Australia Day yesterday, Chinese New Year tomorrow – so much partying to be had. But you know what we’re celebrating here in the T+T office? Overcoming jet lag.

For years IWC has staked its claim as being one of the biggest, baddest and most masculine of the major Swiss brands. Recently though, we’ve sensed a change in the wind. In 2014 they released the delicate Portofino, and last year their more petite pilot had women firmly in its sights. That’s set to continue for … ContinuedThe post GONE IN 60 SECONDS: The Da Vinci Automatic shows the gentler side of IWC appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Of all the (many) lists of I’ve put together this year, this is without doubt, the hardest.

The term “World Time” is an integral part of today’s watchmaking vocabulary, but its origins are relatively new in the grand horological scheme of things. Revolution Switzerland’s Sophie Furley takes a look at the history of the Patek Philippe World Time collections and the fascinating stories they have to tell, with a little help from Patek Philippe’s Head of Watch Development, Mr. Philip Barat.

All this week, we’ve been sharing our collaboration with style influencer Melanie Liu, aka The Tia Fox, to showcase Cartier’s Hypnose collection.

In terms surprises, at Christmas or at any other time, Omega releasing a new Speedmaster does not rank (sorry Omegamaniacs). In the last few years we’ve seen Speedies offered in every colour and design under the sun.
