Carmel-by-the-Sea is about one mile square but you’ll make a mistake if you rush through its downtown because most of its art galleries and retailers are charming and offer unique merchandise. A great example is beneath this outdoor clock on Ocean Drive and Lincoln Street. Inside Fourtané Jewelers you’ll find over 150 vintage Rolex watches including several historic ones. They also have over 300 new timepieces by the luxury Swiss watchmaker. Together, this collection is one of the best in the world.
