Our Story - The Journey Behind TimeTells

It all began with a single transaction.

A Tudor Black Bay 79220N exchanged hands between two passionate collectors, Karl and Caleb. A reference cherished for its rarity and cult following, it didn’t just mark the start of a deal — it sparked a friendship, and more importantly, a shared vision:

To create a timepiece platform built by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts.

From that one exchange, TimeTells was born — a place where collectors at every stage could feel at home. Whether you’re buying your first piece or refining a seasoned collection, we believe that the journey should feel as meaningful as the watches themselves.

More Than Just Timekeeping

We believe that every watch tells a personal story — a milestone celebrated, a memory locked in time, a legacy passed down.

But we also understand that collections evolve. Tastes change. And sometimes, watches deserve a new chapter with someone who will appreciate them just as much.

That’s where we come in.
TimeTells exists as a trusted bridge between passionate owners and eager watch collectors — ensuring that each timepiece finds the right wrist, at the right moment.

What We Stand For

We're not just here to facilitate sales.
We're here to offer honest advice, collector-to-collector guidance, and a shared appreciation for the craftsmanship that makes this passion so enduring.

Every interaction we have — whether it's sourcing a grail, sharing market insights, or simply chatting about our favourite references — is shaped by the same enthusiasm that got us started.

This Is Just the Beginning

The story of TimeTells is still being written — and it's one we’re building with you, for you, our growing community.
