Watch hunting in Tokyo with a specialist
起¥110,000
索取报价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.

🗓️ 当天怎么走
- 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.
影响价格的因素
- How many hours
- How many shops need appointments
- Which districts
💴 这是小团的起始价。最终价格取决于日期、人数与供应商——我们逐一询价后提供逐项列明的报价。
请先了解的条件
- 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
- • 如何预订？是即时确认吗？
- 不是点一下就完成。您在页面底部提交需求，我们会回复一份书面报价：最终价格、具体包含什么，以及这一趟行程适用的取消条件。您同意报价后预订才成立。比「立即预订」慢，但不会把没有档期的东西卖给您。
- • 会和其他客人拼团吗？
- 不会。这两个板块的行程全部为私人包团：只有您这一行人、专属车辆、专属接待。不拼团，也不必等别人。
- • 不是收藏家也值得参加吗？
- 不会。同行者会先问您目前了解到什么程度，再按那个程度来讲——刚入门就从头说起，玩得久了就直接谈成色与行情。预订这一天的人多半是在找第一块像样的表，而不是在扩充收藏。
- • 当天可以购买吗？表款本身算在行程价里吗？
- 可以，表款本身不含在行程价内——行程价只包含随行专家与车辆。专家会查看成色、把开价与市场行情对照、为您翻译议价并在店内办好退税手续。我们不收任何店家的佣金，因此建议不会偏向谁。
- • 店家是固定的吗？可以只围绕我想要的品牌走吗？
- 没有固定路线。请先告诉我们品牌、型号或预算，我们据此排定行程，需要预约的店家提前约好。有一点直说，免得您期待落空：东京正规店不接受留货，也不为稀有型号预留，我们能安排的是带您走进店内，至于当天柜里有没有那一只，谁都不能保证。
- • 在哪里接送？
- 在行程所写城市的中心区域内，酒店接送已含在价格中。中心区外同样可以接您，附加费会写在报价里，绝不会在上车时才加。
- • 行程可以调整吗？
- 可以。上面的时间表是跑起来最顺的版本，不是死框。想多开一会儿、换一顿饭、加一晚，或砍掉某一段，都写进需求里；价格随之调整，变动写清在报价中。
- • 随行团队会说哪些语言？
- 请在需求里写明希望的语言。报价中会明确告知该语言的人员在您选定的那一天是否排得开，不会先答应、到当天才说没人。
- • 什么时候付款、怎么付？
- 在您读完并同意报价之前，不收任何费用。付款方式、付款时点，以及哪一部分需要预付才能锁住第三方档期，都写在那份报价里。事后不会再冒出新费用。
- • 应该提前多久预订？
- 越早越稳。直升机、旅馆客房、超跑和小店餐位每天名额都极少，不是付钱就有。临近日期也欢迎询问：有位我们就接，没有就直说没有。
取消与改期
这一趟行程的取消条件会写进您的报价里，并且在您付任何一笔钱之前就能读到。
我们不会给整个板块贴一条「提前 X 天取消退 Y%」的统一规则，因为每一趟要锁的东西都不一样：包机、旅馆客房、超跑、只有几个座位的餐厅。各家条件不同，且多半已先付款。统一数字看起来整齐，但对大多数行程都会是错的数字。
我们守的原则是：尚未付给供应商的部分可以取消；已经付出去、对方不退的部分，我们会明说不可退——在报价时就说，而不是等您要取消时才说。想改期请在取消前先问：挪一次通常比砍掉便宜得多。
