Unfortunately not ... 😟

Ich would love to see early Dutch pocket watches like this one (my only one, made by Hermanus Caspari, Leyden). There is a brilliant book about Dutch watches of the 17th and 18th century, unfortunately in Dutch only, but the photos 🥰

I am sure she would, we are happy to see an increasing number of ladies visiting together with their husband/partner

'Hollandse Horloges' written by Cees Peeters, ISBN: 9789074083034, written 2012.

Covers watches (Dutch only!) from 1580 to 1786, a really lovely book and well worth the price. Comprises also a comprehensive list of Dutch makers and examples of this period.
