HANDS-ON: The Nomos Autobahn – a surprising tribute to the famously fast highway

Styled by renowned product designer Werner Aisslinger and his creative partner Tina Bunyaprasit, the Autobahn deviates from the German brand’s usual minimalistic palette, and introduces a whole new side to the Nomos catalogue. I’ll admit that when I first saw pictures of the Autobahn, I was left scratching my head, with the automotive-inspired design (the … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Nomos Autobahn – a surprising tribute to the famously fast highway appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Hamilton Chrono-Matic II (9379): Why The Hell Aren’t These More Popular? Two Broke Watch Snobs
Hamilton Chrono-Matic II 9379 Why May 4, 2018

Hamilton Chrono-Matic II (9379): Why The Hell Aren’t These More Popular?

Why this particular Hamilton Chrono-matic II isn’t more popular among enthusiasts is beyond me. Near as I can figure it, it's because it straddles that shadowed area of vintage watches that isn’t quite old enough to be “real vintage;” yet it hit the markets about a decade too soon for it to get the praise provided by the horology journalism of today.

HANDS-ON: The Zenith Defy Classic Skeleton - a Defy Lab-inspired entry level to the collection

It sort of feels like all we’ve been hearing about from Zenith through the last year leading up to Baselworld 2018 has been all things Defy. And fair enough, the Defy Lab is technically the biggest thing since the horological equivalent of sliced bread (the winding rotor perhaps?). As we got closer to the fair, … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Zenith Defy Classic Skeleton - a Defy Lab-inspired entry level to the collection appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

MY DAY WITH: The IWC Chronograph Spitfire at the Goodwood 76th Members’ Meeting

Now, IWC is a brand I’ve always admired from afar, but haven’t had substantial personal experience with until last month. The timing worked out well, and I happened to be in the UK at the time of the Goodwood 76th Members’ Meet - an event I’d been dying to attend.

Oh what a difference a strap makes.

One of the big surprises of Baselworld 2018 was Patek Philippe’s decision to add a grand complication model – specifically a perpetual calendar – to the Nautilus line. Or was it? Nautilus-with-complication is an old story (travel time, chronograph, annual calendar have all featured over the years) and the pre-Basel rumour mill was promoting the … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Patek Philippe Nautilus Ref. 5740 – the Nautilus we had to have appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

LIST: The celebrity factor – 10 examples of the impact of provenance on price, from Newman to Trump

The power of ‘celebrity’ is not a new concept. As far back as the ancient pharaohs, celebrities have been put on a pedestal (sometimes literally) and we’ve obsessed into the lives of the powerful, the wealthy and the beautiful.
