Jewellery and watch insurance

If you need to insure jewellery and watches worth £3,000 or more, our standalone insurance could be just what you need.

You don’t need to have your home insurance with us, and we can cover your jewellery and watches up to a total of £50,000.

We know sometimes covering your jewellery and watches under your home insurance isn't an option, which is why we offer higher cover for your individual items with our standalone insurance.

Want a quote? Call us on 0800 533 5276 .


Reasons to choose standalone Jewellery and Watch insurance:

Worldwide cover

Whether you’re at home, out and about or on holiday abroad, your valuables will be covered.

Our Jewellery and Watch insurance is open to everyone.

You don’t need to be an existing customer or take out any other Direct Line insurance policy.

Complete peace of mind

Your prized possessions, such as engagement rings and watches, will be insured against accidental damage, loss and theft.
