"In Paris, access trumps price. Our clients seek the unobtainable piece, the private appointment with the designer, the bypassed waiting list. Luxury personal shopping is not a purchasing service: it is a service of access and time."

Watch & Jewellery Sourcing — Place Vendôme
Place Vendôme and rue de la Paix remain the global epicentre of fine watchmaking and jewellery. In 2026, the collectible watch market (Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet) stays tight: the most sought-after models trade above retail, with multi-year waiting lists at official boutiques. AC Private supports the sourcing of new and vintage pieces, authentication, introductions to trusted houses and dealers, and access to private sales.
