OUR COMPANY
It is a pleasure to welcome you to your home for antique and vintage watches, where we will accompany you every step of the way to help you find the perfect timepiece that matches your style and personality.
TEMPPUS was founded by Francisco J. Lario, a businessman with over 30 years of experience in the world of commerce, a writer, and a passionate admirer of everything that evokes the charm of the past. The company is based in Málaga, Spain, and specializes in the sale of collectible wristwatches.
“Since childhood, antique watches have captured my attention. My passion began with the legacy of my maternal grandfather’s gold Zenith. Years later, a Tissot 1853 Chronograph gifted by my mother truly sparked my interest, leading me into the professional world of collectible watchmaking.
Today, with a deep commitment to this wonderful passion, I am proud to lead a company like TEMPPUS, where we blend passion, dedication, and expertise in the world of vintage watch collecting. I firmly believe that an antique watch is far more than just an accessory: it is a testimony of time, a work of art that deserves to be preserved for future generations.”
Our Main Purpose
At TEMPPUS, our main commitment is to ensure that each client finds the perfect watch to complement their collection, offering personalized support and dedication at every step of the process.
We strive to provide expert advice to deliver the best possible experience. We carefully select unique watches, inspected by our watchmaking team, guaranteeing the proper functionality and authenticity of every piece.
Over 1,600 positive reviews in the last three years on renowned platforms reflect the trust and satisfaction of our clients.
We offer quality watches suited to different investment levels, maintaining competitive prices based on the condition, history, brand, model, and rarity of each piece.
Our collection includes more than 400 timepieces in constant rotation, spanning from 1930 to 1990. From iconic brands such as Cartier, Girard Perregaux, IWC, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Longines, Omega, Rolex, Seiko, Universal Genève, Zenith, to more affordable yet equally meaningful names like Certina, Orient, Yema, Cauny, Dogma, Duward… We pay special attention to N.O.S. (New Old Stock) watches. Occasionally, we also select modern timepieces that, due to their special features or “Limited Edition” status, have the potential to become future collectibles.
