DANNY SHAHID OF DWL IS LOOKING FOR A LOCAL CHARITY TO SUPPORT

A few months ago, we showcased Diamond Watches London, a new luxury watch shop in Mayfair’s Burlington Arcade. Founder and watch specialist, Danny Shahid, is now looking for a local charity to support both financially and with his own time.

It comes as no surprise that Danny has seen an increase in online sales of luxury watches during the lockdown. With 90,000 Instagram followers, many of whom are watch enthusiasts, he had the perfect opportunity to take his business online when the shop had to close temporarily. Danny now wants to give something back to the local community and he is willing to help boost the chosen charity’s profile on social media.

Danny Shahid commented: “It’s been such a rough year for so many people and businesses and we are keen to hear from any local charities in need of support. Myself and the shop’s team are happy to get actively involved and also offer donations. There are still some weeks to go before the shop can fully reopen so I’d like to make good use of this time by offering help to a worthy cause.”

If you’re looking for a particular timepiece, or if you need an expert opinion, Danny is your guy. He has more than 12 years’ experience in sourcing big name watches. At any time, you can expect to see one hundred or so luxury watches in stock at the DWL shop, most worth £10,000 - £40,000, but some will boast a value of up to £200,000. A strict Click & Collect service via bank transfer and appointment only is available, with pick-ups being carried out at a safe social distance. 

Charities can be nominated or enter themselves for the chance of receiving support by emailing dan@diamondwatcheslondon.com
