gonole1972 Posted June 30, 2004 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Any recommendations on what store is is best when shopping for a watch while in St. Thomas? Especially interested at the shops at the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EH7774 Posted July 1, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Little Switzerland is one of the best stores on the island. I grew up on the Island and am still wearing the Seiko I got there many many many years ago. Cardow's is also very good. Remember, the bargans aren't as great as advertised but it is duty free shopping. The selections and styles run more European. Hope this helps.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted July 4, 2004 #3 Share Posted July 4, 2004 :) Also be warned. Some shops in the US won't repair anything that is bought in the islands - due to different warrenties. This can be a hassle if anything goes wrong with the watch. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

premiumrican Posted July 12, 2004 #5 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Royal Caribbean store Downtown....They sell great watches, jewelry and Electronics such as cameras etc. Got my first Movado there for a great price and that was five years ago. Haven't had a problem with it except for changing the battery last year for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skigirl Posted July 14, 2004 #6 Share Posted July 14, 2004 It may depend on what brand you are looking for - some brands are only carried in certain stores. I got an Ebel at Columbian Emeralds a number of years ago and I wear it daily. I've never had any problems getting it maintained at a jewelry store here that is an authorized dealer. Agree that Little Switzerland, Cardows and H. Stern are also good. I suggest that you research what you want before you leave home so that you have a good idea of what's available and what prices should be. There are good bargains but a good watch is still not cheap. However, just not paying the sales tax alone really helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
