Watch Sales Ltd

• Les Montres de Reed (LMdR) is a business born from a genuine passion for watches. With a love for horology that has grown over many years, combined with a background in customer service, it felt like the right time to bring the two together and create LMdR.

   

  We focus on the things that matter to us as collectors and buyers ourselves. That means purchasing all of our own stock, taking a light and careful approach to polishing, and putting customer service at the centre of everything we do. From day one, our aim has simply been to do the basics but to do them exceptionally well.

   

  Our Farnborough headquarters, which opened in August 2022, is a thoughtfully designed, appointment-only space that allows us to focus entirely on your experience.

   

  LMdR is also supported by a strong company behind it: Mainspring Watches UK.

We offer a wide range of options for you to receive your new piece. Below are all the options, please get in touch with any questions. 

Collection.

It's always lovely to meet our customers, have a coffee, and talk watches, so why not collect? Collection is available via appointment only at our Farnborough HQ (GU14 7NA). We are able to facilitate Monday-Sunday appointments, please get in touch to book. 

Delivery.

Watch orders are sent via Royal Mail Special Delivery. All other orders are sent Royal Mail Tracked Signed For, with the option for Special Delivery at checkout. Please allow longer arrival times for watches over £1,500 due to the eBay Authenticity Program. If you have any questions about delivery or urgency, let us know, and we will work with you and your timeframes. 

International.

We use the eBay Global Shipping Program for any international orders. At checkout, eBay will add on the applicable charges. We don't charge for shipping costs, this is an eBay added cost rather than ours. 

We are incredibly fortunate to have a wonderful watchmaker, someone who takes great pride in their work. If you have a piece that is in need of a service or some care, below are the options we offer. 

Full Service: A full service on a non-complication watch (date only) is £399, taking 1-2 weeks for completion. A watch with a complication (chronograph for example) is £449, taking 1-2 weeks for completion. This excludes the price of a polish. 

Battery Replacement: Quartz battery replacement, including a deep clean of your watch. Costing £99, with a 1-2 week turnaround. 

Professional Clean: We can deep clean your watch, bringing that clean feel back but without the polish. This is a great option ahead of a potential sale. This costs £119 and has a 1 week turnaround time.
