Pre-Owned watches in Moscow

[bbgood]

Helo, I have to travel to Moscow, I saw that the watches in Russia are much cheaper than the European, I would like to buy some used for myself, would you recommend me some reliable dealer with good pre owned watches.

if you want some luxury, high-end or just normal massmarket watches
you should examine the feedback branch http://forum.watch.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=209
choose your seller
examine his lots on market via the button "find all other seller's lots on market" from his any market lot or "find all started topics" in his profile
then contact seller via forum PM and manage the deal

if you want some low-cost soviet vintage watches - go to izmaylovskiy passage (offline vintage (not only watches) flea market)

There is no "some good old generous pawnshop". Every pawnshop objective is to rip you off - would it be Moscow, NY or UK. Just check chrono 24 for the models you like, all decent offers are already there.

Ok, thanks for answers i find some watches on avito and here also, can you recommend some service where i can check watch before buy?

Ok just keep in mind that Avito ads are fakes 3 times out of 4. This forum's market has some community filter and seller's history at least.
As for service, there is not many of them speaking english and not considering you a walking wallet. Horology (Tochny Khod) recommended earlier is a good shot.

Thaks, i found a lot dealers called "lombard" in general are this watches without papers that they sell legal?

"Lombard" is a pawnshop in russian. And just like any other pawnsop, you never know the history of item.
