LIST: History repeating – 5 watch trends we can expect to see more of next year

The end of the year is fast approaching, and it’s about this time that the questions begin. “Hey Cam, what watches do you think we’ll see next year?” And although I’m not one to usually speculate – mainly because the watch industry is an infamously secretive place and I hate being proved wrong – by … ContinuedThe post LIST: History repeating – 5 watch trends we can expect to see more of next year appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Fancy a date? How about the Nomos Tangente neomatik 41 Update

Surely there is no more contentious complication in the world of watchmaking than a seemingly humble date display? It’s hard to believe that something so useful, and seemingly ubiquitous, can be so divisive. One way to end the date/no date feud is to include it, but with a twist. And a twist is certainly what … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Fancy a date? How about the Nomos Tangente neomatik 41 Update appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The three amigos – Zenith’s Defy Zero G dons Mexican affair

Around these horological parts, we really love a good four-letter acronym – SIHH, GPHG, COSC … I think you get the idea.

It’s hard to overstate the significance of the Polaris collection for Jaeger-LeCoultre.

NEWS: Battle of the brands – Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper in A Star Is Born

When ‘Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper – Shallow (A Star Is Born)‘ came up on my Discover Weekly Spotify playlist, it caught my attention for three reasons. Firstly, I had no idea that Bradley Cooper could also sing (of course he can). Secondly, it’s delightful.

Most of the watches we talk about here at Time+Tide are mechanical - if there’s a battery involved, the watch has to be pretty special to get our attention. Well, Seiko’s Astron meets (and exceeds) the ‘pretty special’ criteria. The original Astron watch was released in 2012 (well, if you want to get technical, the … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Smaller, thinner – the Seiko Astron GPS Solar 5X appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Owning a tourbillon is a dream for many watch-loving folks. The little, eternally whirling cages, designed to counteract the effects of gravity on a timepiece’s isochronism, aren’t particularly practical, though they hold within them a charm that in many ways sums up the appeal of mechanical watches.

As far as cool watch names go, this watch has one of the coolest: I mean, the head of the viper - it doesn’t get much more rock than that.

Editor’s note: When I began the hunt for my first “good” watch I came up with a list of certain criteria: a black dial, 40 – 44 mm case size, and good looks.

Nothing hints at the story of a watch more than its imperfections. A thick scratch across the crystal. Could that have been a motorbike accident? A near miss with a switchblade? A ding in the otherwise smooth shoulder of the lugs. Something mundane like an errant car door, or seatbelt buckle on a plane?

HANDS-ON: A Panerai for the suit and tie – the Luminor Due PAM00943

It would be easy to dismiss the Luminor Due - Panerai’s latest fully fledged line - as a collection oriented towards women. After all, it’s the collection that houses 38 and 42mm watches. But the fact that I am on record as being more than a little partial to the 42mm model aside, there are … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: A Panerai for the suit and tie – the Luminor Due PAM00943 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

In my eyes there’s no better backdrop than the French Riviera to launch a luxury dive watch.

The story of Omega’s Speedmaster “Tintin” is the tale of a watch that almost never was. The same goes for Nathan and his red-and-white chequered dial Speedy. When did you first see/hear about it?

HANDS-ON: The impossible blackness of Moser’s Endeavour Perpetual Moon Concept

Few colours have the symbolic weight of black. It’s meaningful in pretty much every culture. It’s associated - naturally enough - with darkness, mourning and solemnity, and with endings and beginnings. It’s also a colour of power and authority. All these associations and emotions are tied up in Moser’s latest conceptual piece, the Endeavour Perpetual … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The impossible blackness of Moser’s Endeavour Perpetual Moon Concept appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
