Jackroad is a Japanese luxury watch specialist based in Nakano Broadway, Tokyo. Founded in 1987, the retailer has become one of Japan’s best-known destinations for new, pre-owned and vintage watches.
The store describes itself as a pioneer of parallel-import watches in Japan. Jackroad sources new watches through authorized overseas retailers and wholesalers, allowing it to offer many luxury models at prices that can differ from official Japanese boutique pricing.
Jackroad maintains more than 5,000 watches in stock, ranging from current Rolex and OMEGA models to rare Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, vintage pieces and independent watchmakers. Pre-owned watches are inspected, serviced and prepared before being offered for sale.
The business combines online shopping with a large physical store in Nakano Broadway. Customers can also use trade-in, direct purchase, consignment, watch sourcing, financing, bracelet sizing and after-sales services.
Jackroad carries an unusually large assortment of luxury watches in new, pre-owned, unworn and vintage condition. Inventory changes frequently, and many used or collectible watches are one-of-a-kind pieces.
Major brands include Rolex, OMEGA, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Vacheron Constantin, Cartier, IWC Schaffhausen, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Panerai, Hublot, Breitling, Grand Seiko, A. Lange & Söhne, Breguet, Blancpain, Tudor, Zenith, Chopard and F.P. Journe.
The site includes New Arrivals, Price Down, Sale, New Outlet, Pre-Owned Unworn, Vintage, Limited Edition Watches, Grade B watches and Collector’s Items, giving shoppers several different ways to compare condition and pricing.
Pre-owned and vintage watches undergo maintenance before sale. Watches requiring an overhaul are serviced, worn components can be replaced and the finished watch is inspected before being listed online or returned to the display case.
Jackroad also sells luxury jewelry, bags, wallets, accessories and apparel, while sister store Bettyroad focuses strongly on women’s watches and luxury goods.
Jackroad offers free shipping throughout Japan using Yamato Transport or Sagawa Express. Domestic customers can select available delivery time windows during checkout.
Orders paid by bank transfer are shipped after payment confirmation, with domestic delivery generally expected within approximately 1 to 3 days. Special-order products are shipped after they arrive and payment requirements have been completed.
International shipping is also available, but overseas orders are handled separately and customers should contact Jackroad to confirm the destination, shipping method, insurance, import restrictions and total cost.
International buyers are responsible for applicable customs duties, taxes and other destination charges. Product eligibility can also depend on materials, destination-country regulations and shipping restrictions.
Because physical-store and online inventory are shared, shoppers planning to visit Nakano should confirm availability in advance. Jackroad can reserve an eligible item until the end of the following business day for customers planning an in-store purchase.
Jackroad has a strict general return policy. For standard mail-order purchases, returns and exchanges are accepted primarily when an item arrives damaged, defective or malfunctioning. Customers should contact Jackroad within two days, including the day of delivery.

If the customer is not satisfied with an eligible used or vintage watch, the return can be requested and sent back by the day after delivery. New and selected special-condition products are excluded.
Internationally shipped products cannot be returned or exchanged, so overseas buyers should carefully review the exact model, condition, accessories, warranty and sizing before completing payment.
Watches that have had their bracelet sized by Jackroad cannot be returned or exchanged. Special-order and sourced watches also become non-refundable after final payment.
Jackroad supports several payment methods for Japanese customers. Online options include bank transfer, cash on delivery, shopping loans, PayPay and Amazon Pay.

Shopping loans are subject to approval and are generally available to customers age 18 or older with stable income. Eligibility and payment terms can vary by product and applicant.
Jackroad does not rely heavily on conventional coupon codes. Its main savings come from parallel-import pricing, Price Down listings, sale and outlet watches, interest-free financing, tax-free shopping and pre-owned buyback programs.
