Vienna has always been paradise for watches but things may have changed in this new scenario. Probably low stocks like everywhere else but it's worth a try.

Don't you realize by now the only reason tourists buy watches is so they can travel home and place them in the for sale ads to "flip" them?

i passed on a Hulk and a SD43 at a US AD in Houston last year because they were still so much cheaper in the UK since im based in USD. Not that it mattered as they are not available in the UK anyway, but still it just seemed like not a good deal

Dusseldorf in Germany is a nice place to shop around.

I’m speaking solely of window shopping* I was just glancing with my wife. I didn’t inquire about anything in the back as I wasn’t interested in purchasing. Ehhh, can’t remember the name, Hodi something I believe?

I went past there the other day... looked like a demolition site... shame, it was a nice AD.

moto99 · 12 July 2019, 10:37 PM

Just an update, I traveled through Spain and Italy this month. Not a lot as far as sports models go...I know...shocking! haha

Came across a Z-blue Milgauss, Polar explorer two, two explorer ones and a few different Yacht Master models as well as a Black Bay 58. Pretty much all Datejust's and OP after that. Felt like at least one store was holding out and probably had the Sub I was looking for in the back stashed for local customers.

I like your super rare double cyclops sd43

Not at any big-city AD.

Airport AD is the best bet IMO.

If you're looking for a ladies model then any shop will do. That's all they have.

This. Juwelier Wagner on stephansplatz had the best selection of Rolex I’ve seen anywhere in Europe or the UK. This may have changed since I bought my Batman, but I’ve never seen a wider array of Rolex in a boutique anywhere.

My favorite UK dealer is either the Covent Garden location or the Glasgow WOS and neither of them have had anything very interesting in some time, at least in terms of sports models or steel.

Prague i never even found an AD.

Buy from an AD in your own country
