The atelier

Boutique and bench, under one roof.

Meet the watchmakers, the craft and the values behind every WATCHWORKS piece.

The atelier

Where the work is slow on purpose.

WATCHWORKS is a boutique and a bench under one roof. Movements are assembled, adjusted and finished by hand — anglage, black polish, hand-laid lume — because the details you never see are the ones that last. Nothing leaves until it keeps good time.

“A great watch is finished by hand, or it is not finished at all.”Elias Verhoeven
The people

Hands you can trust your watch to.

Master watchmaker

Elias Verhoeven

Twenty-two years at the bench and founder of the atelier. Elias assembles and regulates every in-house movement personally.

Restorer

Marguerite Sol

Marguerite brings tired and inherited watches back to life — sourcing period-correct parts and refinishing by hand.

Boutique host

Tom de Vries

Tom guides first visits, private viewings and hand-ins — unhurried, honest advice with no pressure to buy.

What we stand for

Four quiet promises.

Hand-finishing

Bevelled edges, brushed bridges and polished screw heads — done by hand because machines do not care.

Authenticity

We only sell and service what we can stand behind, with full provenance and honest condition reports.

Discretion

Private viewings by appointment, quiet handling and your details kept strictly to ourselves.

Our guarantee

Five years on new pieces, two on every service — and a bench that is here for the long run.
