Okay, just landed in Paris, where should I go for pre owned pieces
Just got to Paris with the wife, she's a French professor, I'm just along for the ride. I've been 5 or 6 times but interested in suggestions outside of the normal boutiques that won't have anything anyway. Looking for a couple of suggestions for pre owned pieces. I've got 8ndsysband we're staying in the 6th.
Thanks! Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk |

I would recommend M.M.C. located 9 rue Marbeuf, Paris 08, between the Seine river and the Champs Elysées.
They should be opened on Monday 6, as from 10AM. They have a web site where you could see what is their current stock (Google "MMC Rolex" or "MMC Paris Rolex"). |

Paris Shmaris, get on the Eurostar and come up to London at least for a couple of days, lots of used shops here, but they are not cheap.

I always stay at the Renaissance Vendome hotel, off topic but important, the restaurant there is amazing for dinner. The chefs are amazing and it is a really fun place to eat. Very lively, we always have a blast.

Watch hunting is fun. But in Paris I would suggest visiting two patisseries for every watch shop you visit.

On top of the great places already mentioned, pass by Olivine Prestige, 6 rue de Tocqueville.

I just walked by M.M.C. in Paris. Lots of interesting pieces in their window, but the prices were a bit painful (U.S.$ 16,500 equivalent for a BLNR GMT): |
