Our  Story

In hopes of keeping alive his family's skilled labor tradition of watch repair, Peter Kartounian decided to pool together his limited financial resoures into a retail establishment he named: Tic Time.  The store's intention was - and is - to provide customers with a destination for quality timepieces, repair and knowledge. 

Since 1986, Tic Time Watch Specialty Store has been the market share leader for independent watch retailers in Southern California.  Tic Time's staff is friendly, well-educated, and eager to assist guests with all watch inquiries.  Our mission is simple: to share our passion, knowledge and subject matter expertise of timepieces.
