A superb service all round!

I purchased a watch from Ben at BQ watches. We spoke on Tuesday, I paid the same day and the watch duly arrived on Thursday as promised. The watch was a gift, so the timing was crucial! I wasn't disappointed! Superb customer service, a rarity these day! The large bar of chocolate was an additional bonus!

Getting the timing right matters, and I am glad we delivered. Your mention of our customer service means a lot to the team, and I am pleased the large bar of chocolate raised a smile. If you need anything at all, please just get in touch. And if any friends or family are looking for a watch, we would really appreciate you pointing them our way.
