Pragnell to host watch buying and part-exchange event at Leicester showroom

Luxury jeweller and retailer Pragnell is hosting a two-day watch buying and part-exchange event at its Leicester showroom on Market Street on 24–25 July 2026.

The event will allow clients to have luxury watches valued, sold or traded against new or pre-owned models, with Pragnell’s team available to offer tailored recommendations based on individual preferences and collecting interests. The company’s jewellery specialists will provide professional valuations and advice across a range of luxury watches.

Pre-owned timepieces will receive a minimum two-year guarantee, with every pre-owned watch being fully serviced or restored by brand-authorised watchmakers. The event reflects the company’s commitment to serving collectors and first-time buyers.

The company also operates a Rolex-accredited service centre within its Leicester showroom, providing servicing, repairs and specialist restoration for heirloom and vintage timepieces. This expertise enables clients to receive guidance on any restoration or servicing work that may enhance its condition and value, as well as understand its value.

Pragnell is a British family-owned jeweller and watch retailer with a heritage spanning more than 170 years, positioning itself as a sixth-generation family business. The company has been historically linked to several jewellery houses, including Philip Antrobus, the firm associated with the design of Queen Elizabeth II’s engagement ring.
