Investment pieces
For collectors and for gifts that hold their worth. We help you choose pieces to keep, wear and pass on.
- Collectable references
- Gifting
- Advice, no pressure
- Part-exchange
Prices move with the market and depend on the exact piece, its condition and whether it comes with box and papers, so figures are always given directly rather than listed.

About
Grown in Hatton Garden, at home in Canary Wharf
The Kettle Group started in Hatton Garden, London's jewellery quarter, learning the trade where the trade lives. Today it runs from One Canada Square, dealing in luxury watches for people who would rather buy on a name they trust than a shop window.
It is a small, personal operation. When you message, you are talking to Oscar, and it is Oscar who sources the piece, agrees the number and hands it over. That is why the reviews keep using the same word: trustworthy.

Good to know
Questions we are asked
Not a high-street shop. The Kettle Group is a dealer, and viewings are arranged one to one by appointment at One Canada Square in Canary Wharf. Message or call first and we will set a time. Much of the buying and selling is also done remotely, over WhatsApp, with pieces couriered fully insured.
Yes, that is the heart of what we do. Send the make, model and reference, and any preferences on dial, size or box and papers. Using contacts built up over years in the trade, the right example is usually located within 24 hours, with a clear price before you commit to anything.
Two ways. We can buy it from you outright for a fair, straight figure, or take it on consignment: we agree a price you are happy with, pass on every offer as it comes, and pay you instantly once it sells. Either way it is discreet and safe. Send a photo and the details to start.
Luxury pre-owned watches, with Rolex the most requested. If there is a particular reference you are after, ask, and if we cannot source it we will tell you plainly. The Kettle Group is an independent dealer and is not affiliated with, or an authorised dealer of, any watch brand.
