On the occasion of the 43rd edition of Heritage Days, Bucherer opens its doors to watch lovers on Saturday, September 19, 2026. A chance to admire legendary timepieces from every angle at this exceptional gathering.

Tic tac! The moment for the Journées Européennes du Patrimoine 2026 is nearly upon us, the event that lets you dive into France’s most majestic sites—and the most exclusive venues as well. In Paris, you’ll need to chart a smart itinerary if you want two days to take in the capital’s abundant treasures. Monuments, museums, workshops, there’s no shortage of wonders to discover!

And there, on rue du Capucines in the 9th arrondissement, Maison Bucherer opens its doors and joins the 43rd edition of the Heritage Days in Paris 2026. Step into the wood-clad shop and immerse yourself in the wonderful world of horology.

The Bucherer adventure began in 1888 with the first store opening in Lucerne and proliferated in 1924, when the creators' son signed a partnership with Rolex, one of the most famous watch brands in the world today. In 2013, Bucherer celebrated its 125th anniversary and opened the world's largest watch and jewelry boutique in Paris. Today, Bucherer is Europe's largest watch and jewelry brand.
