About Tim

Tim dates his passion for watches all the way back to his childhood days, where he was being educated on how to tell time. Not only how to tell time, but also how watches work. His grandfather taught him about swiss precision while wearing various Swiss pieces himself.

Tim & Courtier

His love for accurate watches did not only come from his grandfather, his dad always loved nice watches. His dad showed him various catalogs of Swiss watches while traveling and that sparked something inside of him. His dad and his late grandfather are both entrepreneurs and he himself always wanted to become one. That was one big reason to start Courtier. He witnessed excellent service from his dad buying watches from other watch companies and Tim wants to replicate that feeling to as many watch enthusiasts around the world. Why Courtier? He wants to give owing to his father’s and grandfather’s last name ‘Hoveling’ which is translated to Courtier.
