VIDEO: Vacheron Constantin 2017 collection – the most complicated of SIHH

Vacheron Constantin bucked the trend this year at SIHH. While many of their fellow exhibitors played it safe, bringing out crowd-pleasing steel models and revisiting their greatest hits, Vacheron Constantin walked another path, with a collection focused at the very highest end of horology. Not only did they offer mind-numbingly complex astronomical grand complication and a … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Vacheron Constantin 2017 collection – the most complicated of SIHH appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

LIST: The 9 best Patek Philippe photos we have ever taken

When you really fall for someone, there’s a point where you just can’t get close enough. It’s the same with Patek Philippe. Over the years, we’ve photographed a wide range of their models, and the closer the shot, the tighter the macro, it’s almost always a case of the more magnified the wonder. These are our favourite … ContinuedThe post LIST: The 9 best Patek Philippe photos we have ever taken appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Return of a legend – the Halios Puck II

Over the years, I’ve worn many (many) watches for review purposes, and to be honest it’s rare that I’m still thinking about that watch months or years after the fact. The Puck, from Canadian micro-brand Halios, is one of the rare exceptions. I wrote up the DLC version of the original Puck over on Hodinkee, way … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Return of a legend – the Halios Puck II appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Girard-Perregaux 2017 collection – the biggest controversy at SIHH?

While the watches at SIHH change every year, one thing stays reassuringly the same, and that is the drama surrounding them. Sometimes it’s big, like the deregulation of the Swiss Franc. Sometimes it’s small, like a brand being a little too obsfucatory in a press release over the origins of a movement. This year everyone’s tongues seemed … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Girard-Perregaux 2017 collection – the biggest controversy at SIHH? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Hublot epitomises elegance with the Classic Fusion King Gold

Throw the word ‘Hublot’ into conversation, and all too often the topic can find itself steered down a path toward a couple of broad stereotypes. You know what we’re talking about. It’s the kind of statement that says “Hublot makes nothing but large, skeletonised statement pieces in unusual materials, for rappers,” for example. And you know what? … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Hublot epitomises elegance with the Classic Fusion King Gold appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Last year we were privileged to get two passionate TAG Heuer experts in a room together to talk openly about some of the most controversial topics in the game today. One of those men was TAG Heuer CEO Jean-Claude Biver, and the other was founder of Calibre 11 and co-founder of Time+Tide, David Chalmers.

HANDS-ON: the Girard-Perregaux Cat’s Eye Power Reserve – what a difference a grey makes

In the spectrum of colour, grey is quite the double agent. There it goes, trudging along amid notions of overcast skies, mind-numbing office cubicles, uncertainty. But just as we’re all stifling a yawn at its inherent dowdiness, what’s this we see? There goes grey playing its other hand in a realm populated by wolves and … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: the Girard-Perregaux Cat’s Eye Power Reserve – what a difference a grey makes appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 3rd March, 2017

It’s been a mildly epic week here at T+T HQ. We’ve had a full plate of videography, airshow action with Oris (we’re now investigating options around leasing a Pilatus private jet – don’t tell our accountant), and Felix is becoming worryingly attached to the Apple Watch he’s reviewing. On top of all this, the logisitical nightmare that is … ContinuedThe post FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 3rd March, 2017 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EXCLUSIVE: Hands-on with the Oris Royal Flying Doctor Service Limited Edition II, live from the Avalon airshow

When it comes to partnerships, there are a few routes watch brands typically embark on. There’s the celebrity ambassador, which is often little more than name awareness and a few key appearances. Then there’s the high-profile event tie-in, which usually results in a limited edition with a few dial tweaks. And there’s the organisational partnership, which, … ContinuedThe post EXCLUSIVE: Hands-on with the Oris Royal Flying Doctor Service Limited Edition II, live from the Avalon airshow appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Dust off your fedora Indiana, we’re going into the archives… Longines is a brand whose history the Time+Tide team has delved into before – pretty much every time they release an often best-in-show heritage reissue –  and frankly, we haven’t been able to get enough.
