I can’t stand grey market prices but this shop has a lot of nice watches in stock. If you visit stop by Palm Beach Tactical next door.

Seybold Building downtown is Miami’s version of NYC 47 St. diamond district, 10 stories of mostly jewelers. You’ll see lots.

Was the explorer at a Mayors in Orlando? I asked for one earlier this week at another Mayors. Waiting to hear back. They mentioned they had some but reserved for customers. If they pass I might have a shot.

They're great. I've been good friends with the owner since high school. Obv he's a grey, but he's extremely reputable and will work with you if he can.

That’s good to hear. From everything I have seen they seem to be a great shop.

If you can make the drive to DavidSW in Orlando I would recommend them. Just did a purchase of a BLNR about two months ago. Also, Jewelry in Time in Boca Raton has a ton of Rolex watches. https://www.jewelsintime.com/

Expect grey market prices everywhere. And don't waste your time at Mayors or JR Dunn in Pompano Beach.

Both spots in Naples are asking 17 k on Oyster.

Exquisite timepieces is pricey but legit.

Stay away from Seybold Bldg. shark Tank.
Starving Marvin in the jewelry exchange in Aventura is one of the biggest greys in the area sells tons of watches. I have not bought from him but lots of my friends have and all have been very happy.

After that you’re better off taking the family for a nice lunch at the Bal Harbor mall. They’ll enjoy the experience

The one store at the front on the street has a big selection and the people there are VERY nice.

The one guy in the bright white shop a few stores in is horrible. He gets all the unworn models, asks the highest prices I've ever seen, and won't let you try on the watches, but that is not the worst part, he's a complete d*ck about it all. (tell me what you really think, I know!)

Yes he’s not bad. I bought my first Rolex there it was a ladies TT DJ with diamond bezel. Came with B&P. He neglected to tell me it was after market bezel and I didn’t know any better then to ask. It was a minimal purchase and the watch overall was in mint condition for 97.

So when I found out I just let it slide. But as a whole it’s Frankenstein city in there

Seybold Jewelry Building

36 NE 1st St, Miami, FL 33132
https://g.co/kgs/3RdLPu

Whole arcade with around 50 different grey dealers. If you don’t find a few there I would be very surprised. A previous poster didn’t recommend but I live here and there is a good collection and if the offer isn’t right just say no.

There is something magical about Archie repeating DSW's name for 5 straight minutes. I never manage to turn off the videos until he is done!
