Best Watch Shops in Paris

I'm going to be in Paris this week. I'm visiting the Patek Salon which is always fun. However, what are the best stores to look at vintage watches? I'm looking for reliable places with variety (Pateks, Vacheron, Omega, etc).

I love Antoine de Macedo on Blvd St Germain (Left Bank). Bought a wonderful Breguet original Aviator XX there.

Have fun.

Antoine de Macedo indeed.
And near the Champs Elysées: MMC and Romain Rea in the same street.

Romain Rea on the left bank will have more vintage. The location off the Champs is more modern.

Chrono passion… they carry:

MB&F
Moser & Cie
Ressence

And many many more. Plus the team there is so hospitable, not snobby, and won’t pressure you

A watchmaker there spent an hour breaking down a Ressence’s internals and how it works. He didn’t ask me whether I was interested in buying anything a single time. Will always go back when I’m in town!
