Misschien wel weer deze editie.

Present deze editie, zelfs met eigen stand! Niet geheel vintage maar toch lijkt het me leuk om andere leden er te ontmoeten!

Wat leuk! Ik zie er naar uit! Hoor al jaaaren van een groot deel van mijn klanten dat het tijd wordt dat ik er ook eens ga staan. Na de retailbeurs van dit jaar heb ik ook een mooi display dus leek het me tijd om te luisteren.

Normaliter kwam ik niet verder dan de kantine haha.

Jazeker! Was mijn eerste keer op een dergelijke beurs met Brunmontagne, top ervaring :).

Was je er toevallig ook?

For sure you can. 99% of the Dutch master the English language well enough

Almost Sunday! And which watch (or WATCHES!) are you wearing? ⌚️

I’m still thinking which one. At the end probably just matching to my clothes or just take a Casio. 🤭

I will be there too, with my wife! She is not a watch person but I will drag her along, of course! Guys I have a question, what's with the parking around Expo? Is there enough space or is it possible that there are no free spots?

And also should we buy tickets or just buying them on the entrance?

Yepp, thanks! I did a few mins ago 😉

Plan to stop by as well; look forward to seeing you there 👍🏻

Here now. Quite a lot to see — but not exactly in an ordered fashion 😂 Most stand holders make do with large watch boxes with a truckload of watches thrown in - no brand/type/year division whatsoever… Takes a lot of close-up browsing to identify the gems :) Did spot one though, a 1970 Omega Seamaster date with the C-shaped case…bit pricey though…

Same for me. Very busy, which causes you can’t really check everything out. Many watch boxes with all sorts of watches. Not very structured.

Nevertheless cool to check it once out. Don’t know if I would go another time this year. Maybe once a year event for me. 🙂

Aye, same here…fun to be there, and meet up with @Brunmontagne (cool watches btw!), but too unstructured (and indeed crowded) for a proper treasure hunt

I would say, let’s do some other time, maybe in the summer, do a proper meet-up with a part of our own collection!

In style of, take your watch roll, pick 3 to show off + 1 on the wrist. Meet-up at a nice café, somewhere central in The Netherlands, Utrecht/Den Bosch.

Who’s in? 😎
