I have lived and worked in Paris for decades.
Paris is just like many other big cities, with the recent problem of yellow jackets on Saturdays, though. I'd wear a SS Rolex quite anywhere, but as for PM (I have a 16618, a YG Datejust, also had a YG Day Date) I would be more prudent. No problem in the day light, no problem in the metro when there are lot of people, but be more prudent at night would be my advise. |

He asked about Paris. He didn't ask if it was more or less risky than Detroit, London, Cleveland or Beruit. He wasn't even asking whether he should take his watch or go at all, he was just telling us what his plans were.
Nothing anyone said about Paris was untrue, just good advice that would have been the same if he asked about visiting any other large international city as a tourist. |

Btw, if you need some hotel recommendations, shoot me a PM. We always stay in the 7th and I can recommend some great hotels and restaurants, and a watch shop or two.

Paris is like any other city...use common sense and you'll be fine. At this point, worrying about a random terrorist attack in France is more of a concern than someone robbing you out of your Rolex..
