Room for young Swiss watchmaker in London

A Swiss friend has asked me if I knew anyone with a room to rent in London or surrounding area for her 21 year old son. He is a watchmaker for one of the leading watch making firms from CH, and will be working for their new shop opening in Mayfair - so any commute would have to keep location and access in mind. Any help would be very appreciated - any ideas anyone??

Officially, if all goes well, he will be there for 3 years.

This is a good site. Free to use, but if you want to access the latest stuff you have to pay. My SIL found her room in London through it.

I've used this site twice to find an apartment, and once to rent one out- STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

You may have to 'spam' a little or pay for an ad to get adequate responses however.

If this is a temporary thing he could perhaps contact the London chapters of the British Horological Institute http://www.bhi.co.uk/branches

THe TNT magazine is aimed at young adults from the southern hemisphere, but not exclusively so. There are a lot of rooms advertised in every issue.
