watch to us using Royal Mail Special Delivery, or make an appointment to meet us in our discreet office in the City of London. If you choose to post your items, we will cover the insurance during transit.
  • Step 3 – Once the watch has been carefully assessed in person, all you need to do is accept your loan offer. The funds will then be in your account within minutes.

Is Borrowing Against a Watch Right for You?

You might not have used a pawnbroker before or may be unsure of the process. The traditional pawn shop image of a valuer sitting behind a counter in a high-street booth is far from the reality with us. There are a wide range of benefits to a pawn loan, some of which you might not have been aware of. So, if you are unsure about the idea of borrowing against a watch, here are the benefits:

No Tedious Paperwork – We know that your time is precious. That’s why our application process is online – quick and simple.

No Credit Checks – The security of a watch pawn loan does not depend on your financial history. As we are lending money against your assets, your credit score is not relevant to the decision to lend.

Spot-Free Credit Score – Even if you are unable to pay back the loan, your credit history will remain unaffected. We do not report any failure to repay loans and if you wish to walk away from the loan, we sell the assets and transfer the excess funds back to your account.

Easy Access – Receive 70% against the value of your watch simply by completing our hassle-free online application from the comfort of your home or office.

Discreet and Flexible – We understand that financial arrangements can require discretion.  We communicate only by email and phone with the named borrower, and we post items back in discreet unmarked packaging. Should you wish to make an appointment to meet us, we have an unbranded office in the City of London. We do not have a shop, so do not retail defaulted items.

Low-Interest Rates – We are committed to helping you get loans at the lowest possible rates. Our interest rates are less than half of what other high street lenders charge from borrowers.

To easily understand the interest rates we charge, we have prepared an indicative example of how they are calculated on pawn loans. If you have any questions about a loan, our small team is always at hand to help.

Representative Example: Total credit: £4000. Set-up fees: £120. Loan term of 6 months. Annual Interest rate: 40.2% (fixed). Interest for 6 months: £828.12. Amount repayable in one installment: £4,948.12. Representative APR: 53.0%.

Minimum APR: 18.8%. Maximum APR: 67.1%..

All loans are for a fixed term of 6 months. You can repay early at any time without penalty.

Risk Warning: If the loan is not repaid, the assets may be sold.
