Rodeo Drive Ginza
“A Yokohama pawnbroker's Ginza shop: vintage Rolex and Cartier at fair prices, repairs in-house.”
Rodeo Drive is the shop side of a Yokohama pawnbroker founded in 1954; the first Rodeo Drive opened on Motomachi in 1989. This Ginza branch opened in November 2023 on Renga-dori, a minute from Ginza Station: watches, bags and jewellery on the ground floor, a private buying salon upstairs.
Come for the watches. Reviewers leave with vintage Rolex and vintage Cartier at prices they call competitive, and a certified technician handles repairs and polishing. The bag side is smaller but good: Chanel, Hermès, Louis Vuitton, the odd Deauville bowling bag. Open 11 to 7, so go early.
