'Top quality' £1.5k Debenhams watch reduced by 84% leaves people 'speechless'
Shoppers have shared glowing reviews for the watch that usually costs as much as £1,500
Debenhams shoppers can get their hands on a "timeless" watch that's been dramatically reduced in price. The "classy" watch's design has been described as "perfect", with reviews suggesting it can work for both casual and formal settings.
Debenhams says the STÜHRLING Original Regatta Automatic 42mm Diver Watch brings not only style but also "unparalleled comfort" to your wrist with an easily adjustable stainless steel link bracelet. Many have praised this timepiece for its "classic look," which has led to it receiving "a lot of compliments."
It comes in a choice of two colours - either black or blue. Both have the same major discount applied, making this little slice of 'luxury' a bit more affordable for Debenhams shoppers.
Shoppers can get this 'impressive' watch for a fraction of its usual value. This 'top-selling' men's watch is usually worth £1,500 but is discounted by 84% online to a little under £239.
People were quick to share their thoughts online. On Debenhams' website, one person said: "Brilliant design, can be easily adjusted to fit perfectly. Looks absolutely stunning on the wrist."
A second said: "Love it, very very nice, fast delivery, and a quality time piece." A third put: "Very pleased with quality and finish of the watch. It is a very nice watch, but shipping could have been a little quicker. Overall very pleased with my purchase."
A fourth said: "Fantastic watch. I bought it for my grandson's 16th birthday. I was going to save for his 18th, but because of personal health reasons, I decided he would get it earlier. So glad I did. I will never forget the look on his face, and he was speechless."
But, not everyone was happy with their purchase. One shopper claimed: "Watch has stopped working after 2days going to have to get a new battery fitted not good." Another said: "Watch looks cool but not big as it is in picture. Stop working after 2 weeks later." If you want to check out more reviews, there are plenty available on the official STÜHRLING website.
If you are looking for an alternative, there are plenty of stores with great deals on at the moment. Amazon has a selection of designer watches that you can order online and have delivered to your door within days. The Invicta Pro Diver 26970 Men's Quartz Watch looks very similar to the Debenhams option —and it's under £60.
For another budget-friendly alternative, consider one of the many watches stocked by Next. Shoppers could get their chosen timepiece delivered or made available for pickup in store. This Sekonda Mens Midnight 44mm Analogue Silver Tone Watch costs £50.

Once-thriving Debenhams store loved in the 90s to be transformed into cinema, gym & hundreds of homes
A DEBENHAMS that was once a bustling shopping hub is set to be transformed into a co-living space. The former store is set to be demolished and replaced by a ten-storey block with a cinema, gym and podcast studio. 2 Similar to student halls, the plan submitted to Chelmsford City Council envisages 181 single-occupancy rooms. If approved, each room will have a bed, kitchenette and an ensuite bathroom. They will also have a wardrobe, desk and storage. The communal spaces will contain facilities like a lounge, co-working space, event space, a gym, cinema and podcast studio. The shared areas will be available to the public on an invite-only basis. The vision for the development is to provide young professionals with affordable living spaces. Co-living housing is a new concept that is defined by a large-scale purpose-built shared accommodation. In cities, there has been a rise in single people and couples living in warehouses and large disused buildings for cheap rent. Savills have said that co-living schemes are a way to tackle the cripling housing crisis by "offering shared affordable, high quality accommodation, predominantly for 18 to 40-year-olds, with fully furnished private living units, communal areas and often flexible working space'. A planning statement said: 'The site sits in a primary location within the Chelmsford City Centre, opposite the River Chelmer and within walking distance to Chelmsford High Street, and to both Chelmsford train station and bus station. It was formerly in use as the servicing block to the adjacent Debenhams department store. "However, it is now redundant with limited scope for it to be brought back into use for retail servicing. "On this basis, it presents as a highly sustainable brownfield site with substantial scope to enhance and contribute towards the wider strategic goals of Chelmsford." This comes after another former Debenhams was given a new lease of life as an entertainment venue. After the business went into administration in 2020, hundreds of the huge department stores were left empty on UK high streets. Now, one of the abandoned stores has been completely transformed into the ultimate entertainment space. The Debenhams in Midsummer Place, Milton Keynes has been revamped by entertainment company Lane 7. The 40,000 square foot space has been kitted out with a bowling alley, roller skating rink, golf simulators, bumper cars, pool tables and a gaming