Silent Partner Program

Your name on the call. Our experts on the line.

Your staff are hired to sell watches and jewellery, not to explain why a mechanical watch needs a full overhaul. When a repair estimate is ready, a Time Central service advisor calls your customer on your behalf, under your store's name, and walks them through the repair.

  • Sold by specialistsOur advisors speak with watch owners about repairs every day. They can answer the technical questions, explain the value of the work, and turn more estimates into approved repairs.
  • Your brand, your customerWe call as your store's service department. Your customer hears your name, not ours, and the relationship stays yours.
  • Time back for your teamNo phone tag, no chasing approvals. Your staff stay on the sales floor.
  • Follow-up that happensIf the customer needs time to think, we follow up so estimates don't sit unanswered.
  • Full visibilityEvery call, approval and decline is tracked in your retailer portal.
