Terry Root

CEO and Founder of Hart Time Terry Root has over 15 years in the watch industry and luxury retail. In this time he has not only built up an enormous amount of knowledge about buying and selling luxury watches but also a substantial client database of watch collectors and horologists alike.

As an ex-head of purchasing at Watchfinder and head of commercial at Chrono24 UK Terry knows watches and specifically knows the pre-owned watch market. This puts Hart Time in a unique position to be able to offer the weight of experience of a larger watch dealer in a boutique and bespoke service for clients in Kent and the South East.

Terry’s passion is connecting people with their first or next dream watch. Whether the individual is a collector or someone fulfilling a lifelong ambition to own a luxury watch it is the joy of finding the right watch for them that is the driving force behind Hart Time.
