Watch Centre (watchcentre.com) at the top of Bond Street is pretty good. I have bought from them and their pricing seems a bit more reasonable than some in Burlington Arcade.
Watch Club in Royal Arcade round the corner from Burlington Arcade also has some interesting stuff but is not cheap. Watchfinder by Bank of England has a fair amount too but not dealt with them. These are all very high rent locations with prices to match.... Ian |

There's a great little shop in Clerkenwell which sells on my vintage watches, but it's very small and might be a little out of the way to visit. You are however very near Hatton Garden should you venture that side of town. Plenty of diamonds there's and a couple of vintage watches, not many though. Enjoy!
