After my studies and certificates of Leisure and Hospatality and Communication. I started in 2017 with Ent. Event an Entertainment and Event business till jan. 2020 when I was forced to shut it down because of the Covid lockdown.
After this bump in the road I started a partyshot brand and a local bar, from 2020 till 2023 we created the most amazing nights from this local and cozy bar.
One of my co workers (Maurice) wanted to start a brand with me and the idea of GIMA was born.
After a long period of testing and learning GIMA was brought to life in July 2023.
As I always say: Don't be to perfect, and don't wait to long to bring the first copy on the market, Bring it soon and finetune on the way. And so we did!
We found a watchmaker and learned the craft. After that we found a watchmaker and also a suplier, and brought our first prototypes on the market, it didn't take long before the first jeweler was in. Now it's time to fine tune and get the name out on the market.
Maurice has a keen technical eye and extensive knowledge of watchmaking. Our brand stands out through its unique concept and top-quality timepieces. After i quit working as a car mechanic i worked as bartender at the bar of Gijs.
Here I learned about Gijs's branding skills and saw that i wanted to do something like that. So we brainstormed about a business idea in which we could combine our skills, and so we came to the watches: Branding & Mechanics.
It was like a handshake, I am the person to examine the quality and mechanics. is everything working fine and is everything in the right place? I will notice it in a second.

In 2022, our story began in a cozy bar called the Kailabar. After Maurice’s accident, we were searching for something extra, and the idea of watches, which had been sitting in a drawer for three years, became a reality. With some adjustmentss, GIMA was born, specializing in luxury goods, particularly watches. Without any idea where to start, we simply took the plunge. Despite facing numerous challenges and learning moments, we have experienced tremendous growth in a short span of time.
Our growth and milestones are a result of perseverance and valuable connections. We connected with a master watchmaker who revealed the secrets of the craft. Through our network, we made further progress and found a supplier that met our high-quality standards and could bring our unique concept to life. Our next milestone will be the retail of our watch worldwide.
