The W.Bruford Difference
Our History

Trusted For Over 130 Years
Located in the heart of Eastbourne town centre since its founding in 1886, the original W. M. Bruford building was situated in Terminus Road. After becoming a victim of enemy action during World War II, the store was subsequently rebuilt in 1957 before moving in 1981 to Cornfield Road. Today, W.Bruford is still situated at the Cornfield Road location, home to our bridal and fine jewellery departments, alongside a second premises in The Beacon Centre. Offering new and existing clients an exclusive shopping experience, the new premises is home to a bespoke in-store Rolex showroom.
