A great place to get a gift for a special someone. Or yourself! They have a variety of styles from…read moretrendy to more classic pieces, costume (or paste) jewellery to semiprecious stones! Good taste with fair prices is not easy to find in Paris! I was helped by the owner herself. She was very friendly, helpful and patient as I tried on many different styles before I chose a super cute pair of earrings. Looking forward to an excuse to go back!

I Visited this shop with my girlfriend for her 24th birthday today as I was attempting to purchase…read morea ring for her as a gift. The shop owner was extremely disrespectful and refused to let us buy anything. I believe it is because of the way we look. It is my belief that the owner of the store is a racist, and that she does not deserve your hard earned money. Never in my life have I been disrespected in such a way by a sales person. I'm just glad I didn't spend €300 on one of her rings, because I would've forever regretted supporting a business that treats their customers like this. Take your business somewhere you'll be appreciated.

I have visited Antoine de Macedo Horloger a few times now, in search of my third (and hopefully)…read morelast major watch purchase. While I have yet to make the leap, I have found their sales people absolutely friendly and patient. Because Antoine de Macedo sells mostly used watches, it is difficult to tell in advance what will come in. I really hope they are carrying the next watch that speaks to me. [Note to store: you can almost guarantee a purchase if you get your hands on a IWC Mark XII from the 90's, with box and papers.] The first time I came to the store, my JLC Reverso had become de-magnetised, and was just a little off, probably losing up to 2 minutes a day. I brought it into the store, and their in-house repair people happily fixed it at no charge at all. A note however to Parisien tourists: you do not get a VAT refund for used goods.

They will perform service on your watch while you wait - and while it may not be "reasonable" in…read morethe sense of roughly being 4-5 times the simple cost of the battery, you're not going to know how to open your watch. They also take the time to clean it while they are in there. Be prepared to spend 25€ but you'll also get a two year guarantee with that.

A very kind welcome, fast and very good service in few minutes. Address you must have.read more

You have a laptop, you need to work, and you're sick of doing it at home or in a cafe where they…read morekick you out when the lunch crowd rolls in? If you're a mobile professional in Paris then you're probably shaking your head frantically right now because you and I know how hard it is to find a cool, productive spot with good WIFI in this city! La Cantine is one of the few work share spaces in Paris that is open to all, comfortable, quiet, centrally located and reasonably priced. Opened mon-friday from 8am to 11pm, you can swing on by with your laptop and power cord, grab a seat and get to work! Even on busy days there's always room to squeeze in. The atmosphere has a college campus feel to it with just enough going on around to make you feel part of a community, but with the quiet at calm to keep you focused on work. There's also a little cafe corner with cheap coffee and snacks to keep you alert and satiated. Prices: 7E for a half-day and 10E for a whole day with monthly plans available on request.

I went there first time for the WordCamp event last May. What can I say? LaCantine is the place…read morewhere every geek should go, you'll have the chance to attend to very interesting conferences and you'll meet very brilliant and passionates people who share the same interests than you!

I needed some service work done on a macbook and didn't want to deal with the Louvre so I thought…read morethat I would check out the Opéra store. The building is magnificent, not the usual glass, white-walled Apple store, but a restoration of a beautiful old bank. Complete with spiral staircases, marble and tile floors, wrought-iron railings, and a huge skylight, the store itself is a work of art. The display space for iphones, ipads, and computers is big enough to be accessible even with the huge crowds this store can draw. I had made a Genius Bar reservation online so I didn't have to wait but I would not advise just showing up and hoping to be served as the store was packed on both visits. The Genius Bar tech was incredibly friendly and competent. The other techs that I saw were incredibly patient given the questions that people were asking them. The Macbook was under European consumer warranty even if no longer covered by Applecare but the tech said they could still provide the 400€ motherboard replacement for free (instead of having to pass through Darty where it was purchased). All said, another fantastic Apple support experience by a courteous, competent and efficient staff.

I left my computer in this place a month ago. I was in Paris on holiday. I told the business owner…read moreI needed to collect computer by leaving time otherwise better to fix at home. I turned up at the agreed time. The machine was is pieces on his desk. I had received no communication from him. I was offered no opportunity to have the machine sent to me at a later date so I had to COME BACK to Paris from London to collect it. I told him VERY clearly the dates. I was assured it will be ready. It was not. As I write this it seems unbelievable. I came back the FOLLOWING weekend and it still wasn't ready. I was in shock and didn't have anyone in France who could help me deal with it. I went back to England. The man assured me I would have my computer within 2 days by mail. Two weeks later I have no computer and no information from him about when it will arrive. For a while, he gave me dates. Now he has gone completely quiet. I have no idea what to do. I guess I have to go to the police. It's absurd. Good luck if you choose to go here and DEFINITELY DON'T GO IF YOU ARE A TOURIST. The man is not a bad person but he's not reliable.
