ABOUT US

Our story · Est. 2024 · United Kingdom

Ekiztas Collection is a UK curator of authentic vintage ladies' watches – rare Seikos, Gucci, Citizen, Rotary and Pulsar pieces from the 1970s to the 2000s, each one hand-picked, tested and given a second life.

Meet the founder

I'm Soner Ekiztas, founder and owner of Ekiztas Collection. My love for vintage watches began when I discovered the designs of vintage Seiko – especially the Seiko 1E20 and 2E20 models. I was instantly fascinated, and before long I was obsessed with the brand and its vintage catalogue. I started Ekiztas Collection in January 2024 while studying Economics at university, sourcing pieces, testing them and sharing them with a growing community on TikTok, Instagram and Pinterest.

After graduating in 2026, I took the business full time. Economics taught me to value transparency, fair pricing and long-term trust, and that's how I run Ekiztas: every watch is checked, honestly described and sent out as if it were going to a friend. When you buy from Ekiztas, you're buying directly from me – and I'm always happy to answer your questions personally.

How we choose every watch

Every piece is sourced from trusted local collectors and auctions here in the UK. We look for the designs that define vintage ladies' watches – slim gold bracelets, half-moon and tank cases, gem-set bezels and statement chain links – and only list a watch once it has passed our checks:

  • Authenticity – every watch is checked to make sure it is genuine.
  • Working order – tested for timekeeping, with a fresh battery fitted unless the listing says otherwise.
  • Honest condition – photographed in natural light, with any wear, fading or marks noted in the description.

One of one

Because every vintage watch is a single piece with its own past, no two listings are the same. Once a watch is sold, it's gone – which is exactly what makes finding the right one so special.

A more sustainable way to shop

Choosing a pre-owned watch means choosing something that already exists. By giving vintage timepieces a new home, we celebrate the craftsmanship of decades past while keeping our environmental footprint small.

The Ekiztas Half Moon

Alongside our vintage finds, we designed a watch of our own. The Ekiztas Half Moon is inspired by the iconic half-moon dress watches of the past, made from 316L stainless steel with a gold electroplated finish. Each one arrives in Ekiztas gift packaging with a 1-year limited warranty, and is made in very limited numbers.