experience. Lane 7's Luke Harvey said: "The culture of what people want from their nights out has changed a lot recently, the shift from being a drinking culture has stopped a little bit, especially for 18-24 year olds. "People want a little more from their nights out; they don't necessarily want to go to a nightclub anymore. "They want something fun and something they can do with a range of different friends and families." Since opening in March, the venue has seen about 2,300 visitors on its busiest days which are usually Friday nights and evenings. The entertainment company has taken over the ground floor, while Sports Direct occupies the upper floors. Although shoppers can still buy from Debenhams online, all of its 124 beloved high street stores closed down because of falling profits and rising debt. The financial problems were triggered by a combination of consumers moving online, as well as Covid lockdowns which stalled profits. Across the country, councils and developers have been repurposing former Debenhams stores. One in Northampton was demolished and replaced by student housing in October 2024, a fate that will follow for the two other stores left in the city. 2

Shoppers 'love' Debenhams £2,500 watch slashed down to £300 in sale
'Hands down my favorite daily wear.' A watch is a staple piece of everyone's accessory collection as it can be both practical and elegant. While many people seem to favour a smart watch for everyday wear, due to its step tracking features and notifications, many of us still reach for a traditional analogue watch for a social event. Now while traditional watches can be expensive if you are looking for a higher quality, Debenhams has done us all a favour by giving a variety of luxury timepieces major discounts - some getting drops as big as 80 and 90 per cent. One such watch included in the sale is the STÜHRLING Original Radiance Diver Watch. Normally retailing for a whopping £2,495, shoppers can now grab this watch for £300, saving shoppers over £2,100 on their purchase. The timeless Radiance Watch is said to make 'just enough of a statement' as it features an elegant profile and a rich dial that 'pops'. With a rotating bezel and bold lugs, this watch is said to speak to those with a 'masculine and adventurous sense of style'. Powered by a Swiss automatic movement to keep its wearer on track, the watch also boasts a well-placed day of the month window at the three o'clock hour marker. For extra reliability, this watch also features a screw-down crown for an air-tight and sleek seal. Completed with an oyster-style stainless steel bracelet, this watch also boasts a water resistance of 200m, making it the prime timepiece to take on your next adventure. Shoppers have the choice of a black dial with either a black or blue bezel, but it should be noted that at the time of writing there were only eight of the blue edition left in stock. STÜHRLING Original Radiance Diver Watch £2,495 £300 Debenhams Buy now Product Description For those looking for something a bit cheaper, Debenhams has also slashed the price of the STÜHRLING Original Forte 3953 Quartz Watch. Usually retailing for £570, watch lovers can now snap up either the blue or black dialled editions of this watch for £74.25. Over on Beaverbrooks, shoppers can snap up the BOSS Tyler 43mm Stainless Steel Men's Watch for £40 less. Normally retailing for £199, shoppers can either buy the all-black edition or the blue dial and silver bracelet watch for £159. Back to the Radiance Watch, it currently doesn't have any reviews on the Debenhams website. However, it has been able to garner a near perfect rating over on the Stuhrling website. One happy five-star reviewer simply wrote: "Love this watch! Hands down my favorite daily wear." With another shopper adding: "Happy owner. Very satisfied owner of three time pieces. When I put them on, I feel great." However, one shopper left a three-star review, writing: "I am 50 years old and I have always liked watches. I have looked for a good watch that is consistent to my daily life and I know that I don't look good with a Rolex presiding. "So surfing the internet I found your brand and they seemed very well made and I said to myself, it's made in Switzerland, okay, I decided to buy it, it was easy. Fast, no. The shipment was delayed but when it arrived we opened the box with my son, and what a disappointment we were with the finishes of the watch. "I am talking about what it looks like aesthetically without talking about its movement, the disproportion of the size of the case with the bracelet, but the chrome and brushing of the case looks good." Despite this, the rest of the shoppers were highly complimentary, as one person said: "Simply the finest watch you will find at this price point, and on par with many watches at twice the price." A fifth shopper also praised: "I have to say that the quality of this watch is amazing. It's sturdy, has the right amount of shine, the movement is absolutely perfect, it feels good, balanced weight, and most impressively is the bezel and dials which glow. "I mean, I've never been happier with my purchase. This watch is special and makes me feel special. I highly recommend this if you're looking for a quality watch for yourself or as a gift."
