Atlantis Ginza
“A small Koenji-born buy-and-sell shop in Ginza 8-chome that regulars call the best for Chrome Hearts.”
A small buy-and-sell shop from a Koenji company with four branches. The Ginza one, on the 8-chome end near Shimbashi, is quieter and more formal than its Koenji sister: brand bags and watches along the left wall, silver and jewellery in the cases, and whatever came in that week up for sale on the spot.
The reason to come is Chrome Hearts. Reviewers call it the best in Tokyo for it, with fair prices, pieces for every budget and authenticity they trust. Check the .925 stamps and the weight of the silver. Opens at noon, closes at 7 on weekends.
