With the global political landscape constantly shifting, 2025 has already proven to be a rollercoaster year for the financial markets. Among this turbulence, gold has soared to all-time highs, driven by its status as a safe haven asset and due to strong demand from central banks supporting their currency reserves.
So, What’s Next?
Will gold continue its climb—or could we see a dramatic dip, as we did in 2013 when gold dramatically fell 30%?
Truthfully, no one knows. But major financial institutions like Goldman Sachs have predicted that gold could reach £2,800/oz by the end of 2025 and climb to £3,000 by mid-2026. Currently trading around £2,400/oz, most analysts agree: gold’s record-breaking value could be here to stay.
That makes now a great time to either buy or sell gold depending on what best suits your financial needs.
Make The Most Of This Golden Summer…
The sun is shining, Wimbledon is in full swing, and the summer holidays are back in style. Our Foreign Exchange departments are busy helping customers prepare for their getaways, with strong demand for Euros, Dollars, and Lira due to our exceptionally competitive rates.
It’s not only holiday money people are after—gold is trading just as fast.
Many customers are taking advantage of high prices by selling unwanted gold jewellery, chains, and rings—and discovering just how valuable those old pieces can be. Even if you only have a few grams of scrap gold you will be surprised just how much it is worth.
Others are turning to instant loans, using gold, watches, and jewellery as collateral with our pawnbroking serivce. With rising living costs and mortgage rates, Christopher Brown Jewellers offers a smart and stress-free way to access cash—with no credit checks required.
Cash In On Gold Today
With scrap gold prices near record highs, we’re paying top prices for both scrap and resalable jewellery. Even broken items can be surprisingly valuable. Gold is also back in fashion, with younger generations embracing the trend of layering up on gold chains and rings.
To meet this growing demand, we’ve launched a stylish new gold-plated silver range—the perfect way to add a little summer sparkle without breaking the bank.
But for those looking for the best value pre-owned jewellery offers savings of up to 50% off compared to new equivalent. We have one of the largest ranges of pre-owned jewellery in Yorkshire so call in today to see what you might find.
Is Now The Time To Invest In A Rolex?
Over the past two years, prices for pre-owned Rolex watches have stabilised—some models even dipped slightly—but signs point to a gentle upward trend returning. While post-Brexit duty-free changes and geopolitical shifts have impacted demand, Rolex values have still risen 28% on average over the last five years.
With the market steadying, now could be the perfect time to invest. We’ve seen a sharp increase in Rolex activity over the past month—and for good reason.
All of our pre-owned luxury watches come with:
• A 2-year warranty
• Full servicing by Rolex-qualified engineers
• Comprehensive refurbishment
Buying a watch is like buying a car—you need a trusted dealer. With so many counterfeits out there, don’t take risks online or from unverified sellers. At Christopher Brown Jewellers, your watch is 100% genuine, expertly serviced, and fully backed by our name.
We also service all major luxury brands including Cartier, Omega, TAG Heuer, and Breitling. Visit your nearest branch for a free evaluation and quote.
