FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 4th August, 2017 – the fashion edition

Bear with me this week as I go a little off script. This week’s Wind Down is less about watches and more about all the stuff around them. Fashion. Technology. Business. Fine watchmaking manages to neatly intersect all these areas, informing and being informed by them. On a day-to-day level though, it’s easy to miss the linkages, … ContinuedThe post FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 4th August, 2017 – the fashion edition appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EDITOR’S PICK: 6 watches that tell the world you’ve made it

Editor’s Note: We recently ran a list of power players who wore budget timepieces, which was cool, but for watch lovers like us, somewhat unsatisfactory. So to counterbalance this we thought we’d revisit this list of six statement pieces Andrew put together for The Weekly Review. The brief? Six watches that “show you’re a success in life”.

Girard-Perregaux is one of Swiss watchmaking’s best-kept secrets. The La Chaux-de-Fonds based brand offers a complete - and compelling - package, fine pedigree, and a catalogue that ranges from the highest of high horology, through to some more accessible (yet still exceptional) pieces. But, for whatever reason, GP has long lacked the sort of name … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The sleeper hit - Girard-Perregaux’s 1966 WW.TC in steel appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
