A brief history of the engagement ring
The engagement ring dates back as far as the Anient Romans. Mostly cast from iron or ivory back then, gold rings were only affordable for the higher classes in society. Rings of this period were plain bands without stones. It wasn't until 1477 the first diamond was used in an engagement ring, for an Archduke of Austria.
With diamonds becoming more accessible in the Victorian era, new designs and stone shapes began to emerge. It wasn't until the late 1940's that diamond Engagement rings really gained popularity.
Diamonds are still a highly popular choice for pre owned engagement rings, but more gemstones and precious metals are on the rise. Choosing a ring with coloured gemstones is a great way to reflect your partner’s personality.

At H&T, we have several second hand engagement rings available in a wide variety of precious metals. We offer a range of diamond cuts, precious gemstones and price points for whatever suits your taste and budget. Whether you choose Gold, Silver or Platinum, new rings for sale are added regularly and the perfect ring is just waiting for you.

Solitaire Rings
One of the most popular types of engagement rings is the Solitaire diamond Ring. This classical ring features a single stone taking centre stage, flaunting the elegance of this design. This timeless style often features brilliant cut diamonds, with other shapes such as baguette and princess cuts offering a new look.
We also have a selection of Solitaire Rings with accent stones in stock today. The extra stones transform the Solitaire diamond Ring into a far more eye-catching and show-stopping engagement ring.
Trilogy Rings
The Trilogy ring provides a powerful meaning to your partner. Consisting of three stones, it symbolises the past, present, and future of a couple's relationship. This striking style began increasing in demand during the Victorian era, with the middle stone being the largest.
With diamonds being the norm for used engagement rings, the Trilogy ring has recently become more versatile. As times have changed, these rings also feature Rubies and Sapphires, fashioning a more tailored Trilogy ring for your partner.
Halo Rings
One of the more sought-after styles of pre-owned engagement rings is the Halo Ring. The Halo ring dates back to Georgian times and consists of a large centre stone with surrounding smaller pavé diamonds. These smaller stones help amplify the shine of the larger stone, increasing the wow factor for all to see.
Why choose second-hand Engagement Rings?
Buying a used gold engagement ring can offer some unexpected benefits when deciding on the perfect ring.
Pre-owned engagement rings are usually far cheaper to buy than brand new jewellery. You can still purchase rings with high-quality stones and craftsmanship second-hand, without breaking the bank.
Second-hand engagement rings are also a more sustainable choice. Mining for new materials used in jewellery has negative environmental impacts worldwide. Being kinder to the environment has never been so good.

The history of the Omega Speedmaster
The Speedmaster was launched in 1957, taking its name from a target market of sports and motor racing timekeeping.
But take off – literally – for the famous model would follow in the 1960s when the Speedmaster was chosen by NASA to adorn the wrists of astronauts exploring space.
A variety of makes and models were tested to extremes to gauge their suitability for spaceflight. The Speedmaster came out on top after being tested to its limits of temperature, pressure, humidity, shock and more.
This aspect of the model's history alone serves as the ultimate reminder of its enduring quality.
Selected as the official chronograph of NASA missions, perhaps the three most famous astronauts – Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Mike Collins – each wore an Omega Speedmaster in 1969 when they boarded the Apollo 11 mission and became the first men on the moon.
Aldrin's timepiece had the honour of being the first watch on the moon. Armstrong made his giant leap for mankind without his Omega Speedmaster which remained on board to replace a malfunctioning timer in the shuttle's cabin.
Speedmaster professional models ever since honour this space legacy with an engraving on the case which reads: "Flight-qualified by NASA in 1965 for all manned space missions. The first watch worn on the moon."
Why choose a used Omega Speedmaster?
An enduring icon
The Speedmaster's place in human history gives it a status that few models can match and will ensure it remains a desirable option for collectors for many years. If you're looking for something to elevate your own collection, a used Omega Speedmaster is a great option.
Accessible prices
A brand new Speedmaster in its classic Moonwatch design is likely to cost you over £5,000. While we stock some used Speedmasters at around half that price, you can also find rarer and more complex options for comparable prices.
Pioneering performance
Every watch we sell comes backed by a meticulous testing and cleaning programme to ensure your second-hand Omega Speedmaster is in top condition. When it comes to maintaining its condition, check out our guide to cleaning your watch so it keeps ticking along perfectly.
