Grand Seiko’s Snowflake (the more evocative name for the SBGA211 née SBGA011) is undoubtedly one of the most popular watches in their line-up, and understandably so. With its titanium case, seductive Spring Drive movement and one of the best-loved dials in the business, it’s remained unchanged (reference number and dial naming convention) since 2010 (see … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Golden Snowflake – Grand Seiko’s Spring Drive SBGA259 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

One of the first things people might notice about this watch is its size and sand-blasted case. At 43mm, it's pushing the limits for me personally but for something as casual and carefree as the Bayman, I think the size works together with the overall vibe.

Often the best watches are those that come with a story attached. Sometimes that story can be attached to momentous events or achievements the watch is associated with, or the accomplishments of those who wore it. It can also be a story of how it’s made and who it’s made by. Such is the case … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: The detail in the deep blue dial – Seiko’s Shippo Enamel SPB073 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Regular readers will be unsurprised to learn that we’re card-carrying fans of Moser’s Pioneer line here in the T+T office.

Anyone who knows me knows that I like things a little different from the norm. I’m a sucker for interesting dials and case shapes, pops of colour, and fresh takes on old designs.

Editor’s note: Most of the time there’s a formula to the watches someone likes. Something along the lines of 39 – 42mm case plus steel plus chronograph divided by price equals something I want.

The heart of Panerai’s line-up has to be the entry-level Luminor. A 44mm watch with the classic crown guard-equipped Luminor case and not much in the way of frills. White or black dial, white logo or blue, small seconds or not, and a range of strap options. That’s pretty much it.

It’s easy with any brand’s new release catalogue to get swept up with the drama and complexity of the halo pieces.

Case profile. There, I said it. It might not be as sexy as the movement or the dial, but in terms of real-world user-friendliness, it’s the kingmaker or deal-breaker.

The story in a second: A lot of value for not a lot of case.
