WHO TO FOLLOW: @Tom.inslay – watch engraver and artist

He’s also got a few interesting talents … Hey Tom, we’ve been wondering - what do you actually do?

EVENT: Australian legends at the legendary launch of the Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris 

Earlier this week, Jaeger-LeCoultre held the Australian launch of their brand new Polaris collection at Carriageworks in Sydney, and it was - to borrow Neil Patrick Harris’ line - legendary. In watchland, the Polaris is a legend in its own right (a watch I incidentally had the pleasure of seeing in its various stages of … ContinuedThe post EVENT: Australian legends at the legendary launch of the Jaeger-LeCoultre Polaris  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The Tudor Black Bay GMT – Pepsi is the new Black (Bay)

Look back at Baselworld predictions over the last few years, and you’re likely to see a GMT from Tudor topping the list. Sure, some of us may have expected to see that little extra hour-telling-hand added to the Pelagos. But with the ever growing – and hugely popular – Black Bay collection proving to be … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Tudor Black Bay GMT – Pepsi is the new Black (Bay) appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The watch industry is a well-oiled novelty-making machine. Every year it produces a sea of new releases that quickly turns the tide of attention from the old towards the latest and greatest in the world of watchmaking. Occasionally, though, it’s nice to stop and look back on the watches that we might have missed.

INTRODUCING: Strong looks and value – the Mido Multifort GMT

Mido is a name that might not be too familiar to our Australian readers, as the Swatch Group brand has had the most minimal of minimal presences on our shores until recently. But as it so happens, they’re celebrating their 100th anniversary this year, and they’re doing it with a strong collection of watches, like … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Strong looks and value – the Mido Multifort GMT appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

OPINION: Is this the most important (and overlooked) element in watch design?

Case profile. There, I said it. It might not be as sexy as the movement or the dial, but in terms of real-world user-friendliness, it’s the kingmaker or deal-breaker. The problem is, watchmakers and fans are conditioned to a very top-down visual approach of watches. Look at any brand’s site, or most of the watches … ContinuedThe post OPINION: Is this the most important (and overlooked) element in watch design? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

It’s no secret that the vintage watch market is booming. Take a peek at recent results from the big watch auctions by the likes of Phillips and Christie’s and you’ll see that prices are on the rise.

There’s no point sugar-coating it. Gem-set watches aren’t for everyone. For one, all that ice racks up the price tag (so much so that all the watches below are POA), and for another, it takes a certain type of person to appreciate the - occasionally over-the-top - artistry it takes to make a watch shine … ContinuedThe post LIST: Somewhere over the rainbow – 8 of the year’s best gem-set watches  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
