To all requesting items, I will be stopping in today and will have answers for everyone. I get out of work at 5:00PM EST so expect an answer around 7:00PM EST.

Have to agree there and nothing in pictures to say any different.

Be careful man, I see some major differences right there.

1) the second hand has a circle at the base in the book, the one in the store is squared off

2) a solid line connects all the minute ticks in the book, the one in the store has seperated minute ticks

As promised...

1. No SS Ladies Datejust in stock
2. Black Dial Zodiac - Didn't want to sell but said something like "maybe 1K"
3. Seiko Driver $250
4. 1 18K Jubilee Bracelet for 1601 - $2500 (crazy old man)
5. No Doxa watches, it was an Omega

Shops

Shops like these know exactly what to ask for.

Mostly they are overpriced but they still sell, in a big city there's allways someone willing to pay.

There are no garage sales priced watches in NYC.
