Bremont MBIII 10th Anniversary limited Feb 26, 2019

INTRODUCING: The Bremont MBIII 10th Anniversary limited edition

Bremont is a brand built, to no small degree, around meaningful collaborations - particularly those in the aerospace sector. And of these relationships there’s one that holds pride of place and speaks to the heart of the British brand – Martin-Baker. Martin-Baker has, since 1946, been one of the most important suppliers of ejection seats … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Bremont MBIII 10th Anniversary limited edition appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The sustainable Submersible, Panerai’s Submersible Mike Horn Edition, PAM00984

There were a lot of very interesting watches released at SIHH. Oftentimes, this interest was centred around complication - and rightly so, it’s really the watch industry’s traditional bailiwick. But for me, one of the most interesting collections overall was Panerai. Panerai, while certainly accomplished at the higher end of the spectrum, tends not to … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The sustainable Submersible, Panerai’s Submersible Mike Horn Edition, PAM00984 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

LIST: 3 well-dressed men straight up wrist flexing at the 2019 Oscars

There’s an argument to be made for a subtle sartorial flex (and it’s an argument that Barack Obama definitely won with his Rag & Bone “44” bomber jacket btw). Class, elegance, all that jazz. But there’s an equally strong statement to be made for putting your best foot forward, and expressing yourself. Something these three … ContinuedThe post LIST: 3 well-dressed men straight up wrist flexing at the 2019 Oscars appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Game, set, match…point. A closer look at Rado’s HyperChrome Match Point

Sports tie-in watches play a - if you’ll pardon the pun - dangerous game. On the one hand there’s a lot of gloss (and potential sales) to be earned from the association with an event that’s under the spotlight. The downside, though, is you might end up with a watch that looks more like a souvenir … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Game, set, match…point.

HANDS-ON: The Hublot Spirit of Big Bang Yellow Sapphire – the not so mellow yellow

Magic Gold, ceramic, sapphire. We all know that Hublot loves toying with case materials, and their latest comes as yet another clever spin on case materials - the first ever watch cased in yellow sapphire. Hublot wasn’t the first to get into the art of crafting sapphire watch cases, however they have been the first … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Hublot Spirit of Big Bang Yellow Sapphire – the not so mellow yellow appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The Porsche Design by IWC Ocean 2000 ref 3504 is the kind of model that makes the experience of being into watches great again. But more about the watch later.

MY 2 MONTHS WITH: The golden boy Casio G-Shock Full Metal GMW-B5000GD-9

I have a confession to make: In 2018, I, Cameron Wong, did not purchase a single watch for myself. Not on purpose, it just kind of happened. It’s not like I didn’t have any on my radar either, I just think that I was able to satisfy the itch all year long by having the … ContinuedThe post MY 2 MONTHS WITH: The golden boy Casio G-Shock Full Metal GMW-B5000GD-9 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Hold onto your hats because Glashütte Original has just dropped another dose of exceptional colour, in the form of the 2019 edition of the Sixties and Sixties Panorama Date. In case you don’t recall last year’s version, it was a pretty exceptional green (here’s a closer look) and a very popular choice.

Editor’s note: Basel is just around the corner, which means that I’m spending more time than is strictly healthy speculating on what configurations of complications we might be seeing from our favourite brands … like Grand Seiko.

Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Feb 19, 2019

INTRODUCING: The Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Special Silver

Zenith is rather proud of the fact - and understandably so - that they hold the trademark for the “Pilot” name on watches, so it makes sense for them to proudly emblazon the name on the dials of their aviation-inspired pieces. This latest limited edition is extra special (also mentioned on the dial), because of its … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Zenith Pilot Type 20 Extra Special Silver appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The Breguet Marine Chronograph ref. 5527

If I’m being honest, this is one of the less “Breguet” watches Breguet has released in recent years. It’s an unconventional mix of traditional features, in a much more contemporary package. All the key design features are there: the fluted case, the hands and the elaborately guillochéd dial, but this watch is a world away … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Breguet Marine Chronograph ref. 5527 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

I don’t want to sound too hyperbolic, but Baselworld 2019 will be make or break.

INTRODUCING: Jaquet Droz’s Grande Seconde Skelet-One Ceramic

In the last few years, skeletonised watches have undergone a renaissance. Once overly designed and overwrought, at some point this distinctive genre segued from niche to very nice indeed. And Jaquet Droz’s Skelet-One is a great example of this new breed. Clean and simple, rather than ornate, is the name of the game for this … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Jaquet Droz’s Grande Seconde Skelet-One Ceramic appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The Vacheron Constantin Overseas Perpetual Calendar Ultra-Thin – now on a fully gold bracelet

When it comes to Vacheron Constantin’s SIHH releases, there’s no doubt the pieces that were the talk of the town (and rightfully so) were the epic Twin Beat and the slightly less epic but epically attractive Overseas Tourbillon. And I get it, they’re both great watches. The Twin Beat is a triumph of clever engineering … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Vacheron Constantin Overseas Perpetual Calendar Ultra-Thin – now on a fully gold bracelet appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Glashütte Original go all out with their contemporary Senator Excellence Perpetual Calendar

As far as complications go, perpetual calendars are typically classically styled, verging on the stuffy, depending on how well they’re done. Not that there’s anything fundamentally wrong with this – after all, fine watchmaking thrives on tradition. But I can understand the desire to shake things up a little, and throw down some contemporary styles, … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Glashütte Original go all out with their contemporary Senator Excellence Perpetual Calendar appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

If you had any doubts about Panerai’s position as kings of the deep, their SIHH 2019 release catalogue would have dispelled them. Panerai’s hero watch is, of course, the Submersible. It’s one of the brand’s most interesting designs, as it honours their historically important case shape (cushiony, with a fairly famous crown guard), while adding … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: 3 standout Submersibles from Panerai’s SIHH 2019 collection appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Grand Seiko has, in the lead-up to Baselworld, just announced a brand new movement for the Elegance Collection, four new manually wound, slender watches (three of them limited editions) that look very promising indeed. First things first, this collection is powered by a new manually wound caliber, the 9S63, the brand’s first in eight years. … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Grand Seiko has just announced four new slim manual-wind models in the Elegance Collection and, yes, the dials are off the charts appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Crashing to earth – Piaget’s Altiplano with meteorite dial

Adding variety in the world of ultra-thin watchmaking is tricky. Because in this space, additional complications typically equals extra thickness - and that defeats the aim of the exercise. So instead of working on altering the mechanics, you change the aesthetics, which is just what Piaget has done here with these new additions to the … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Crashing to earth – Piaget’s Altiplano with meteorite dial appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The three things that convinced me to take Bulgari seriously as a watchmaker

It’s not an easy, or necessarily wise, thing to admit, but the first ‘proper’ cologne I ever purchased (with money from my job working at the deli in Coles) was Bulgari. And the first expensive sunglasses I owned? Also Bulgari. It was natural, then, that when I entered the world of haute horology a decade … ContinuedThe post The three things that convinced me to take Bulgari seriously as a watchmaker appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

One of the most interesting - and important - new watch releases I saw while in Geneva recently wasn’t shown at SIHH at all. Rather, it was presented by TAG Heuer.

Few names loom larger in the collective consciousness of horological history than Gérald Genta.
