Grey shops in London or Paris?
Will be there for 10 days. Was very curious to see the shop that is small and has all those vintage watches in the window. It’s a corner shop.

Burlington Arcade is the place for vintage watches.
In terms of grey dealers, I recommend BQ Watches, but they are way out of central London in the suburbs of NW London, but opposite Radlett station on the Thameslink line |

Have you had any direct dealings with BQ Watches, can you comment on what they are like in any way? Thanks. |

I sold quite an expensive piece to BQW. They were very easy to deal with

Spencer and his team are all great. My recently purchased 14060M came from BQ and I am delighted with it and the deal I got |
