Heading to Toronto, Ont
Hi folks, I'm spending the weekend in TO and would like to look at some watches. It would be cool to see some boutiques/ADs and second-hand shops. I have no idea where to look.
Also, any cool spots/neighborhoods to spend some time and kick around with my pretty, little sweetheart? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. |

For ADs I doubt you'll see anything other than datejusts and ladies presidential. There is one called Royal de Versaille right in downtown Yorkville. For greymarket dealers there is one about a block away called Watchfinder. Enjoy your time here!

I’ll let the locals give the advice but enjoy your trip. Toronto has wonderful nightlife and friendly people.

Yorkdale Mall, plenty of watch brands there, Rolex might still be appointment only.
Be forewarned. 401 traffic is terrible. |

Watchfinder on Cumberland, not open on Sundays. I don't think the ADs will have much, but there is one on bloor just minutes away (Royal De Versailles).

All good suggestions above. You can google most of the popular sites and attractions.
If you want gritty/vintage stuff, head to Queen Street West. If you want unique shops in a pedestrian only environment , The Distillery District has fantastic unique one of kind shops and great food etc. They might still have a Chihuly glass at the Landry Gallery. Enjoy your trip |

Head to Yorkville.
Royal DeVersailles (AD), Watchfinder (secondary dealer), Grand Seiko AD around the corner (Banderia?), and a Cartier boutique on Bloor. Grab some lunch at Eataly, pop into the Royal Ontario Museum, and enjoy your stay! If you haven’t booked accommodation yet, I highly recommend the Four Seasons. |

You won’t find anything interesting at any “reasonable” prices.
