How does buying from us work?

You get in touch with us about the watch you want. Together we agree how you pay and how the watch reaches you: collection in Utrecht or delivery. We do not do the latter through ordinary post as a matter of course, because a luxury watch does not belong there.

On a watch of this value, shipping is not a routine operation. So this page carries no fixed delivery time and no carrier: we agree with you how it goes, and that differs by order and by destination.

Collection in Utrecht

The simplest route. You come to Amsterdamsestraatweg 251, look at the watch once more and take it home. Wednesday and Thursday from 12:00 to 17:00 without an appointment, all other days by appointment, weekends included.

Abroad

We do business worldwide and our Chrono24 profile is international. A great deal can be arranged; get in touch about what is possible in your case before you buy.

Are you selling to us instead?

Then it works the other way round and costs you nothing. We ship insured and pay for that delivery ourselves, including when you send your watch from abroad.

  1. first

    You get in touch

    Call, message or email us about the watch you want. Together we agree how you pay.

  2. once agreed

    The watch is yours

    It comes out of stock, and we agree how it reaches you: collection in Utrecht or delivery, and for delivery how we do it.

  3. by arrangement
