Quark's New Horizon: Opening a Rolex Store in Sapporo

In a significant move for Rolex enthusiasts in Hokkaido, Quark, a renowned specialist watch retailer, has announced the grand opening of its new store in Sapporo on April 12, 2025. This development expands Quark's presence in Japan, marking its 18th location nationwide. The new store is nestled in the stylish underground shopping haven of Aurora Town, which is conveniently accessible through the Odori Station, served by multiple subway lines including the Tozai, Namboku, and Tohoku lines.

About Quark and Its Vision

Founded in 1998 and operated by the company A-R Co., Ltd., Quark has built a reputation as a premier destination for Rolex watches, ranging from vintage to the latest models. It is part of the WatchNyan Group, renowned for established firms in branded goods resale, including WatchNyan Co., Ltd., Kaitori WatchNyan Co., Ltd., Ginzō Co., Ltd., and WatchNyan Auction Co., Ltd. Quark’s expertise lies not only in offering a vast selection of Rolex watches but also in providing exceptional product knowledge, making them a leading player in Japan’s branded resale market.

With a presence that spans across major cities in Japan, such as Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya, as well as locations in Hong Kong, the opening of the Sapporo store marks the company’s first venture into Hokkaido.
