I had a great experience at this watch shop. Beyond their beautiful collection, which changes daily, they can also source a watch that meets your specific needs at fair market prices. The guidance was personal and trustworthy, ultimately leading me to the watch I was looking for—I'm thrilled with it! I will definitely be back in the future.

Several years ago, I was interested in a new AP Royal Oak Offshore. I contacted Jerrel, and he assured me he would find a new one and let me know when he had it. He did. When he got it, he called me and held it until I could come to his shop to pick it up. He didn't even accept a deposit. He trusted me without even knowing me. Although I understand that some people might say the service wasn't very welcoming, I have to say that I found it excellent. I really liked the shop, both its classic, slightly faded style and the wonderful watches they had at the time. The watch was indeed new, in perfect condition, and very reasonably priced. I consider Manbodhwatches to be, or rather, to have been at the time I dealt with them, a highly recommended and reliable place.

Manbodh is a household name in The Hague and a place I keep coming back to. Their prices are excellent and the service is fantastic. I have always been helped well and kindly by both gentlemen. Jerrel is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to Rolex (and probably other brands too 😄). The after-sales service is great, and in my view, they always act with integrity. A huge compliment to Manbodh 👍

This is no ordinary watch shop; the atmosphere, the presentation, everything radiates passion and craftsmanship. It feels like stepping into a luxury time capsule.
They took the time to show me various models.
In the end, I walked out with a beautiful watch, and believe me: the value for money is excellent.
Very satisfied.

Our family was dressed casually and we walked in near closing time. I feel the other one-star reviews are completely untrue. We had some payment issues, but the staff were very patient and helpful, even though it delayed their closing. Regarding the price, while there was no tax refund, it was a great deal for Asian buyers! I don't leave comments often, but after seeing other one-star reviews complaining about attitude, I wanted to set the record straight. 🙂

I don't usually write reviews, but I received such friendly and excellent service here. When I walked into the shop, I immediately recognized the owner from his fun videos. I saw he was busy with a customer, so we agreed I would come back later. This allowed him to really take his time for me, which made me feel truly valued. He mentioned that he has many loyal customers who have been shopping with him for years. It doesn't feel like you're just buying something, but rather having a special experience. If you have a passion for watches, it is definitely worth a visit. They have a very extensive collection. If he doesn't have what you're looking for in stock, he can even help you track it down!
