The Gulf's watch marketplace

Fine watches, from dealers worth trusting.

Every dealer is reviewed before a single listing goes live. Search freely, message through the platform, and when you buy, the purchase is recorded in a written agreement and a condition report you both sign.

How it works

One marketplace, two sides. Buyers find the piece and speak to the person selling it; dealers publish their stock and answer buyers who already know what they want.

For buyers

Find it, then talk to the person selling it.

  1. Search the whole market

    Brand, reference, condition, papers and budget — across every verified dealer at once, in Arabic or English.

  2. Compare in the open

    Price, condition and what is included are stated on every listing, and every listing says whether a serial number is on file.

  3. Message the dealer

    Reach the seller directly in watchstartup. Find it yourself, and it’s commission-free. Find it through Request-a-Watch, and a small success fee applies.

Start searching

For dealers

List your stock. Hear from buyers who already know what they want.

  1. Get verified once

    Send your trade licence and business documents. A person on our team reviews them before your storefront opens.

  2. Publish your inventory

    Bilingual listings, a storefront under your own name, and photography shown at the size it deserves.

  3. Answer real enquiries

    Buyers arrive with the reference and the budget already in mind and message you on the platform. Enquiries are yours; we never resell them.

What “verified” means here

Verification is the product. A dealer is not listed because they signed up — they are listed because a person on our team read their paperwork and agreed.

See the verified dealers

  • Trade licence, checked by a person

    A valid commercial licence and the business documents behind it, matched against the name the storefront trades under.

  • A place you could walk into

    A physical shop or office, and a direct line to reach it — not a page and a phone number that stops answering.

  • Reviewed, and revocable

    Verification is a status, not a certificate. Reports are investigated, and a dealer who misrepresents a watch loses it.

  • Serial numbers confirmed in person

    Never listed online.

Not listed yet? Ask for it.

Describe the reference, the budget and the condition you would accept. Every approved dealer who deals in that brand sees your brief and can send you an offer.

Request a watch

Free to submit — dealers pay a small success fee, only on a match that leads to a sale.
