About Taming Lab
Operator of WhatTime, a global B2B luxury watch re-commerce platform designed to deliver instant liquidity at competitive prices. Unlike traditional resale channels—where peer-to-peer transactions are slow and dealer buybacks undervalue assets—WhatTime combines speed with high-value outcomes. The platform sources pre-owned watches from domestic sellers through a real-time appraisal and pricing engine, then connects listings to a vetted global buyer network spanning Japan, Germany, Hong Kong, and China, with more than 20 secondary resellers across four countries. By doing so, WhatTime enables sellers to capture 90–105% of typical C2C listing prices with a transaction success rate above 70%, while completing the entire resale process in as little as one hour.
