One exclusive, high end timepiece and jewelry dealer not already mentioned that can be added to the list is Jacob & Company—with boutiques only in NYC and Miami (Bal Harbour)....carried by timepiece retailers (not exclusive boutiques) in Vegas and Boston (Everett):

One more exclusive luxury watch retailer (timepieces starting from $14,000 to $250,000 and $1M with 2-4 year waits and only 500-1200 units produced per year) with boutiques only in 3 US cities—NYC, LA and Miami:
City of Philadelphia shopping is abysmal, especially for a city of its size. Metro is right where it should be with its retail offerings, in line with other major metros.
As far as true downtown (walk-able) shopping districts with the best and most offerings...
1. New York (by far)
2. Chicago
3. LA
4/5. Boston or San Francisco
6. Miami
7. Vegas
8. DC
Houston, Dallas, Atlanta don't offer as much walk-ability, and I may be wrong, but I believe they fall in line with Philadelphia where the best and most high-end options are largely in the burbs not the "city" or at least "downtown"?
(I don't know much on Honolulu to comment).
Los Angeles trumps Chicago in shopping by far and is arguably on par with New York City due to all the indoor shopping malls & the access to more high end shopping due to the adjacent cities of Santa Monica & Beverly Hills.
Now if we’re just talking Downtown,Than Chicago is one of the best for sure.But you can’t experience the core of a city by just going through Downtown.
Houston’s Galleria renovation and the River Oaks development have really helped expand their available space for stores. Houston also has an advantage of keeping brands that closes some locations. There’s been multiple instances of a brand closing in Dallas, but keeping their Houston location.

Only surprises to me: Chicago lower than I would have thought; Houston slightly higher than I would have thought but, other than that, top 10 spot on.
Going by the thread tally both Atlanta and DC have 32, so tying them at the 10 spot. I wonder how cities with multiple occasions of store locations is being taken to account, as that certainly changes totals for different cities here.
1. New York (95)
2. Los Angeles (85)
3. Miami/South Florida (82)
4. Houston (64)
5. San Francisco Bay Area (61)
6. Vegas (59)
7. Dallas/Fort Worth (49)
8. Chicago (47)
9. Boston (37)
T-10. Atlanta/Washington DC (32)
I'm really impressed the most by Houston leading the pack after the big 3.

Good catch with DC.
I don’t think a city having multiple locations of the same high end retailer (more so a Brioni, Canali, etc type boutique in limited cities vs a department store chain found in many more) should be penalized. If anything, that is further testament of that city’s ability to support such high end establishments—though it also does tend to favor larger cities.
