About Bob's Watches

Our Story

Founded in 1999, Bob’s Watches was built around a simple idea: buying and selling a pre-owned luxury watch should be transparent. For over two decades, we’ve helped customers find their next timepiece or sell a watch they already own. Rolex has long been one of our specialties, and our selection also includes watches from OMEGA, Cartier, Tudor, Patek Philippe, and other respected watchmakers. 

Our team serves customers nationwide from Newport Beach, California, and Naples, Florida. Whether you are buying your first luxury watch, adding to a collection, or selling a piece you own, we aim to make the experience clear and personal.
