This will be our fourth year running as a finalist, and we have been lucky enough to receive two nominations. Last year, the ceremony was extra special as the awards show celebrated its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.retail-jeweller.com\/events\/breaking-news-uk-jewellery-awards-2022-winners-revealed-02-09-2022\/\">30th anniversary<\/a>. For 2023, the awards will take place at the Hilton London Metropole on 6th September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As one of the most anticipated events in the industry, the whole First Class Watches team is thrilled to receive recognition at this year\u2019s UK Jewellery Awards. Both retailers and brands look forward to the event, and with each year the competition gets tougher. Every category this year is full of deserving names that First Class Watches is honoured to share the shortlist with. This year, we are excited to be nominated for Watch Retailer of the Year and Omnichannel Retailer of the Year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-974x1024.jpg\" alt=\"First Class Watches Shortlisted For UK Jewellery Awards\" class=\"wp-image-51446\" width=\"275\" height=\"290\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-974x1024.jpg 974w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-285x300.jpg 285w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-768x808.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-1460x1536.jpg 1460w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-1947x2048.jpg 1947w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-1110x1167.jpg 1110w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-930x978.jpg 930w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-750x789.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-510x536.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-360x379.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-300x316.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/RJ-UKJA-Finalist-Logo2023-Centre_black-transparent-with-BETTS-120x126.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 275px) 100vw, 275px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, we are very pleased that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jamesmoorejewellers.co.uk\/\">James Moore Jewellers<\/a> has also received a nomination. The shop has earned a finalist position in this year&#8217;s Jewellery Retailer of the Year category. James Moore Jewellers has been central to the development of First Class Watches. The two companies have grown and continued to evolve alongside each other. Over the years, James Moore has consistently provided excellent service and quality products to its customers. In 2021, the Kenilworth-based shop celebrated its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/2021\/12\/james-moore-jewellers-25th-anniversary\/\">25th anniversary<\/a> and hosted an event that raised \u00a31000 for charity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All three of these nominations are a huge achievement for both First Class Watches and James Moore Jewellers. The UK Jewellery Awards are very reputable in the industry as the UK\u2019s longest-running jewellery and watch trade awards. It is therefore a great privilege for both First Class Watches and James Moore to be a part of them this year. Both teams are overjoyed and cannot wait to celebrate with the rest of the industry in September.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here at First Class Watches, we are delighted to announce that we are shortlisted for the UK Jewellery Awards 2023.
