Munich bound
Hey watch family, next week I will be in Munich Germany for a short stay (in route to some skiing). I thought while I was there I might have a chance to look at watches 🙂 Any recommendations? Thanks in advance for sharing your experience.

I started collecting in mid 2021 and have purchased a number of entry level watches. I'm having a good time and refining my ideas about what makes a satisfying collection. BTW, my page image is my wif...

Been to Munich many times, but I have never watch shopped there. However, there should be plenty of ADs and boutiques downtown. Similar to Salzburg you run into them even if you're not specifically looking.
But sorry, never bought while I was traveling, and I was there last June.
Thanks. I have also been there many times (Love that city!) but not since I started collecting watches. I am sure there will be plenty of AD's. I am wondering if there are any hidden gems for second hand watches :)
Salzburg! You spend time in Austria. My wife is Austrian, we get back there as often as we can for some amazing skiing.
Happy future travels
Last time I was there Oberpollinger on the ground floor had many watches (I think it's technically Bucherer) and I have seen good sales on a few Omega 😏
The Blancpain boutique, although small, might have interesting stuff (at least some perpetual calendars) and in my experience will let you look at very nice and expensive watches even if you are not there to buy them. They are just bored, especially on workday mornings...

The Tartan Army will soon be Munich Bound . See you there 👍
I’m driving Munich a few times a year. Look for AD Wempe, they are very professional and customer-oriented! 5min in same direction to Marienplatz you find Bucherer Certified-Preowned Boutique is every time a visit worth! Panerai Boutique is not ver big, but the staff is very friendly and it‘s not too busy. Omega is also very nice to visit - super friendly and helpful staff! 😉
Great watches at the airport if your are travelling with plane.

Thank you so much!! Just the kind of direction I was hoping for!
Ask for Mr. Held at Wempe Weinstraße, he's a very polite and great to chat to sales rep. Fridrich at Sendlingerstraße is great as well. I also recommend to visit the Richard Mille boutique, as far as i know it is the only one in Germany, the staff is very friendly and not snobby at all and you get a free brandbook if you ask politely. The staff at Bulgari is also very friendly. I would not recommend Christ, the service is usually quite poor and the staff is not really schooled.
