just reach out to him and he'll source whatever you want within a few days if you know what you want. if you don't then just go browse on 47th and decide on that first. there are deals to be had on 47th too, you just need to know your price and how to walk away if the deals suck. there aren't really many other dealers outside of 47th

I visit New York fairly often and have made purchases on 47th Street a few times. However, be cautious and make sure to buy from someone you know or someone who has been recommended to you. I've heard countless bad stories about dealers over there.

I have bought 5 watches over last 10 years over there too... and I never liked how business is handled there, no one ever have been nice until I was buying but even then, I didn't liked the expierience. Now i'm back to Nyc after 5 years away and I was hoping rhere's a new places for second hand watches inthe city, otherwise I might end up doing super unfriendly business at 47th street again :/

The dealers along 47th are legit but they are not hand holders. Motion In Time is a watch only store with lots of inventory.
I have never bought anything there but do enjoy browsing.

I see you are from HK and state you will be in NYC for a few weeks.
We have in the US the Trusted Sellers, so it does not matter where they are.
You can contact and if the deal is right they will ship to you in NYC, overnight.
This way you can browse on 47th St and see what you want, then contact the TS’s to strike a legit deal. Good luck
