Grey Dealers in NYC

Hello everyone, I will be travelling to NYC next month. I would like to know if there is an area in NYC that sells pre-owned/vintage Rolex? Thanks.

When I visited last, there were many dealers in the diamond district who had new Rolexes for sale. I guess that makes them grey dealers.

The diamond district is on 47th street, between 5th and 6th Avenue. Have fun!

NYC is no different than HK. Lots to look at, prices higher than to believe and sellers who are rather arrogant.

Don't waste your time looking around. Only get annoyed and frustrated at all the nonsense. Enjoy NYC for other things and buy from a trusted grey seller.

You won't find any bargains in the Diamond District but if you know what you want, how much you want to pay, and are ready to buy on the spot, you might just get the watch of your dreams. Try Motion in Time.

If you could go to any city in the world, where do you think you’d find grey dealers that were more reasonable?
