Our Story

The story behind Tambo Watches and a passion for fine timepieces.

Built on a Passion for Watches.

Tambo Watches was founded in 2005 by Sam Tamborello, turning a lifelong interest in watches into an independent business built around fine timepieces.

Where It Started

My interest in watches started long before Tambo Watches. I remember my grandfather’s steel Rolex Datejust and my father’s collection of watches. As I got older, that interest only grew. My first Heuer diver was a turning point, and the Omega Speedmaster became a particular focus.

Tambo Watches Today

Since 2005, Tambo Watches has specialized in buying and selling fine watches, with a particular focus on pre-owned Omega timepieces.

We also help customers with service needs for watches they already own.

Personal by Design

Tambo Watches is independently owned and operated. When you buy, sell or trade a watch, you’re dealing directly with me.

That personal approach has been at the heart of the business for more than 20 years.
