PARIS TIME. That’s it, we’ve switched to summer time! Not sure which needle to dance to? Here is the exact time in the capital in France in real time.
[Mis à jour le 27 mars 2022 à 03h01] What time is it ? This question becomes very important after the time change, the one that made us switch to summer time 2022 at two o’clock in the morning this Sunday, March 27. A one-hour shift has indeed turned our clocks upside down. And it was well forward that the hands jumped, landing us instantly at three o’clock in the morning (it’s the opposite when switching to winter time). Result: when you wake up, the electronic devices show one more hour on the counter.
If the double seasonal time change has been in place in France for more than four decades, confusion still exists among the inhabitants of France between winter and summer time changes. If therefore, on March 27, you no longer know which dial to devote yourself to, check what time it is thanks to the new summer time in Paris, which is displayed black on white on our page thanks to the module below -below. Further down in this practical guide, we direct you on the procedure to follow to know the real time according to the device concerned. You will know which ones manage to change the time on their own, and which ones need your intervention to set the record straight.
We have integrated this module into our page from the specialized site WebHorloge.frwhich displays live Paris time.
To stay up to date with the exact time in France, even with the transition to summer time, it is not necessarily necessary to set the clocks on time, by respecting the invariable rules of the time change. (the hand advances one hour in summer, moves back one hour in winter). Some devices update themselves such as smartphones, tablets, computers, alarm clocks, decoders, watches, but also the clocks of certain cars and certain household appliances, provided they are “intelligent”, in other words “connected”. For all that is analog, on the other hand, it is necessary to act. OvenTV, microwave, radio alarm clock, telephone, watch or even the dining room clock… Each appliance in the house thus gives its time, some resetting themselves to the correct “timing” automatically, others not, making us doubt the “official” time display, the one to believe in.
It’s not just when the time changes that knowing the exact time is crucial. Everyone has already experienced the following situation: your watch slows down, your pendulum advances, etc. If a few minutes early are rarely of consequence, a few minutes late can cause embarrassment. And no matter how much we go looking for the time around us, cell phones, watches and alarm clocks are far from all displaying the same time.
