Exclusive Chrono

The toy store for men.

In the past, a watch was worn on the wrist. Today a watch is so much more. Whether it’s a collector's item, a jewel or a valuable investment... Watches are interesting for everyone.

In 2009, Exclusive Chrono (previously Dikkeklokken.com) started selling and purchasing exclusive watches. What used to be a hobby quickly turned into a European succes.

Sven Otten, founder of Exclusive Chrono, is also famous from the Peppermill in Heerlen: a nightclub that was widely known for its legendary parties. In 2015 the Peppermill closed its doors after 35 beautiful years.

“It was never my plan to become a watch trader. But it suits me. I had been trading precious watches for quite some time as a collector and so I already had considerable knowledge about this world. I started with only four watches from my own collection yet soon I had 20. That was the beginning of Dikkeklokken.com.

Watches are very popular right now. The precious models increase in value every three months. Rolex is rising even faster than Bitcoin. But the value of Rolex is stable, unlike Bitcoin. The supply is low and the demand is increasing. That is why I want to lead the way with our range. Every day I am selecting the finest models for the best price.

It’s a small world, so it’s extremely important to provide good and reliable service. A lot of goods that are almost indistinguishable from the real thing are in circulation. A mistake is easily made. We have the knowledge to check the authenticity and always offer an authenticity guarantee. In addition, our watchmaker restores the models before they are offered for sale.

We continue to grow every year. At the moment we have two branches in Kerkrade and one in Mallorca. The shops are a true toy store for men. People even fly off to Mallorca to buy a new model. That’s amazing to see.”
