HANDS-ON: The Tudor Black Bay GMT – Pepsi is the new Black (Bay)

Look back at Baselworld predictions over the last few years, and you’re likely to see a GMT from Tudor topping the list. Sure, some of us may have expected to see that little extra hour-telling-hand added to the Pelagos. But with the ever growing – and hugely popular – Black Bay collection proving to be … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Tudor Black Bay GMT – Pepsi is the new Black (Bay) appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: I ditched my mechanical watch for the Apple Watch Series 3 Edition, and this is what I discovered

Late last year, one of the more surprising (and contentious) inclusions in my “best watches of 2017” list was the Apple Watch Series 3. For me, the addition of cellular functionality made the already formidable smart watch that much more intimidating - and appealing. So, as you can imagine, I was keen to get my hands … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: I ditched my mechanical watch for the Apple Watch Series 3 Edition, and this is what I discovered appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: Strong looks and value – the Mido Multifort GMT

Mido is a name that might not be too familiar to our Australian readers, as the Swatch Group brand has had the most minimal of minimal presences on our shores until recently. But as it so happens, they’re celebrating their 100th anniversary this year, and they’re doing it with a strong collection of watches, like … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Strong looks and value – the Mido Multifort GMT appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

OPINION: Is this the most important (and overlooked) element in watch design?

OPINION: Is this the most important (and overlooked) element in watch design?

Case profile. There, I said it. It might not be as sexy as the movement or the dial, but in terms of real-world user-friendliness, it’s the kingmaker or deal-breaker. The problem is, watchmakers and fans are conditioned to a very top-down visual approach of watches. Look at any brand’s site, or most of the watches … ContinuedThe post OPINION: Is this the most important (and overlooked) element in watch design? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

One of the Raymond Weil’s great strengths has always been stylish, sharp, everyday dress pieces, something that’s really epitomised in the Maestro line.

HANDS-ON: The Girard-Perregaux Laureato Chronograph

Let’s be real here. Ever since we saw the new Laureato last year, we knew the chronograph version was inevitable. After all, what’s a luxury sports watch without the option of the default sports complication? There’s no doubt that this good-looking sporty option is the brand’s commercial focus, so it makes sense that a veritable … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Girard-Perregaux Laureato Chronograph appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Of all of Montblanc’s fine timepieces, I’ve had a soft spot for the distinctive Rieussec line, an uncommon take on the common chronograph that draws its inspiration from the daddy of them all, the original chronograph device invented by the eponymous Frenchman, Nicolas Rieussec.

The story in a second: A lot of value for not a lot of case.

Last weekend we saw Geneva play host to a handful of watch auctions, with the likes of Christie’s, Phillips, and Sotheby’s descending on the city and dropping some hammers.

Not to get too metaphysical with you on a Saturday morning, but does three watches count as a list?

Editor’s Note: It’s easy (too easy, really) to pigeonhole a brand, often unfairly. For me, my first association with Breguet was all fluted cases, engine-turned dials and precious metal cases. To be fair, the brand does all those things exceptionally well, but you know what else they do pretty darned well?
