Bottom Time (Vintage Edition): 1976 Tudor “Snowflake” Submariner
With all the recent vintage chatter on our site, this was inevitable. You may be the sort to draw the line at using a 40-year-old Tudor “Snowflake” Submariner to go diving, but at Revolution we believe that you should allow a watch to live a little.

HANDS-ON: Shades of grey – the Rolex Yacht-Master 40 with dark rhodium dial (ref. 116622)
This cool, calm and collected new Yacht-Master almost slipped past me. I was too busy falling in love (again) with the gold and chocolate Rolesor Yacht-Master, which was distracting me and dazzling my senses, but then out of the corner of my eye I spotted a flash of almost-iridescent blue, and my curiosity was piqued. I’m … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Shades of grey – the Rolex Yacht-Master 40 with dark rhodium dial (ref. 116622) appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EVENT: Aussies do it blacker, celebrating 10 years of Hublot All Black watches in Sydney
‘Black’ is a term that has come to denote the best in luxury. Anyone who has either accidentally, and I’m looking at myself here, or intentionally ordered an Uber Black knows that to be true. Hublot’s All Black event, to mark 10 years since the first All Black model was released, and showcasing all the ensuing … ContinuedThe post EVENT: Aussies do it blacker, celebrating 10 years of Hublot All Black watches in Sydney appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

GONE IN 60 SECONDS: Smoke and mirrors – the Hublot Big Bang All Black Sapphire
[su_vimeo url=”https://vimeo.com/159551168″] Ten years ago Hublot pioneered the black-on-black-on-black look in watches. Sure, it made it hard to read the time, but when your watch looked that cool who could care? They called it (appropriately enough) ‘All Black’ and this year they’ve released a number of special limited editions to celebrate. The standout is this … ContinuedThe post GONE IN 60 SECONDS: Smoke and mirrors – the Hublot Big Bang All Black Sapphire appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Today’s wind down is a little bittersweet. Sweet because it’s an absolutely gorgeous day here in Melbourne, bitter because we have more than a light case of FOMO.

LIST: 5 times Rolex helped to make the world a better place (for more than just your wrist)
Watch brands don’t change the world, right? Sure, it’s easy enough to create a limited edition watch that raises funds and awareness, but as for true and lasting change for the better…? Very rare. That might be a fair generalisation for many luxury watch brands, but this style of one-off, often half hearted corporate social responsibility … ContinuedThe post LIST: 5 times Rolex helped to make the world a better place (for more than just your wrist) appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
