You won't have enough time to see all the watch places in Geneva but I would go to Patek, Rolex for starters....Frank Mueller might be fun too....there are watches everywhere - enjoy, have fun and show us what you buy!

I would take a day and go to Chamonix, France. Fairly close to Geneva, and one of the most beautiful places on earth. It might not be the ideal time of year to go and site-see, but if you run out of things to do........fantastic snowskiing I would say.......

Obviously, this was taken a different time of year, but I absolutely love that place.

Vistied Bucherer. Got a band adjustment on my GMT for free. Some mighty fine pieces in there! Patek museum is closed until Jan 14 :(
