HANDS-ON: The impossible blackness of Moser’s Endeavour Perpetual Moon Concept

Few colours have the symbolic weight of black. It’s meaningful in pretty much every culture. It’s associated - naturally enough - with darkness, mourning and solemnity, and with endings and beginnings. It’s also a colour of power and authority. All these associations and emotions are tied up in Moser’s latest conceptual piece, the Endeavour Perpetual … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The impossible blackness of Moser’s Endeavour Perpetual Moon Concept appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The Omega Speedy Tuesday and the Reseller’s Conundrum

Omega was highly successful in what is essentially the luxury watch industry's first foray into timed sales on a new direct to customer channel. For those who may have missed out on the not so new news, the Speedy Tuesday limited edition alludes to the first time the Omega Speedmaster was given its own trending hashtag #SpeedyTuesday which first came about in 2012, and explains the limited edition of 2012 pieces.

VIDEO: The Tudor Heritage Black Bay GMT is a contender for the hottest watch of 2018

Since their dramatic reboot in 2012, Tudor has continually upped the game. From the original Black Bay, to the development of in-house movements, new case materials, and complications like the chronograph, every year brings a new surprise. Based on this track record, I’m always excited to see what Tudor will do next with the Black … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: The Tudor Heritage Black Bay GMT is a contender for the hottest watch of 2018 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Pop a cork and celebrate – the Tudor Black Bay S&G; now comes with a champagne dial

Last year’s release of the Black Bay S&G; was something of a slow burn. In the heat of the initial announcements, all eyes were on the impressive Black Bay Chrono. As time passed, people seemed to realise what a looker the steel and gold was - no doubt helped by the fact that it was prominently … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Pop a cork and celebrate – the Tudor Black Bay S&G; now comes with a champagne dial appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Like Goldilocks, this Hublot Spirit of Big Bang King Gold Blue is just right

Since its introduction in 2014, Hublot’s Spirit of Big Bang collection has quietly been gaining momentum. The tonneau-shaped case sacrifices none of the immediate impact that Hublot is famous for, but shapes it into a more wrist-hugging form. And while the line is - as you’d expect from Hublot - full of options, this smaller, … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Like Goldilocks, this Hublot Spirit of Big Bang King Gold Blue is just right appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

LIST: 6 oddball watches of an oddball comedian

Like for so many other people, Robin Williams was, and still is, a hero of mine. Growing up in the ’80s and ’90s, his movies and brand of wacky comedy taught me that life doesn’t always have to be so serious, that growing old was inevitable but growing up was optional. I can’t even tell … ContinuedThe post LIST: 6 oddball watches of an oddball comedian appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

If anyone was ever to charge me with a unreasonable love of extravagant, gem-set statement watches, the evidence would be easy to find, and damning (Your Honour, I would point to evidence here, here and here, the prosecutor might say). And if I were to continue using the courtroom metaphor, and was allowed to call … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Not for the faint-hearted – Hublot’s Spirit of Big Bang Sapphire Rainbow appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: A classic in its purest form – the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 with white and black dials

One of the real hits from Rolex’s 2015 collection was the (now discontinued) Oyster Perpetual 39 (ref. 114300), a bare bones, simple steel timepiece that was still pure Rolex. Initially offered in a range of youthful, colourful dials, this year the Oyster Perpetual family expanded to include white and black dial variants, and they are, … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: A classic in its purest form – the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 with white and black dials appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The Longines Master Collection Annual Calendar – unassuming and awesome

There are few things I love more than a watch that surprises me. It’s something that doesn’t happen near enough for my liking, but it happened with this Longines. It was in the Longines booth at Baselworld, the first day of the fair.

LIST: The budget list – 5 great new Swiss mechanical watches from brands you’ve heard of that cost less than $1500

A Swiss watch is a near-universally recognised symbol for quality, precision and tradition. And while that’s all well and good, there’s another thing that fine Swiss watches tend to be synonymous with - and that’s high sticker prices. And broadly speaking that perception is true - I constantly find myself uttering phrases like “this $60,000 … ContinuedThe post LIST: The budget list – 5 great new Swiss mechanical watches from brands you’ve heard of that cost less than $1500 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

NEWS: David Beckham’s new #BornToDare campaign epitomises the rugged masculinity of the Black Bay Bronze 

In May last year, Tudor unveiled a brand new tagline – #BornToDare – and with it, a suitably daring ambassador, David Beckham. The choice of Beckham was a bold one on several fronts: he’s a bona fide A-lister with massive international star power, propelling Tudor to the next level of mainstream visibility.

What do whales, chronographs and solar charging have in common? And no, I’m not talking about a hypothetical scheme involving Elon Musk, and the launching of an around the world race, with solar-powered propellers attached to specially trained whales. Cool as that may be – although probably not humane – all three things become one in … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Sun and sea combined – the Seiko Prospex ‘Save The Ocean’ SSC675P appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

In case you’ve missed the news, a new rom-com, Crazy Rich Asians, is coming to a screen near you.

The model that’s emerging as the hero of Bulgari’s watch collection - which is undergoing a serious renaissance at the moment - is the Octo Finissimo Automatic, a simpler, more day-to-day offering than the tourbillons, minute repeaters and the like that also form part of the family.
