LIST: The 5 watches we’re arguing most about at Baselworld 2017

Baselworld is a pressure cooker. It’s an intense week full of back-to-back appointments, cramped accommodation and more watches than – if we’re being really honest – is healthy to try and process at once. So it’s only to be expected that Andrew and I have our own instincts about what are the hotties and notties. … ContinuedThe post LIST: The 5 watches we’re arguing most about at Baselworld 2017 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

In the months, weeks and days leading up to Baselworld the speculation around what novelties Rolex would release reached a near fever pitch.

Last year Grand Seiko released a new-look, sporty, modular, ceramic and titanium Spring Drive Chronograph.

If Rolex as a brand has mastered any single art – apart from watchmaking in practically all of its forms – it is to both meet and exceed expectations at every single Baselworld watch fair.
