There’s a reason chronographs are one of the most perennially popular watch complications – they add a lot to a watch. Functionality, interesting design elements, and a sense of derring-do, thanks to the chronograph’s close association with the exciting and glamorous worlds of motorsports, aviation and general athletic endeavour. Most importantly though, they add a … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Play of light – Raymond Weil’s Freelancer Chronograph appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

When I had the opportunity, in Geneva this past summer, to get my hands on the 20th century’s most famous wristwatch and talk about it with the man who will be holding the hammer when the watch is auctioned by Phillips in New York in a few days, my immediate thought was I-love-my-job-I’m-so-lucky.

First things first, what is sapphire crystal? Essentially, it’s the same stuff used to make a watch ‘glass’ and display casebacks, formed by crystallising aluminium oxide at very high temperatures to create an extremely hard material. Roughly speaking, it mimics what Earth has taken 400 million or so years to do, to form natural sapphire … ContinuedThe post LIST: Ultimate transparency - Hublot’s sapphire evolution, in 13 watches appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Special guests Terry from ToxicNATOs joins the Two Broke Watch Snobs to celebrate the TBWS One Year Anniversary! Unscripted watch talk, ballbusting, and horological shenanigans abounds as the group sits down to reminisce on the TBWS and how ToxicNATOs have evolved over the past year. Also be warned, unscripted means unscripted and today's episode gets pretty down, dirty, and non-PC. Brace your shit, #watchfam.

Bremont have relied on old-fashioned techniques to build their business. Firstly, they made a pretty great product. Anyone who’s held a Bremont in their hands will attest to that.

The Rolex Cellini Time is arguably Rolex’s most conservative model within its most conservative collection, but what we found in our time with the wider Cellini range is that it leaves its flourishes and flair as almost a secret pact between the watch and its wearer.
