History Of Goldsmiths

Goldsmiths is a business with more than 230 years of tradition and experience. Our first showroom opened in Newcastle in 1778 and there have been many notable achievements for Goldsmiths. We were the jewellers who made the Rugby League Trophy, and we were the UK's first appointed stockist of Rolex watches in 1919.

Today, Goldsmiths is the one of the leading quality jewellers in the UK with over 90 showrooms in every major town and city from Aberdeen to the south coast, as well as four in Northern Ireland selling fine jewellery and diamonds, including exclusive brands Jenny Packham and Mappin & Webb.

We also operate the largest distribution network for Rolex, Omega, TAG Heuer and many other reputable watch brands. The Goldsmiths Servicing & Repairs offer employs more watchmakers than any other UK High Street Retailer with onsite watchmakers available at a number of our stores.

Our online transactional website is seen as leading edge within the industry and we are proud to manage and run 16 mono boutiques on behalf of Omega, Breitling and Tag Heuer.

However, it all comes down to one thing: we love what we do, and it shows. Big or small, gold or silver. We love it all and our team is expertly trained to help you find and keep safe items you will treasure forever.
