Looking for Vintage watches while in Japan

[Mark_USA1]

I will be visiting Tokyo and Yokohama areas

Does anyone have any suggestions for watch stores selling older watches

Seiko, Rolex, others ?

I knew of some others at one point, but one I can still pull out of memory is Masa's Pastime in Kichijoji. It's very high end, and the others might be places buried in Nakano shopping street, or various places downtown. There can also be watch sections in stores dealing in used cameras/lenses/equipment.

Masa bought this gold one from me, but was not interested in the hamilton (not gold?, and the mold on the face at 10:30?).

Thank you for the information. Wow that watch looks great ! Love the old mechanical movement.

I am looking mostly for brand name older wrist watches from Rolex, Omega, Tudor and Seiko, Older sport models mostly.
But I am sure something else might look interesting also.

I will check out the store mentioned.

Thank you again for your thoughts.

Mark
