Looking at a watch
Pay attention to dial, case and controls, and ask what explanation is given for a particular piece. Such features can offer a way into both the design and the use of a timepiece.
A specific interest
If you are particularly interested in a brand, period or technique, you can say so in advance. Have it confirmed whether that subject can be covered during the visit.
A personal tour
A private collection does not necessarily have a fixed public route. When you get in touch, discuss how much time is available and whether guidance is part of the appointment.
Before you go
Confirm the date, address and accessibility before you go to Koestraat. There is no open weekly schedule; an address listed online is not an invitation to walk in without an appointment.
