ABOUT WoK
Originating from the antiques quarter of Portobello Road over 50 years ago, the family business has grown and evolved to find its niche in the watch industry – specialising in fine, rare & collectable timepieces.
Watches of Knightsbridge have a specialist knowledge & experience in the industry, led by father & son, Simon & Toby Sutton. Their knowledge & passion enables them to source timepieces & give advice to individuals & collectors from all over the world.
“WoK” auctions are conducted in a traditional way by auctioneer Edward Rising alongside live internet & telephone bidding.
WoK @ THE EMPTY QUARTER
January 2017 saw Watches of Knightsbridge present their second auction of Fine, Rare & Collectable Timepieces in the UAE. Held at The Empty Quarter Gallery in the DIFC district of Dubai, these auctions attracted the attention of a growing number of passionate vintage watch collectors in the UAE, and worldwide.
The Watch Register is the world’s largest private database of lost and stolen watches. The Watch Register provides Watches of Knightsbridge with a due diligence service for every catalogue. This involves searching all items with an upper estimate value of £1,000 and above against its watch database (www.thewatchregister.com) to determine whether any item has been reported stolen or subject to claim.
Watches of Knightsbridge exhibited for the sixth consecutive year at the Salon QP Fine Watch Exhibition 2016 held at the Saatchi Gallery in London.
