Rikketik

Rikketik is the largest vintage watch and clock fair in Europe. This awesome event takes place four times per year in the Netherlands, a large building designed to host such exhibitions and expos. Thanks to this venue there is no shortage of space, either for those visiting or for those who participate as dealers at this fair. This is just as well since over 10,000 visitors attend this event and hundreds of dealers take part. It is definitely the fair of the year for anyone with an interest in vintage watches and everything associated with them!

At the Rikketik fairs, visitors can expect to find vintage wrist watches, pocket watches, clocks, alarm clocks, parts, accessories, books, straps, tools, and everything that has to do with watches and clocks. Collectors of such items will be completely spoiled for choice when faced with the exhibitions of so many dealers specialized in this area. This fair is made for horologists, from hobbyists to professionals. Since each dealer is a fellow enthusiast of vintage timepieces, it is the perfect place to come with any questions about anything from brands to main springs! The dealers are happy to share their knowledge and their passion for these wonderful pieces of clockwork.

Rikketik only takes place on a Sunday four times a year. Therefore, you will want to arrive as early as possible to make the most of this day. It is possible to subscribe to Rikketik and receive a magazine quarterly for the real enthusiast, full of interesting items. As a subscriber, another perk is early access to the vintage watch fair with a special ticket. You will be admitted half an hour before the other ‘Early Bird’ ticket holders, and a full 90 minutes earlier than the general public. It is certainly a treat to be able to see these amazing exhibitions, whatever time of the day you can make it to this fair!
