2 Best Shopping in Dubai, United Arab Emirates

A collage of Paris and the Middle East, with a layout out of the pages of a glossy magazine, Comptoir is known for directing residents toward style and class. This concept store has a café, which focuses on healthy eating, with a leaning toward macrobiotic cuisine, and they source food from local organic farms where possible. The highlight is their collection of jewelry, which is diverse and different, selected by Vogue as one of the top selections in the world. There are also housewares, furniture, and clothing available, all completely individual and exclusive.

While the rest of Dubai is about all what is new and shiny, Momentum's specialty is vintage timepieces. They also have a range of very rare new pieces and unusual accessories, making it a true collectors destination. Sales are only part of the business. Momentum also promote Dubai Watch Week, and are associated with Dubai's only watch collectors community. With dedicated horologists rather than just jewelry salespeople, this is also the best place in Dubai to get your watch fixed, completely overhauled, or even sold (by consignment).
