Watch Shopping in South Beach

Gents,

I’m running down to Miami to tour the University of Miami with my son. Any suggestions for fun watch shopping in South Beach?

I’m interested in all the brands and I’ve always heard this is one of the premier places for watch shopping.

Thanks in advance!

MJ

Off the top of head been a while I’ve been to Miami (live in Boca)

Wrist Aficionado On Collins not a massive collection but good range of brands, super high end $$ (Richard Mille)

Gray and Sons is down there as well (Surfside)- usually pretty large collection. Not as “high end” as above but larger collection and good mix.

Westime

Rolex Boutique if you want Rolex.

1. Miami Design district is a cool spot with almost all brands represented with Boutiques.
2. Bal Harbor has several Rolex, IWC, Panerai AP and other boutiques.
3. The Seybold building has several pre owned dealers.

Go to the boutique inside the Setai. Be prepared to see unicorns and a fair amount of unobtanium pieces.

The FP Journe boutique (downtown Miami) is a great visit too. Enjoy the University of Miami campus as well, it is stunning.

CRM Jewelers, pretty well known. I got my Hulk from there about a year and half ago.

In the Jewelry Exchange 19275 Biscayne Blvd. Highline Time is very reliable and has been in the used and new Rolex business for many years.

There are many options in Miami… but (I think) not so much in South Beach.

If you want to see any vintage, both Matt Bain and Adam of Menta have offices near Lincoln Road on the Beach (make appointments). To see new in brand boutiques, Design District on the mainland is your spot.

Enjoy!

Ever stopped in at Jewels in Time on Federal Hwy? I was there 2-3 years ago and was impressed at their inventory levels, especially on Rolex. No idea how competitive they are though.

Found it! So fun. Not for sale of course.
