Ep. #26 – The Two Broke Watch Snobs official site release + Watch Adventures in Vegas
Yeaaay! It's here! The website is officially up! A huge thank you to the #watchfam and everyone that really encouraged us to get this done! In this week's episode we talk about what the site means for our (and the whole TBWS community's) future going forward. Plus we break down the huge ethical dilemma present in modern watch journalism and how it's doing you a disservice (and how we plan on addressing that moving forward).

Mike's done it - his #watchfast is over! The snobs take a look back on Mike's time wearing one (and only one) watch for an entire month. Mike also shares the details on the first watch he wore after the fast! :) And obviously now that the dust has settled, Kaz is thinking of doing a #watchfast as well, but with his fiancee's Casio MDV106... anyone in the #watchfam care to talk him off the ledge?

Ep. #23 – Baselworld 2017 Press Day & The Ones That Got Away
Mike and Kaz talk shop with some of the early Baselworld 2017 releases that've been coming out... surprisingly they're quite excited about a few of them! In particular Kaz is super into the new rederique Constant Flyback Chronograph Manufacture - so much so that he even chokes on his thin mints (you heard me). On the flip side, the newest Rolex Sea-Dweller has the snobs perplexed as hell.

INTRODUCING: The Longines Conquest VHP – very precise, very cool
We don’t talk much about quartz here at Time+Tide, and that’s usually for a good reason. Most quartz watches are pretty boring. There are, however, some exceptional quartz technologies out there, and the just-announced Longines Conquest VHP is a great example of this. VHP stands for Very High Precision and it is, believe it or … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Longines Conquest VHP – very precise, very cool appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Review: Blancpain Villeret Quantième Annuel GMT steel
Just as much as we love to talk about watches, we are also continuously on the lookout to spot industry moves and trends. We first pointed out the callous arms race for bronze case watches, and it seems like there is yet another trend on the rise in the emergence of steel case watches in premium lines. For those less familiar with the metals, for premium brands like Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, steel is usually associated with sports models and their classic models are seldom made in steel.
