Antique Pocket Watches

Where can I buy an antique pocket watch?
I'd like to get an antique pocket watch, preferably silver, but i don't know where to look! I don't want to buy from ebay.com because I feel like i'd get ripped off so i'd like to go to an actual site for pocket watches or even a store? Do you know any good sites/stores that i could look at? Please and thank you!
if u stay in bangalore(india), u can try national market.. i got one for myself last month..

A Few Tips to Maintain a Great Antique Pocket Watch Collection
Wristwatches are not the only way to carry personal time pieces. In fact wrist watches were introduced in the market much later. In earlier days, portable time pieces were originally in the form of pocket watches. Earlier form of clothing was loose fitting clothes like trousers with waist coats and overcoats and it used to be rather easy for people to carry pocket watches inside their pockets. However nowadays the style has changed and people feel it is easier to just wear time pieces on their wrist rather than loosing them somewhere in the pockets.
Pocket watches were introduced in the earlier seventeenth century and had become an immediate favourite for the general public due to its portability and fantastic usability. It started off as a luxury item for a certain class of people but soon everyone owned it especially gentlemen who used to go out for work. Personal time pieces were then a necessity rather than a luxury item. These days these are the time pieces that people still find interesting enough to collect them to make an incredible collection of antique pocket watches.
It is not very difficult to get hold of a pocket watch these days since these are available in many online shopping portals. The quality needs to be checked before buying since you need to be sure how antique these really are before investing in them. Their craftsmanship is also incomparable with today's modern technology based watch making. Most of the older watches used to be hand made especially the more expensive jewellery studded ones. These are worth owning since these speak of the old era and the taste and perfection that people had.
Buying and owing antique pocket watches is easier these days, but what is more important is maintaining them since these turn out to be quite old and delicate. There are certain measures that you need to take if you want their long life and want your collection of pocket watches to be glittering like gold. Since these are old, lubrication becomes an important part in maintaining them. However, it is best if one gets this work done by professionals rather than you trying to do it yourself. After all during olden days, the mechanical parts might be much different than the regular ones of today.
Another few points to remember is to keep these watches away from moisture or any direct exposure to water. Old watches were never water proof and would immediately be spoilt with minimal exposure to water. Also, it is best to keep them away from strong electro magnetic fields since magnetic components would spoil their function and they would not run properly.
Another interesting fact about antique pocket watches is that these were seldom automatic. These need to be wind daily to keep them in constant motion. Hence, it is advisable to wind them at the same time daily. If you take care of these small facts, you can own a splendid antique pocket watch collection to impress many.
