WATCHSPOTTING: New French Montana song is iced out Patek Philippe lovefest
I imagine there’d be some decent perks that would go along with being a bud of The Weeknd. You’d probably get to meet Daft Punk. You probably wouldn’t get to meet Justin Bieber. And maybe he’d pick you up to go bowling in a sweet ride with a panther in his passenger seat. Pretty great perks.

LIST: A short timeline of Tudor’s movement technology
Tudor’s BB Chrono has been one of the most talked about movements of the year. It has a formidable set of specs, and the collaboration with Breitling is a bold (and smart) play. But it’s far from Tudor’s first step on the road from ETA to movement autonomy. Here’s what they’ve achieved in a few … ContinuedThe post LIST: A short timeline of Tudor’s movement technology appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 21st July, 2017
There’s an inherent irony in the Friday Wind Down that gets me every time. It’s often the last item on my weekly to do list – the one thing between me and a (very) well-earned knock off drink. For me, writing this isn’t much of a wind-down, if you know what I mean. So with that … ContinuedThe post FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 21st July, 2017 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

“When in Rome, do as the Romans do”, rather ironically, is not a saying that appears to be said very often around the watch design department at Bulgari.

The Spirit Of Big Bang is one of my favourite lines from Hublot.

Oris has developed a bit of a reputation for consistently releasing surprising vintage-inspired pieces. Having said that, their Big Crown 1917 is a little more surprising than most.

Earlier this year Bell & Ross released a pair of their trademark square watches that demonstrated quite a different take on their perennial aviation theme.

Girard-Perregaux is one of Swiss watchmaking’s best-kept secrets.
