Greetings fellow watch enthusiasts!

Hi everyone!  Some of you may know me from my ongoing television career, but for those who may not I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself.

My name is Tim Temple, and I have been in the video retail industry for almost 25 years.  Watches have been a fascination for most of my adult life, so when the opportunity came about in 1998 to begin presenting watches via television in 1998 I jumped at the chance.  That show started late night every Wednesday evening (1a eastern time) on ValueVision.  I along with a guest were presenting antique watches at the time; of course we had no idea as to the size of the empire we were in process of creating.

That show continued to grow in success, thus garnering more airtime, which led to more success, and so on.  ValueVision became ShopNBC, and I continued to host their watch program well into 2004.  Subsequently I have built additional programs for WSS, ShopAtHome, and Jewelry Television.  Research has taken me to 9 of the last ten Basel Watch Fairs and JCK Vegas events, as well as studying abroad in Switzerland, Russia, China, and Hong Kong.

I begin this blog in the hopes of being able to share both thoughts and reviews on individual watches and brands, as well as the industry at large.  I hope you will enjoy your visit, and I invite you to bookmark it and participate as you would like.

Thank you for being part of the ongoing adventure in watches.

Most Sincerely,

Tim Temple
