Three men have been charged following the armed robbery of a luxury watch shop in London.

Six men with weapons, including machetes, stormed a Rolex store in Knightsbridge around 10.50am on Tuesday 20 January.

They threatened staff before leaving with several high-value watches, which sell for thousands of pounds, police said.

No injuries were reported.

The Met's Flying Squad launched an investigation, and three men were arrested in the early hours of Thursday.

Dean Dinan, 29, from Islington, north London, was charged with robbery, possession of a firearm, possession of ammunition and possession of criminal property.

Elliot Campbell, 31, also from Islington, was charged with robbery, possession of criminal property and possession of drugs.

And Dyllan Gowie, 27, from Tower Hamlets, was charged with robbery and possession of drugs.

At the time of the robbery, Detective Chief Inspector Scott Mather said: "This robbery was carried out in a busy part of London, and we understand the alarm it has caused."

He added: "Officers were on scene within minutes, and investigators are working at pace to piece together the offenders' movements. We are determined to find those involved and bring them to justice as swiftly as possible."
