When every second counts
Founded in 1966, J. Farren Price has long been part of Adelaide’s luxury watch landscape. Today, the business has been reimagined in partnership with Vintage Watch Co. — bringing together decades of experience in vintage, modern and collectible Swiss watches.
Located within the historic Adelaide Arcade, J. Farren Price specialises in buying, selling, trading and servicing carefully curated Swiss watches, with a focus on authenticity, quality and long-term customer relationships.
We are active buyers of vintage and modern Swiss watches and offer a discreet, transparent and straightforward process for clients looking to sell or trade their watches. Whether it is a single watch or an entire collection, our experienced team can assist with valuations, sourcing and acquisition advice.
Our collection regularly includes watches from brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, Omega, Audemars Piguet, Cartier and IWC, alongside a constantly changing range of vintage and collectible pieces.
Backed by the expertise of Vintage Watch Co., every watch is carefully inspected and supported by a 24-month guarantee, with a strong emphasis placed on originality, condition and provenance.
Whether you are purchasing your first Swiss watch, adding to a serious collection, selling a treasured piece or searching for something specific, J. Farren Price offers knowledgeable, personalised service grounded in decades of industry experience.
