Chris was extremely helpful and accomodating when agreeing to a deal for a recent pruchase. He was also able to organise very raid delivery to Brisbane, and I received the watch right on time. I highly recomment The Watch Gallery.

Have purchased about 4 Rolex watches from Chris over the last 20 years. He is easy to deal, very knowledgeable, has a great range of Rolex’s and other brand watches and is reasonably priced.

Made lots of requests for information through ebay and there online platform as I want to make a enquiry to purchase a watch and information but can't be even bothered to return messages and correspondence.
Strange business practices

Thanks to swiss watch gallery, when I was inquiring about GMT, Jasckon responded to me immediately and gave me a very good price. After learning that I was in Melbourne, he bought a plane ticket the next day and delivered the time piece to me. Shocking! Many thanks for his friendliness and professionalism. After that, I would strongly recommend looking for a Swiss watch gallery to buy a watch.

The customer service at this place is something you would expect from a wholesale center and not a retail shop. I actually regret spending money here and will never be back.

I had few trades done with Chris and he was professional all occasions and posted watches quite quickly. I am very satisfied with my watches and recommend to buy watches from here.

Great friendly and knowledgeable staff. Chris was more than accomodating and had a good laugh too. Will be coming back here for sure!

Came in store a couple of weeks ago to look at a new watch for myself,
was interested in spending quite a significant amount however upon entry I was met with blatantly judgemental yet, talkative (with eachother staff).
The people who work here lack basic customer service skills, I was better served in store at rolex than this company.
Shame they wouldn’t even let me try a watch on, because I would’ve bought it!

I have sold numerous watches to Chris and the team at The Watch Gallery over the years and I couldn't be happier with the level of professionalism and customer service I have received. As a victim of their own success, it is often busy with multiple customers within the relatively small shop space, however I have always felt extremely welcome and been able to try on a huge selection of watches across a large price range. I would absolutely recommend to any true watch enthusiast.

I bought a watch for my husband's birthday from the watch gallery website. Very good communication. Fast shipping and the watch is in excellent condition, like new. We are very happy with this purchase. Thank you so much!

I have been buying watches from Chris for over 15 years. My first, way back then, was beautiful Rolex submariner, which a have to this day and has never missed a beat. Since that time, I have bought two stunning Tag Heuer’s and exquisite Bvlgari. So, what set Chris apart form every other dealer? The last three I bought purely from seeing them on his website. The reason, Trust.
In all the years Chris has been a consummate professional. Hiss depth of knowledge is extraordinary, and his willingness to share that knowledge, unsurpassed by any others I have dealt with. He is also available anytime to talk about your purchases and gives you much time as you need to talk, customer service at its highest.
I have, on many occasions, called Chris for his advice, and not bought anything. But I am treated with genuine kindness, engagement, and humour. You are treated as more than just a customer.
If you are ever in the market for a quality guaranteed watch, I cannot recommend Chris highly enough, you will get the watch of your dreams and so much more.

Sent an enquiry to purchase a Tudor BB58 and received a very prompt response. The description of the piece underpromised and over delivered, a second hand watch in 'good condition' arrived with only the tiniest marks where the clasp touches the bracelet.

I purchased 2 watches from Chris. I found him to be very polite, knowledgeable and professional. His customer service was very good. I returned a few days later for a minor adjustment to one of my watches and Chris was very happy to make the adjustments for me. Excellent service. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend! Chris was a pleasure to deal with. I asked about getting a box for the vintage watch I purchased from Chris as I was gifting it as a present, and he went out of his way to make sure to find an appropriate box and even gave me options to choose from!
Great service! Thanks again

I have bought and sold a number of watches through them over the years.
The staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.

Chris the owner is always great for advice and a pleasure to do business with.

Dispatching interstate via courier was a seemless experience and done very professionally.

I can highly recommend them which is something
I don't do readily.

Front door is locked and the sales assistant is required to buzz me in. Sales assistant on the phone and can clearly see I was waiting out the front to be let in however didn’t acknowledge I was there. After standing there for ten minutes, I left.
Terrible service. A simple acknowledgment and signal to wait until you were off the phone would have went a long way. Do not recommend attending this store if that’s their attitude towards customers.

Fantastic Service with the best selection of pre owned watches in Melbourne. Chris took the time to come in over his holidays to sell a watch to me, very down to earth and transparent. Why would go anywhere else, would 100% recommend!

Fantastic service. Only looking for a watch strap which wasn't in stock so passed our business on to another supplier 2 doors down.

What a great place to satisfy your craving for a new (to you at least), high quality timepiece. And as you'd want in a high end, second hand watch dealer, great knowledge and integrity.

First time dealing with Chris, and honestly what a legend. Provides an excellent service, with an honest and approachable demeaner. His selection is probably the best in Australia if you are looking for something unique.

I brought interstate, and he guided me through the whole process, and I felt extremely comfortable. His communication was fantastic, especially considering he was on holidays.

Thanks very much.
