Sydney Watch Shops w/ PM??

Headed to Sydney tomorrow night and returning on Wednesday so only have Tuesday to explore. I’m specifically looking for PM DDs or GMT. Any recommendations for specific shops in the CBD? Is the shortage in Australia limited to SS and can one expect a discount for PM? If PM is discounted, what would be a good deal?

TIA!

Maybe try and call them all first. Vintage Watches website has a nice solid gold ceramic Sub for aud36k, have fun looking.

I live in Sydney and Kennedy AD had no sports in stainless or or precious metal at all. One day date in platinum with diamonds but all gold ones were gone.
Same in Sydney international airport and same in the hour glass boutique however worth a visit.
The strand arcade has some good second hand shops to look at.

Try J Farren Price. Most of the shops are within walking distance. So no reason you could not visit all stores within a short period of time.

sydney watch exchange and rolex in martin place. i reckon even if you pay retail for like a 116619, given our lower rrp (relative to US in any case) and then if you get GST back, would have done pretty good.
