Has anyone had any experience purchasing from www.thewristwatcher.co.uk

I mean it’s got some gems, but I can’t find anything about it (guess that should be my obvious answer, but worth a shot to hear people out)

Seems like a genuine dealer selling entry level watches at a slight profit. Still more expensive than they can all be found within a few weeks of searching but not as expensive as many UK dealers.

To be clear, this is my view after reading their site for 60 seconds. I’ve had no dealings with them.

IMO he lost (looses) with the brexit the EU-market.
That s a disadvantge for him and the other UK-seller.....sad, but for many the truth.

It's an unusual business model to focus only on the bottom tier. I guess he can buy them cheaply, but trying to sell less desirable watches is tedious and frustrating. And if he needs to invest anything into getting them running, there's no profit.

Being myself based in the EU, I now avoid UK sellers, unless I'm reasonably sure I can organize a day-trip to pick up the watch myself. That's reasonably easy if the seller is based in London. That suddenly becomes a little more logistically complex if the seller is located, say, in Manchester or Newcastle.
