Source for high end or vintage pocket watches?
Looking for some high end or vintage (Vacheron, Rolex, JLC, etc..) pocket watches.
Seems the only pocket watches I can locate from surfing the web are either cheap decorative pocket watches or Swiss Army pocket watches. Thanks! |

Check out local auctions I will say. From what I know it's the best, most safe way to get a vintage like that.

This seller has some others for sale including a minute repeater pocket watch going on right now. The watch I gave you the link to is beautiful. Mr. Cash on E-Bay typically has some pocket watches for sale but not right now. Terry Newton

This thread has me wondering just how many folks here have pocket watch collections. I know I do have a very modest one.
Best Regards, Thomas Carey |

I have two but only because they are family heirlooms from my Great Grandfather and Uncle.
If you look up AAA Watches in Wayzata Mn. they sell them and I believe he either has or can get higher end models. The owner's name is Bill and he is a great guy. Good Luck, David
