HANDS-ON: Seiko’s Save The Ocean - Tuna style - with the Prospex SNE518P

A little while ago Seiko lifted the lid on a tasty trio of dive watches with a marine conservation theme: a turtle, a samurai and a solar chronograph. All united by a gorgeous, graduated blue dial, inspired by both the blue of the sea and its mightiest inhabitant, the blue whale; these summer-suitable divers sure … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Seiko’s Save The Ocean - Tuna style - with the Prospex SNE518P appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EDITOR’S PICK: Can TAG Heuer’s affordable tourbillon match it with the big dogs?

Editor’s note: An affordable Swiss-made tourbillon. Words like that were once considered something of an oxymoron. That all changed, however, when in 2016, TAG Heuer’s Carrera Heuer-02T came along, causing something of a stir amongst the watchmaking elite. Well, with this year’s release of the chronometer grade TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph Tourbillon Tête de Vipère, those shock … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: Can TAG Heuer’s affordable tourbillon match it with the big dogs? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Today is World Oceans Day, a day that has, since 1992, celebrated our marine environments, and raised awareness for the need to preserve them. It’s a worthy cause, and one Blancpain, with their exceptional legacy in dive watches, has done a lot to support and promote.

There are two sides to Ulysse Nardin. One built on the high seas, and historically home to highly accurate marine chronometers. And another that pushes the boundaries of what’s possible in watchmaking, bursting with technical marvels and avant-garde designs. Falling heavily into the latter category is the Executive Skeleton Tourbillon. First introduced in 2016, its … ContinuedThe post LIST: Never get bored in the boardroom again with these 3 takes on the Ulysse Nardin Executive Skeleton Tourbillon 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.

I didn’t appreciate just how good the new Master Chronometer Omega Aqua Terras were until I spent some proper time with them.

HANDS-ON: One simple word that makes the Longines Record a big deal

Here at Time+Tide we make no bones about being greatly enamoured of Longines’s heritage offerings, so it’s understandable that we made a beeline for the Lindbergh and 1945 models. However, our attention was rapidly drawn to the comparatively pared-back Record, which intrigued us with one simple word on its dial – ‘chronometer’. Now, in case you’re not … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: One simple word that makes the Longines Record a big deal appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The first Bell & Ross I ever laid my hands on, back in 2008, was the Marine, an uncommon and somewhat unusual beast that took the brand’s trademark dial and transplanted it into a large, 1000m water resistant, tonneau-shaped case that looked like it could handle anything short of being run over by a main … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: A square peg in a round hole – the Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Diver appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

In terms surprises, at Christmas or at any other time, Omega releasing a new Speedmaster does not rank (sorry Omegamaniacs). In the last few years we’ve seen Speedies offered in every colour and design under the sun. That said, their latest, the in-no-way-economically named Speedmaster Moonphase Chronograph Master Chronometer is, in fact, pretty eye-opening, mouth-watering and wallet-tempting. It’s hot, … ContinuedThe post ADVENT CALENDAR 2016: December 16 – Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Chronograph Master Chronometer appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
