Review of Las Vegas watch shops

Caesars Palace Forum Shops (Tourneau, Roman Times, Chopard Boutique) The Tourneau was disappointing in almost every way --except customer service. In that, it met our lowest expectation -- no, to be fair, it was worse. The largest watch shop in the world had lots of brands and not much in the way of selection of each brand and over half the space devoted to brands I could care less about -- and all of the watches were shopworn from being overhandled. My home Tourneau had nearly as much selection of the brands I was interested in. Underwhelming.

Bellagio (Tesorini)

Venetian (Horologio, Bellusso [Breguet and IWC Boutiques in the store], Ca'd'Oro, Movado Boutique -- it's worth a laugh)

Palazzo (Van Cleef and Arpels & Venetzia)

Wynn (they are all called Wynn something -- two shops, one all Rolex, one with real watches)

Fashion Show Mall (Neiman Marcus and Ben Bridge) -- all within 3-4 blocks

The above took about three days -- one day for each grouping of two. There were also Cartier and Tiffany's on every corner -- almost literally.

Skip the Miracle Mile shops -- no watches to speak of

Have fun -- we sure did
