Best overlap: 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM in Paris is 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM in Istanbul.
Aim for 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Paris time — that's 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM over in Istanbul. With 9 hours of daily overlap, these two cities are an easy pairing; almost any reasonable hour works. Finally, Paris observes daylight saving and Istanbul doesn't, so this window shifts by an hour for part of the year — recheck it each spring and autumn.
