About
An independent, considered approach to fine watches.
The Cotswold Jeweller helps people buy and sell fine watches through a personal, discreet service, based in Cirencester and meeting clients by appointment only.
“A fine watch deserves a conversation, not a sales pitch.”
Our story
A different way to buy and sell.
Buying or selling a fine watch is often personal. It might mean parting with something you’ve worn for years, or finally finding a piece you’ve wanted for a long time. Yet it can easily feel rushed, impersonal or opaque.
The Cotswold Jeweller was set up to offer something calmer: one point of contact, honest advice, and terms that are clear from the start. We don’t keep a shop or chase sales targets. Instead, we work closely with a small number of clients at a time, by email, by phone, and in person by appointment.
Whether you’re selling a watch or searching for one, our role is simple: to understand what matters to you, and to handle the rest with care.
What we stand by
Four simple principles.
Honest advice
We tell you what we think, including when a watch isn't right for you or when now isn't the time to sell.
Discretion
Your details, and your watch, are handled privately. Conversations stay between us.
No pressure
No shop floor and no targets. You set the pace, and you're never obliged to go ahead.
Clear terms
Any fee, commission or margin is explained plainly and agreed in writing before anything proceeds.
Meeting in person
By appointment, at a time that suits you.
There’s no shop to walk into. When it helps to meet, we arrange a private appointment in Cirencester or elsewhere in the Cotswolds, so a watch can be seen, handled and discussed properly.
Appointments are arranged individually once we’ve spoken, and the location is agreed with you in advance.
Have a watch in mind?
Whether you’re ready to sell, or simply curious what it might take to find a particular watch, start with a short enquiry. There’s no obligation.
