Watch hunting in Tokyo with a specialist
起¥110,000
索取報價Tokyo is one of the few cities on earth where the pre-owned watch trade is both deep enough and honest enough to be worth flying for. The reason is particular to Japan: buyers here prize a legible dial and a movement that keeps time over unusual complications, so watches get worn carefully, serviced on schedule and kept with their box and papers — buying a ten-year-old piece in Tokyo is not the same transaction as buying that same piece elsewhere. The city runs all three tiers at once: authorised boutiques, the grey market, and unmarked third-floor dealers you would never find alone. The person with you works in the trade rather than in tourism: they check the condition, sanity-check the asking price against the market, and know which shops deal straight. You do not have to be a collector to come — most people who book this are looking for their first serious watch.

當天怎麼走
09:00
Pickup at the hotel. The person with you works in the trade, not in tourism — tell us beforehand which references you are after so the day goes to the right shops instead of all of them.
09:45
The flagship boutiques in Ginza and Nihonbashi, where the new stock and the waiting lists are. Your companion knows which of them will bring pieces out of the case for a foreign visitor and which will not.
11:30
The second-hand district. This is where Tokyo genuinely beats other cities: pre-owned watches here are kept and documented better than in almost any other market.
13:00
Lunch, if you want to stop. Plenty of visitors skip it to keep going, and that is fine — the day is not on rails.
14:00
Back to whichever shop you liked, to look properly and to negotiate — or on to another if nothing landed. Your companion interprets both the haggling and the tax-refund paperwork.
15:30
The car is waiting outside the last shop. If you bought something, this is when your companion runs a last check over the box, the warranty papers and the tax-refund receipt before you leave the district.
16:00
Back at the hotel. The tax refund and the packing were finished in the shop, so there is no second trip.
影響價格的因素
- How many hours
- How many shops need appointments
- Which districts
💴 這是小團的起始價。最終價格取決於日期、人數與供應商——我們逐一詢價後提供逐項列明的報價。
請先了解的條件
- Tell us what you are after in advance; the route is built afterwards, it is not a fixed loop
- Bring your passport if you intend to buy tax-free
- • 如何預訂？是即時確認嗎？
- 不是點一下就完成。您在頁面底部提交需求，我們會回覆一份書面報價：最終價格、具體包含什麼，以及這一趟行程適用的取消條件。您同意報價後預訂才成立。比「立即預訂」慢，但不會把沒有檔期的東西賣給您。
- • 會和其他客人拼團嗎？
- 不會。這兩個板塊的行程全部為私人包團：只有您這一行人、專屬車輛、專屬接待。不拼團，也不必等別人。
- • 不是收藏家也值得參加嗎？
- 不會。同行者會先問您目前了解到什麼程度，再按那個程度來講——剛入門就從頭說起，玩得久了就直接談成色與行情。預訂這一天的人多半是在找第一塊像樣的錶，而不是在擴充收藏。
- • 當天可以購買嗎？錶款本身算在行程價裡嗎？
- 可以，錶款本身不含在行程價內——行程價只包含隨行專家與車輛。專家會查看成色、把開價與市場行情對照、為您翻譯議價並在店內辦好退稅手續。我們不收任何店家的佣金，因此建議不會偏向誰。
- • 店家是固定的嗎？可以只圍繞我想要的品牌走嗎？
- 沒有固定路線。請先告訴我們品牌、型號或預算，我們據此排定行程，需要預約的店家提前約好。有一點直說，免得您期待落空：東京正規店不接受留貨，也不為稀有型號預留，我們能安排的是帶您走進店內，至於當天櫃裡有沒有那一只，誰都不能保證。
- • 在哪裡接送？
- 在行程所寫城市的中心區域內，飯店接送已含在價格中。中心區外同樣可以接您，附加費會寫在報價裡，絕不會在上車時才加。
- • 行程可以調整嗎？
- 可以。上面的時間表是跑起來最順的版本，不是死框。想多開一會兒、換一頓飯、加一晚，或砍掉某一段，都寫進需求裡；價格隨之調整，變動寫清在報價中。
- • 隨行團隊會說哪些語言？
- 請在需求裡寫明希望的語言。報價中會明確告知該語言的人員在您選定的那一天是否排得開，不會先答應、到當天才說沒人。
- • 什麼時候付款、怎麼付？
- 在您讀完並同意報價之前，不收任何費用。付款方式、付款時點，以及哪一部分需要預付才能鎖住第三方檔期，都寫在那份報價裡。事後不會再冒出新費用。
- • 應該提前多久預訂？
- 越早越穩。直升機、旅館客房、超跑和小店餐位每天名額都極少，不是付錢就有。臨近日期也歡迎詢問：有位我們就接，沒有就直說沒有。
取消與改期
這一趟行程的取消條件會寫進您的報價裡，並且在您付任何一筆錢之前就能讀到。
我們不會給整個板塊貼一條「提前 X 天取消退 Y%」的統一規則，因為每一趟要鎖的東西都不一樣：包機、旅館客房、超跑、只有幾個座位的餐廳。各家條件不同，且多半已先付款。統一數字看起來整齊，但對大多數行程都會是錯的數字。
我們守的原則是：尚未付給供應商的部分可以取消；已經付出去、對方不退的部分，我們會明說不可退——在報價時就說，而不是等您要取消時才說。想改期請在取消前先問：挪一次通常比砍掉便宜得多。
