I bought a 2001 Rolex Explorer from Jacek in 2024. It’s a relatively inexpensive watch compared to a lot of the really cool and unique vintage pieces on Tropical Watch. Even though it was a small sale, Jacek’s patience with my questions and his excellent customer service made me feel confident and seen in what was, for me, a very large and important purchase. I ended up buying my wife a watch from him as well, and that transaction went equally as excellent.

I had an incredible experience working with Jacek and the team. I recommend tropical watch to every collector I know.

Excellent communication. Product shipped expeditiously, condition always as stated. Extremely fair prices in straight sale, purchase, and trade situations.

I did two deals with Jacek via Instagram and they could not have been easier. He is incredibly knowledgable about each and every watch he sells, and keeps them at fair market value. Shipping was always safe and fast.

Jacek at Tropical Watch is incredibly knowledgeable and professional about every watch he sells. Whether I’m buying a piece for myself or picking out a gift, I keep coming back to him. He answers quick, and shoots straight. No BS.

His inventory is always full of interesting, hard-to-find pieces. I’d honestly guess 25% of my doom scrolling time on Instagram is spent on his page, and that’s no exaggeration.

Thank you for being so good at what you do, Jacek!

Great customer service and solid prices for unique watches. Fast delivery. Easy payment coordination. Will buy from Tropical again.

Everything from the watch to the transaction was perfect. I'm a vintage collector and Jacek sold me my favorite watch of the collection so far.

Speedy response from the shop and seamless process of delivery. The watch arrived exactly as it looks on the detailed photos provided by the shop.

Jacek's reputation in this space is well deserved. Super fast delivery, really open/transparent communication about the watch itself, and the watch matched the pictures perfectly. Overall, incredibly pleased with my 16570 I purchased from him, and I'd buy again in a heartbeat.
A quick google of Tropical Watch should convince you this is the best place to buy a vintage Rolex online!

Bought a vintage Rolex GMT-Master from Jacek of Tropical Watch. Watch was 100% as described, communication was seamless, and it arrived on my doorstep the next day. Jacek’s knowledge of vintage timepieces is unmatched, and he made the process effortless. Deal with total confidence!

I've been collecting vintage watches for nearly 2 decades, experience's taught me to to approach online purchases with a healthy degree of caution. I'm glad to say that Jacek of Tropical Watches has met every bit of my expectations.

I purchased a Rolex 1680/8 in 2024 and a Rolex 5513 in 2025 from Jacek, and both transactions reinforced the importance of dealing with a competent and reliable dealer. The watches were exactly as described, and every question I raised was answered openly and professionally. No exaggeration, no salesmanship, and no attempt to hide imperfections.

Jacek was transparent, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in ensuring that I was comfortable with the purchases.

Buying vintage watches online always requires a leap of faith, but Jacek's earned my confidence completely. I would happily buy from him again and recommend him to any collector looking for authentic vintage Rolex watches!

Great communication throughout the buying process. Watch is exactly as advertised 2 years later

I purchased two Rolexes on separate occasions from tropicalwatch.com. Each one arrived exactly as pictured and described on the site at a sharp price. The entire process, from expressing interest online to receiving a prompt reply from Jacek and, ultimately, to receiving the watch via FedEx overnight, was seamless. At this point, once I’ve decided I want to buy a particular watch, I’ll wait until I see it on tropicalwatch.com and buy it there.

Great experience buying from Jacek.
Excellent communication throughout the process, a very honest price, and the item arrived quickly and safely packaged. Grazie A

Jacek and his team at tropical watch are great. I have brought two watches from the site. They are upfront, knowledgeable, and make you feel safe making a large purchase over the internet. Most importantly, they have treated us fairly both times.

I feel more comfortable going with tropical watch than even physical storefronts because they have the knowledge and trustworthiness to certify their watches and send them across the world.

Their photography is excellent and extremely high resolution. They show every part of the watches, blemishes and all. You know exactly what you are getting at a good price. My next purchase will be from tropical watch

Jacek is the best in the business. He’s fast to respond and everything was done professionally. Photos are great examples of how the watches look like in person. Hope to do business with you in the future!

The only online store where I’ll buy vintage watches. Fantastic service and great prices.

Excellent! I got a golden Rolex from them, simply gorgeous and in excellent condition. Communication also was simple and fast. Thank you!

Jacek has been finding amazing watches for me for more than 15 years. He is a total expert who is also totally fair and reasonable.

Jacek hit all the right notes: a fair price, quick communication, fast shipping, and excellent service. Buying a watch from him was actually fun.

Of course, the Submariner reference I’d been looking for appeared on his site right after my first purchase shipped. Jacek took my change of mind in stride, applied my full purchase toward the exchange, and arranged a prepaid, insured return. He made it easy.

I’m now wearing a beautiful 2022 Submariner Date with box and papers and couldn’t be happier. Great watch, great experience—I’d happily buy from him again.
