For those who know me and my taste in watches a little bit, the fact that I own a TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 01 typically comes as a bit of a surprise, as there’s a perception that I like the simpler, smaller things in watch life.

The story in a second: A lot of value for not a lot of case. Though “perceived value” has become the new marketing-speak of the last couple of years in the watch industry, there still aren’t that many brands in the luxury watch industry that have taken any real significant strides. Sure, we’ve seen prices … ContinuedThe post IN-DEPTH: the Drive de Cartier Extra Flat in steel - driving the value proposition appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Editor’s note: Nigh on a year ago, Sandra delved into the mercurial, and occasionally murky, world of investing in vintage watches. But rather than start at the already stratospheric Rolex/Patek et al. price point, she decided to focus on something a little more achievable. And while prices on some of the below suggestions have likely already … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: We ask the experts how to build a potentially valuable watch collection appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve enjoyed H. Moser & Cie being around lately. They’ve put a smile on my dial, while creating some of the best examples of watch dials ever created. It’s like about five years of guffaws and loud sniggers, accrued through full-time work in the watch game, and previously hidden behind a hand, … ContinuedThe post EXCLUSIVE: We have the third H.

Full disclosure. Earlier this year I bought an H. Moser & Cie Pioneer in steel with a blue dial. So the brand’s recent anti-campaign called ‘The Pioneer Chronicles’, which is, in actuality, as much about calling B.S on Swiss watch marketing departments as it is about the watch itself, was well and truly after the … ContinuedThe post LIST: 9 things you could buy instead of an H.

I backed up Baselworld, with a solid stint in London, where - let me tell you - I did some serious watch spotting. So much spotting in fact, we had to split it out. Here we go!

The story in a second: A funky and practical Hublot packed with style and substance. Launched early last year in Geneva, the Big Bang Unico GMT - which technically is a dual time zone watch and not a true GMT, as there’s no hand running on a 24-hour scale - is the first arrival in … ContinuedThe post IN-DEPTH: The Hublot Big Bang Unico GMT Titanium appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

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? Steel sports watches, like … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: The other side of Breguet – the Type XXI 3817 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The first time that I was introduced to a Swatch Sistem51 was in a marketing email from Hodinkee announcing their collaboration with Swatch. The Swatch Sistem51 cost $150, which piqued my interest immediately. It was only a fraction of the cost of anything else that Hodinkee offered (besides a magazine).

It was clear from Zenith’s 2018 collection that the Defy line was a major priority. Because while there were Pilot, Chronomaster and Elite models on offer, the Defy was the star of the show, with everything from the awesomely complex El Primero Zero G through to the comparatively simple, but still quality, Defy Classics. It’s … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: 6 of the best new Zenith releases of 2018 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
