King George II was still on the throne when James Gatwards first opened his doors for business in Hitchin in 1760 as a watch and clockmaker. Today Gatwards is in its 7th generation making it one of the oldest family jewellers in England.

Throughout its long history and changing times and fashions, Gatwards has remained a very personal business, paying great attention to detail and quality. We source the finest products worldwide to find the individual and unusual pieces our discerning clientele expect.

Although we specialise in fine gems and jewellery, both new and secondhand, we also offer a wide range of watches including Ebel, Omega, Longines, Raymond Weil, Armani, & Citizen. Our extensive giftware department stocks many unusual items to fulfill those difficult "gift" requirements and we are agants for Mont Blanc, Waterford, Staffordshire Enamels, Lladro, Mats Jonasson, Reuge Music Boxes etc.
