Watches of Switzerland has launched a showroom at Manchester Royal Exchange, offering two floors of the world’s most premium watch brands, as the shopping centre proves to be a major draw for high-end brands in Northern England.

Located at 9-11 St. Ann’s Square, the boutique showcases fine pieces from Hublot, Zenith, IWC and Jaeger-LeCoultre, and includes specially branded areas for Patek Philippe Omega and TAG Heuer.

Customers can also access a repair service in store, with a team of in-house watchmakers available to do a variety of services, from replacing a worn out strap to repairing a damaged watch.

The accessories company is the latest brand to open at Manchester Royal Exchange following premium menswear retailer Lanigan & Hulme.

The shopping centre has also recently signed a deal to bring back high street fashion chain French Connection back to the city centre.

Watches of Switzerland has 15 showrooms across the UK, including dedicated Rolex and Jaeger-LeCoultre boutiques.
