IN-DEPTH: The Glashütte Original Senator Cosmopolite in Steel - a study in complex elegance
The story in a second: It’s big, it’s complicated, it’s bloody clever. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: I’ve got a real soft spot for German watchmaking, but especially for Glashütte Original. Underappreciated, and painfully under-marketed anywhere outside of Europe, they are one of VERY few brands that manufacture their own dials … ContinuedThe post IN-DEPTH: The Glashütte Original Senator Cosmopolite in Steel – a study in complex elegance appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Polaris Date - a happy middle ground
There’s a lot of options in Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Polaris collection. But I think this one might be my favourite, the Polaris Date. It’s a choice purists might find a little weird. After all, this is an uncomplicated watch, lacking either the classic alarm or the more impressive chronograph/world timer functionality. And while it’s not particularly complicated, … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Polaris Date - a happy middle ground appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
