past2presentwatches Avis 202

The watch I purchased was accurately displayed on the website, a couple of questions were answered clearly, the watch arrived nery quickly, well packaged and presented and I am delighted with it. I have no hesitation in recommending past2presentwatches to anyone interested in vintage watches.

Bought a lovely watch from Past2Present. After almost a year, all of sudden my watch was having issues keeping time. Reached out to Steve and sent the watch in for repair. My watch was returned within 48 hours and running perfectly. I will definitely buy again. Communication was great! Thanks again.

I'm not sure what went on with a sale i purchased from him on his ebay site due to a bit of FOMO.
Quickly contacted the seller directly through their website and came to a decent deal (had been previously talking to the seller directly anyway, I just missed this particular watch despite him saying he'd let me know if any come in that would be of interest)
Anyway, we agreed to cancel the sale on ebay and I would pay direct when the site loads the watch back online for sale but I've waited 2 days now, and the seller is ignoring calls or emails. I don't care if he sold it in the middle of the cancelling and updating the site. It's just common courtesy for him to let me know... It's a poor move, but I'd rather he let me know than ghost me... I'm not going to beg him to sell me a watch.

Up until that moment, he was great and communication was excellent. But now... it's non existent and clearly lacks some integrity so he'll be getting 1 star.

In response to your reply. I did not say anything about giving negative feedback so can you explain why you're not being honest?
We clearly agreed, and I have email proof that you said to wait until the item updates on your site and you'd provide a discount code once it does. That was your last email to me! So please stop lying. See quote below

"Yes, I hear the order has been cancelled, It will take a little housekeeping our end as the order cancellation travels through the systems.

I will complete everything in the morning and organise the listing for you. I will be in touch tomorrow." Sent 31/08/25. Your last email

It’s very difficult buying older watches on-line because there is such a vast array of quality out there. So you have to do your research properly and then find a seller you are confident to buy from.
Past2presentwatches made it easy for a number of reasons:
Firstly a very good website with a chat function where all my follow up questions were addressed promptly and with a wealth of knowledge.
Secondly, no hard sell or gimmicks.
Third, and most importantly, a year warranty on the movement - which is a nice touch on watches that can be well over 50years old- which showed me I was dealing with a Company that backs their ability and product.
Finally, a return policy - which I didn’t need and did not expect to need by the time I had decided on my purchase.
Always do your research when buying vintage watches, but with that in mind I can highly recommend Past2presentwatches. I will certainly have them in mind for future purchases.

Amazing customer service, great quality watch and packaging.

Amazing service from Steve,

2 watches I’ve purchased from them have been fantastic. Had one small issue with one, returned under warranty, was fixed and sent back to me the same day it arrived back with them!

Faultless customer care.

P2P were a pleasure to do business with. All my questions were answered promptly and accurately with no pressure or silly discounts (red flag). Website provides clear descriptions and pictures and delivery service is prompt with great packaging and lovely presentation. I can highly recommend and will definitely follow P2P and likely do future business.

This is a present for my grandson and I know he will love it excellent quality can't wait to see his face on his birthday

Lovely watch exactly as described, well packaged and delivered quickly.

I recently purchased a lovely vintage Seiko and the service from past2presentwatches was brilliant. Watch arrived very quickly in great condition. 5* and would use again.

Another great watch described exactly

Brilliant seller! Super helpful and postage was very fast, would highly recommend!

Excellent looking watch. Looks like new. Just like it's pictures. Ordered one day and came the next day. Well packaged.

Excellent work.
Very good communication.

Beautiful watch bought for my husbands 50th birthday. I'm sure he's going to love it. Thank you.

I continue to buy Seikos. Just got a great Presmatic. Very happy with watch and service. You won’t regret buying from here.

The watch arrived the day after I made payment. It was beautifully packaged and presented and the watch itself is outstanding. I would not hesitate to recommend this company.

Once again, a top notch performance from Past2present.
Considered, objective communication when I initially contacted the team to enquire about the watch that had caught my eye (Lordmatic Weekdater) and how it would fit in my collection.
Having decided to buy, the watch was dispatched promptly and arrived the next day, beautifully presented as usual.
A small problem arose when I started wearing my watch - not uncommon with vintage pieces - and this is where I think it is so important to buy from a quality dealer who is also a watchmaker. P2P immediately arranged a return, rectified the problem (keeping me fully informed of the diagnosis and repair), and had the watch back on my wrist within 48hrs. Outstanding.
This is my fourth purchase from P2P and I can find no reason to change my previous 5 star rating!

I took delivery of my first watch purchased from past2present this morning - a present for my son's 30th birthday and WOW what a first class experience. Delivery 24hrs after ordering, beautifully packaged and with a simple hand written letter of thanks, such a small thing but so powerful & perfectly sums up my experience. Oh and there was the watch of course, a beautiful 1971 King Seiko... WOW, WOW, WOW, I was blown away by the quality that had gone into the presentation of a 54yr old watch, it is absolutely beautiful and was a real struggle to hand over to my son (I want one). He also loved it as much as I did.
Thank you so much, this will definitely be the beginning of a long relationship.
