HANDS-ON: Bulgari adds a touch of danger to the Octo Ultranero
Bulgari has unveiled some of its latest collection in advance of Baselworld, and we were lucky enough to get our hands on a few key pieces. One model that particularly took our fancy was this crimson and black take on the Octo Ultranero. The changes on this latest version of the Octo are purely cosmetic – it’s still … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Bulgari adds a touch of danger to the Octo Ultranero appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

MY WATCH STORY: David’s Patek Philippe Aquanaut
Editor’s note: One morning at work, around 9:20am, I looked up from my desk and saw a face peering through the front door.

OPINION: Why the Oris Artelier Skeleton Diamonds is a modern feminist watch
For much of the industry, the motto when it comes to designing watches for women appears to be: “Make it sparkle so brightly they won’t notice there’s a battery inside.” Happily, that’s not the case here, because the Oris Artelier Skeleton Diamonds is one of an all-too-rare breed: a ladies’ watch that’s impressive both as a … ContinuedThe post OPINION: Why the Oris Artelier Skeleton Diamonds is a modern feminist watch appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 3rd February, 2017
Well, we’ve definitely come down from the post-SIHH high. The lights seem somehow less dazzling (probably because it’s not being refracted through thousands of diamonds) and the mood is less giddy (probably because we’re no longer consuming a magnum of Champagne a day). Whatever the reasons, reality is well and truly back, and we’re not … ContinuedThe post FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 3rd February, 2017 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

While most eyes were on Roger Federer and the Rolex GMT Master-II BLNR he strapped on to hoist his 18th grand slam trophy at the Australian Open in Melbourne on Sunday night, there were other watches nearby worth noticing.

HANDS-ON: Girard-Perregaux’s Laureato in steel - is it a steal?
Let’s get this out of the way early on. Does the Girard-Perregaux Laureato share some visual similarities with other well-known luxury steel sports watches?
