The Watch Hut Announces the Launch of its New Central London Store

    WEST MIDLANDS, ENGLAND, January 22, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The UK's largest watches website, the Watch Hut, has opened a new 'bricks and mortar' store in London's prestigious Covent Garden. The opening of the store, near to the Royal Opera House marks the first time that the brand has operated a store within the UK's capital city.

The new retail space, dedicated purely to designer and fashion watches, is located on Long Acre, and provides the perfect opportunity for both London's many visitors and locals to experience first-hand the company's friendly and efficient customer service as well as offering more than 120 of the world's favourite brands.

The opening of the new branch is a result of the popular watches retailer becoming part of the DM London Group. The Watch Hut branding will now encompass the designer and fashion watches offered by the enlarged company, both online at www.thewatchhut.co.uk, in-store and in a number of department store concessions throughout the United Kingdom.

Brands available from the company include popular ranges such as Casio, Citizen, Gucci, Tag Heuer and Tissot. A number of new brands including Chanel, Nixon and Toy watches will launch both in-store and online over the coming weeks expanding the existing line.

The Watch Hut is a leading expert in online watch retailing with an unparalleled reputation in the designer and fashion segments of the timepiece market. Since its foundation in November 2005, the Watch Hut has grown to become Britain's largest website in the sector. Originally set up by Midlands-based jeweller TH Baker, DM London acquired the website in January 2012.

In addition to its newly acquired designer-led retailer, DM London will continue to operate The Watch Gallery. The store based in Fulham Road and its online counterpart will offer a destination for luxury watch buyers.
