About Us
The Mecca has been at the heart of Derby City Centre for nearly 100 years selling watches, clocks and jewellery, and Catholic products.
Michael Doyle Senior took over The Mecca in 1925. He was from a family of jewellers and watchmakers and soon became a well-known face in Derby.
His wife Katie Doyle took over the business and in the 1930s started selling goods for the catholic community in Derby.
In 1951 Michael Doyle Junior took over the business and continues the tradition to this day with daughter Linda. Heading for 100 years as a family business this website is a new venture.
Be patient with us - we are still learning but we will soon showcase an eclectic mix of jewellery, watches, clocks and Catholic items for delivery or collection
