EVENT: Ferrari celebrates 70th birthday with best possible party wingman, Hublot - week-long bash ensues
Usually, an event recap refers to one single event. This one, however, details a week-long bash during Melbourne’s Motorclassica that saw the town literally painted red when the Royal Exhibition Building was lit up in a bold Italian red, with Hublot and Ferrari logos stamping the iconic site. It also included the largest ever convoy … ContinuedThe post EVENT: Ferrari celebrates 70th birthday with best possible party wingman, Hublot – week-long bash ensues appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Grand Seiko’s Spring Drive technology explained … in 2 minutes
Fundamentally, there’s not a whole lot of variation in watch movements. Sure, the peripheral details might vary, but basically you’re either looking at a purely mechancial movement, with a mainspring and escapement setup that’s remained pretty much unchanged for the last few hundred years, or you’re looking at a battery-powered quartz watch that’s come to … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Grand Seiko’s Spring Drive technology explained … in 2 minutes appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The story in a second: Two-tone is back, baby! Steel and gold watches have been around for years. Hitting peak popularity around 30 years ago, they were the epitome of ’80s style, but, then again, so were pastel polos with double popped collars. However, while the mix of these two metals has been used by … ContinuedThe post IN-DEPTH: The Tudor Heritage Black Bay S&G; appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INSIGHT: 2 takes on the Rolex Sky-Dweller from people who bought it
Reviewing watches like the Sky-Dweller is all well and good, but we’re (usually) quite detached about it.

INSIGHT: Why the Hublot Haters have it wrong
So, in some parts of the watchosphere, it’s fashionable to be a Hublot Hater. While I’m not a HH (professional detachment, there are other, better uses for my energy), I will admit to being in the “not loving it” camp for quite some time. It was the bigness, the brashness, the it-watchness of it all. Given … ContinuedThe post INSIGHT: Why the Hublot Haters have it wrong appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: Return to form - the IWC Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar Chronograph
Until its relaunch earlier this year, the IWC Da Vinci collection was sometimes overlooked, and unfairly so, as it has housed several “firsts” for the company. First introduced in 1969, it was the first watch from the Schaffhausen manufacturer to feature a quartz movement – the famous Beta 21 – which was the product of a collaboration … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Return to form – the IWC Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar Chronograph appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The complete package - Ulysse Nardin’s Marine Tourbillon
When it was originally conceived, the tourbillon was a technical solution to a specific problem - the impact of gravity on the accuracy of a pocket watch’s movement. These days the whirling cage of finely finished metal represents something else. For brands, it’s a bravura statement of prowess. For watch lovers, it’s typically the crowning … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The complete package – Ulysse Nardin’s Marine Tourbillon appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
