HANDS-ON: JLC’s mean machine – the Master Compressor Chronograph Ceramic, now in black and pink gold

This Jaeger-LeCoultre is a great example of just how true the old saying about assumptions is. You see, it’s easy to pigeonhole JLC as producing only fine, delicate and dressy watches – classic Reversos, or smart vintage-inspired pieces, for example. And while it’s true that this style of watchmaking is their bread and butter, that … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: JLC’s mean machine – the Master Compressor Chronograph Ceramic, now in black and pink gold appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Rado’s HyperChrome Captain Cook has made waves this year, mostly due to the nearly pitch perfect 37mm reissue. And while there’s a lot to like about that watch, I suspect that the comparatively petite case size will be a deal-breaker for some people. But that’s OK because Rado has covered their bases by releasing a … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Vintage inspiration in a modern package – the Rado HyperChrome Captain Cook 45mm appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
