About EMB Holding B.V.

A Netherlands-based organisation presenting professional and educational information around watch repair, restoration, collecting and horological history.

Our purpose

Respect for objects, owners and provenance

EMB Holding B.V. approaches watch-related work with a conservation-minded philosophy. The purpose of the site is to help clients understand service options, prepare for an assessment, learn the difference between repair and restoration, and explore the historical context of watches without exaggerated promises.

The website is intended for audiences across the Netherlands, including Nieuwegein and surrounding regions, while keeping the language clear enough for first-time owners and detailed enough for established enthusiasts.
