HANDS-ON: The Spinnaker Bradner – a stylish retro diver for under $300

Anyone who knows me knows that I like things a little different from the norm. I’m a sucker for interesting dials and case shapes, pops of colour, and fresh takes on old designs. That’s not to say that I don’t also appreciate the classics, but I do like some uniqueness. So when I was given … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Spinnaker Bradner – a stylish retro diver for under $300 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Stay golden – the Girard-Perregaux Classic Bridges 

One of Girard-Perregaux’s leitmotifs is the golden bridge. Typically deployed in a trio, the golden bridges - with their broad, arrow-headed shoulders and pleasing, perfectly aligned symmetry - have been holding the brand’s wheels and balances in place since 1860. The golden bridges first showed up in a wristwatch in 1981, and these days it serves as … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Stay golden – the Girard-Perregaux Classic Bridges  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Gender-fluid. If you were born yesterday or became acquainted with pop culture only last year, you could be forgiven for thinking – based on the excitable talk among style-and-social commentators – that it’s a newly minted concept. Not so. The 1970s: boys wearing their hair longer than girls; 1966: Yves Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking … and … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Chanel’s exceptional Boy.Friend Skeleton appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

It’s easy with any brand’s new release catalogue to get swept up with the drama and complexity of the halo pieces.

Look back at Baselworld predictions over the last few years, and you’re likely to see a GMT from Tudor topping the list.

Let’s be real here. Ever since we saw the new Laureato last year, we knew the chronograph version was inevitable.

It sort of feels like all we’ve been hearing about from Zenith through the last year leading up to Baselworld 2018 has been all things Defy.

When Raymond Weil designed the Calibre RW1212, their first ever in-house design (produced by Sellita), I suspect part of the mandate was to show it off, hence the open escapement prominently on display - literally showing off a movement they’re rightfully proud of.
