Where in Minneapolis are these shops?

Is it safe to buy a pre-owned Rolex?

Yes, from a reputable dealer that authenticates every watch and puts a guarantee in writing. Check that the serial on the papers matches the watch, and have it inspected by your own watchmaker within the return window if you can.

What does grey market mean for watches?

Grey market dealers sell new or unworn watches that came from outside the brand's authorized network. They're legal and widely used, but the manufacturer warranty may not apply in the usual way, so the dealer's own warranty matters.

Do box and papers matter?

They add value and make resale easier, especially for modern sports watches, because they document the watch's first sale. They can be faked or swapped, though, so the serial on the papers must match the watch.
