    The narrower a man’s mind, the broader his statements.

    I don't think any in Dublin do, but Lunn's in Belfast do. Dawson Jewellers, while not an AD, take trade-ins and all their new pieces come with AD stamped papers.

    Banks Lyon (also in the UK) do too. They will also sell over the Internet.

    many ADs do, but it's just a simple way to lose loads of money.
    I have enquired Banks Lyon / Watchfinder / Blowers and that shop in the Powerscourt shopping centre re: trading some of my watches for something else and the offers I got were often 40% lower than the market value. I understand they have to earn some money and they also take the risk in case they do not manage to sell the traded watch, but I don't like to lose hundreds (or thousand) of euro like that.
    Therefore, unless you are in a rush or you don't care about money, if I was you I would rather sell my watch on some internet fora or privately and invest the money in the watch I like ... and get a discount too.
