Are there flea markets in Amsterdam?
In particular, I am interested in the opportunity to buy a wrist watch. But in general it would be interesting to take a walk.

There is a flea market in Amsterdam, almost in the center. More precisely, I won’t give a tip, except for the pictures there is no other information. Walking is very interesting! You can buy almost everything. We were struck by the huge number of gas masks and dolls that were sold in the Soviet of Deputies.

Are the prices there for tourists or for locals?

Waterlooplein (Amsterdam), Holland
Address: Waterlooplein 53 Binnenstad
Another most famous market is located in Holland, in Amsterdam, and it is called Waterlooplein. The flea market is a landmark of the city, and for good reason: here you can find much more artifacts than in neighboring countries. In the 19th century, the Jewish market was located on this site, which was subsequently closed due to the war. Then, in the late 40s, trade began here again, but with antiques. During the year, Waterlooplein holds the title of the most famous flea market in the country, only for 1 day, on the Queen's birthday, the city is exempt from the duty on street trading, and the whole of Amsterdam becomes one single flea market. It works every day except Sunday.

To be honest, it disappointed me a little. But I needed crockery and home or garden decor items. Before this market, which is highly praised in all reports or guidebooks, I have been to smaller ones in Belgium, Germany and Lux. So Amster itself is a bunch of blacks with some kind of household mobile garbage-charging, phones, modern crap. A lot of new clothes, in African style, all with those blacks ... Really, there weren’t many old things - men with books and paintings were sitting in a separate street - they had space prices (for such a place). And there were only a few sensible tents with antiques among these blacks. Prices were normal and you can bargain. They somehow easily drop everything to a certain price and then nothing at all ... I think there may well be a watch, but you need to understand well so that you do not slip non-working Chinese garbage. I liked shopping in the old days in Belgian Bruges and Durbuy and in the center of Luxembourg. This is for every firefighter

Thank you very much.
I also googled the Noordermarkt in the Nooderkerk church area. They write that the market is smaller, but more sincere. True, there is little information on the assortment, it seems that you will not find watches there http://www.iamsterdam.com/en-GB/Ndtrc/Noordermarkt
