HANDS-ON: What a difference a dial makes – the Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Perpetual Calendar

The cool and elegant Vacheron Constantin booth at SIHH was packed with highly complicated pieces (including the most complicated piece), and their top-line SIHH releases were a mass of brain-bending masterpieces, heavy on the sonneries, sidereal time and celestial maps. But amid all this mechanical splendour I found myself coming back to a simpler – … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: What a difference a dial makes – the Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Perpetual Calendar appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Confident refinement – the Ulysse Nardin Classico Manufacture Grand Feu

Ulysse Nardin pulled out all the stops for its first SIHH showing. In a fair charactered by conservative product releases, the Le Locle-based manufacturer presented a strong line-up of novelties, with a strong nautical theme, highlights including the new regatta timer, the technically impressive Marine Grand Deck, as well as this watch – the Classico Manufacture Grand … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Confident refinement – the Ulysse Nardin Classico Manufacture Grand Feu appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The new Panthère de Cartier – an ’80s icon back on the prowl

No one was quite sure what to expect at SIHH this year, so it was a thrill to see Cartier getting on the front foot with a female-focused re-release of the Panthère de Cartier. First launched in the 1980s, it sat well with the cultural cues of the time: big hair, shoulder pads, Dynasty. Charlie Sheen’s character, … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The new Panthère de Cartier – an ’80s icon back on the prowl appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Date offers the complete package

For many consumers and manufacturers, now is not the time for extravagant, outlandish watches. That’s not to say SIHH doesn’t have its fair share of outlandish, extravagant and (it must be said) amazing timepieces – but they’re very much a niche proposition. The vast majority of real-world buyers are after something simpler and in a soft … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Date offers the complete package appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The sporty new Baume & Mercier Clifton Club

This year’s SIHH sees Baume & Mercier release a new, sportier take on the Clifton – the Clifton Club. This collection of robust, three-handed timepieces is made for ‘gentle sportsmen’ – which, if I’m interpreting the PR video full of people on boards (surf and skate) and bikes (mountain and motorised) means it’s a sporty go-anywhere-do-anything … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The sporty new Baume & Mercier Clifton Club appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Though Piaget has made a lot of noise in the past 12 months with the sporty steel Polo S, the undeniable heart of the collection is the ultra-slim and ultra-sexy Altiplano. Born in 1957 and named for the flat South American high plains, the Altiplano and the legendary caliber 9P that powered it, have become … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: 6 decades on and still going strong – the Piaget Altiplano 60th anniversary appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

This video series was born out of frustration.

Tune in to any period drama and at some point there’ll be a plot line where two eligible young bachelors vie for the attentions of a damsel; a situation which typically ends in fisticuffs, name-calling (“You blasted cad!”) and the woman not having a say in anything.

INTRODUCING: Montblanc pioneers refined patina with the 1858 Chronograph Tachymeter in bronze

At this stage in the game, bronze watches aren’t anything new; Panerai, Oris and Tudor have all played a role in pushing the patina-friendly metal mainstream. But until now, bronze has been the playground of tool-like dive watches, serious timepieces licked by salt and spray until a fine verdigris of adventure forms on the rugged … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Montblanc pioneers refined patina with the 1858 Chronograph Tachymeter in bronze appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Summer stunner – the TAG Heuer Aquaracer 300m Calibre 5 Titanium

It might be stating the obvious, but this Aquaracer doesn’t have a tourbillon or a modular case construction. Nor is it a smart watch, or a reissue of a ’70s watchmaking icon. This is a plain old ‘new watch’ from a well known family. No bells, no whistles, just an absolute winner of a watch.

HANDS-ON: Franck Muller gets disruptive with the Vanguard Chronograph Camouflage

If you want to get technical (and at T+T we always do), camouflage is a combination of patterns, colours and materials that serves to conceal an object and help it blend in with its surroundings. In nature, think leopards and tigers. In more man-made contexts, camouflage is the domain of the military, where it’s often … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Franck Muller gets disruptive with the Vanguard Chronograph Camouflage appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Baume & Mercier are known for their value-focused take on traditional watchmaking. Their Clifton and Capeland collections epitomise this approach, offering versatile style at a price that won’t break the bank.
