Empire Watches - any experience?

kharv, 24 September, 2012 at 13:39 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 4

I'm thinking of getting Hubs this watch for his 30th in January.

In John Lewis and Beaverbrooks it is £295 however from Empire Watches is £215. £80 is a pretty hefty saving that I could put towards something else like a nice meal out.

Does anyone have any experience with this site? They have an eBay outlet too that has over 10,000 mainly positive feedback. They also give 2 year warranty as standard.

What do you think? Or should I be buying in person at a well known shop?

    I have never heard of them, sorry Kharv.

    As an aside, I used to work with a man who was part of the Tissot family. He was forever playing pocket billiards and for that reason I would never buy a Tissot (or Tossit, as it came to be known) watch, which is a shame as they have a good rep and look nice.

    Just a thought - would JL match the Empire price? Never knowingly undersold and all that...

    Hahahaha! Brilliant.

    Yeah they seem to have one of the best reputations for the £300 mark type watch. And I do like the look of them.

    I actually prefer the above watch with a blue face but I don't think H would.

    Ooh that's a good point. Might email them.

    I prefer the blue, too, but I think my husband would prefer the black. Simple and classic.
