Which Geneva Location?

Hi all,

I'm headed to Geneva next week and plan on stopping by AP and Patek (Museum and boutique).

I see that AP has a few locations, which one is the one not to miss?


Thanks as always!!

The one in Le Brassus

Seriously, the one in the Kempinski I think is being remodeled (but may still be open), but closer one to Patek etc is on Rue de Rhone area.

I know! I'd love to go to Le Brassus!! :)

So there's not a significant difference between:
GENEVA PLACE DE LA FUSTERIE and GENEVA MONTRES PRESTIGE (Hotel Kempinski)? I have the time to go to either, but not both. If it's a toss up, I'll go to LA FUSTERIE since it's closer to Patek as you mentioned.

It would be great to have some opinions on this -- thanks all!

GENEVA PLACE DE LA FUSTERIE 100% as you can walk to Patek from there and about 50 other Boutiques. Kempinski location has AP and RM Boutiques and is far from Patek.

Absolutely correct.

a stroll down Rue du Rhône will amply serve your needs from the pont du Mont Blanc all the way to the Patek store and Bucherer. Don't forget a great cheese fondue at the Café des Armures in the Old City either.
I must add that Bahnhof Strasse in Zurich is pretty awesome too for shopping in situ, especially if you fly into ZRH airport; very easy to take train there.

Excellent, thanks for the suggestion! I just looked up the Cafe - sounds great. Fondue it is!
