[Orig.: Hebrew/Yiddish TAHM, TAH-ahm] n. (culinarily and metaphorically)
Style, A taste, flavor; bli tam = no taste;

We are two young brothers from Munich who established themselves as dealers of vintage and collectable timepieces over the last couple of years. We started off our business under the name Just In Time, built our international network of dealers and collectors, and ultimately gained valuable experience in the world of handling vintage watches.

 

We noticed the fact that most watch dealers have a somewhat similar approach in terms of their website or depiction of watches. Therefore, we are striving to give the whole thing a younger look and feel. We are convinced that watches are an important staple of nowadays pop culture, but that they’re also essential items when it comes to living and embodying one’s own style.

 

This happens under our new brand TA’AM, which is an all-encompassing way of life, with the literal meaning of taste. We are excited to start this new venture and of what the future holds. Feel free to reach out for all things watches, but also general requests are more than welcome.
