Icon6 Need Some Suggestion...

as I am going to Hong Kong in a couple of days...

Places to go/see. Staying in Jordan Mtr area. 6 days.

Traveling with the wife, 15 months daughter and mother in law. First time there and looking forward to see the Rolex City of The Far East.

Thanks in advance.




p.s. will be wearing my Dssd and will loan my SubC to the wife (she requested). I know its safe there but just wanna share this recent news.

Kwong Wah Street, just one MTR stop away in Yau Ma Tei, is the latest centre for used and vintage Rolex. Champagne Court on Kimberly Road is also quite good for used, grey and vintage watch shops and is within walking distance of your hotel. I hope you enjoy your time here! That shop robbery was very unusual, and the first time a gun has been fired in a robbery for more than a decade.

Sure. Are you looking for vintage, more recent secondhand, or new?

16613, I should never of sold at Xmas or a Birthyear Sub (76).

I could also do with sourcing a Jubilee for my 16710.

Thanks

The info in these links is comprehsnsive. They're a couple of years old but most of the shops should still be open for business.
