About-Us
Our Story
In 1991, Seth Grossman launched Global Trading at the age of 16. The company specialized in collectible Swatch watches from the 1980s. After venturing into luxury timepieces, Seth founded Essential Watches in 2004. Since then, Seth and our team have worked tirelessly to build customer relationships across the globe. While we may have gone from trading Swatch to Patek Philippe, our personal commitment to each customer remains.
