A Mayfair watch specialist is looking for a city-based charity to support both financially and with his own time.

Online sales of luxury watches have increased since Danny Shahid’s DWL shop in Burlington Arcade closed for lockdown and now he wants to give something back to the local community. Danny has more than 90,000 followers on Instagram and is also 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.”

Danny has more than 12 years’ experience in sourcing big name watches and is often asked for his expert opinion by fellow jewellers and retailers. There are usually more than one hundred luxury watches in stock at the DWL shop, most worth between £10,000 and £40,000 but some with a value of up to £200,000. The Burlington Arcade store is operating a strict Click & Collect service via bank transfer and appointment only, with pick-ups being carried out at a safe social distance.
