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.

And unless your partner shares your passion, I’d … ContinuedThe post HOW TO: Let your significant other know you’re buying a watch – 8 strategies for success appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
