The gap

Luxury watches deserved better protection.

Traditional home insurance often undercovers high-value timepieces. TimeCare embeds cover at purchase and uses blockchain to prove ownership.

Before TimeCare

  • Insurance disconnected from purchaseOwners bought a watch, then had to arrange cover separately — friction at the moment of highest intent.
  • Ownership hard to provePaper certificates and receipts were easy to lose; authenticity and ownership were difficult to verify after theft.
  • High-value gaps at homeStandard policies often cap or exclude luxury items — leaving serious collectors underinsured.

After TimeCare

  • Cover at point of saleSelect Oriental Watch members enroll digitally when they buy — insurance woven into the purchase journey.
  • Blockchain ownership recordSales records, certificates, and policy details stored on an immutable ledger — transparent and secure.
  • Up to HK$50,000 per watchTheft, burglary, and robbery covered worldwide — with a digital vault for policy and watch records.
