The Secondhand Jewellery & Watch auctions occur fortnightly and principally consist of leading brand name watches, gold, diamond and gem set Jewellery; a proportion of these sales are offered on behalf of Pawnbrokers. The number of lots in these auctions is approximately 3000-4000 and items include gold chains, gold bracelets, gold pendants, diamond rings and contemporary watches such as Omega, Brietling, Rolex, Longines and Cartier. |
Each auction has a part illustrated catalogue and the catalogue can also be viewed online. Fellows aim to fully illustrate the sales online and due to the number of lots images become available the weekend or a few days before the auction.
The Secondhand Jewellery & Watch auctions are coordinated by Karen Southam DGA and Katja Schoebel with support from the Antique and Modern Jewellery Valuers and the Watch Department.
