HANDS-ON: The Franck Muller Cintrée Curvex Jumping Hours Tourbillon
Earlier this week we showed you Franck Muller’s Skeleton Tourbillon, a sculptural wonder that let the movement shine. Today we’ve got a different take on the tourbillon: the Jumping Hours Tourbillon, which is just as stunning, even if it’s a little less revealing to the casual observer. The first thing you might notice about this … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Franck Muller Cintrée Curvex Jumping Hours Tourbillon appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Full speed ahead with Ulysse Nardin’s Marine Chronometer Torpilleur
For years, Ulysse Nardin has been something of an insider’s brand with a solid heritage and catalogue boasting some legitimately impressive horology (we’re looking at you, Freak). Their strongest line has, in my opinion, always been the historically inspired Marine collection, based on the brand’s historic marine chronometers which date back to the middle of … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Full speed ahead with Ulysse Nardin’s Marine Chronometer Torpilleur appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EDITOR’S PICK: 6 watches that tell the world you’ve made it
Editor’s Note: We recently ran a list of power players who wore budget timepieces, which was cool, but for watch lovers like us, somewhat unsatisfactory. So to counterbalance this we thought we’d revisit this list of six statement pieces Andrew put together for The Weekly Review. The brief? Six watches that “show you’re a success in life”. Enjoy. … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: 6 watches that tell the world you’ve made it appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The Cartier Drive de Cartier Flying Tourbillon
Last year, Cartier launched a brand-new collection: the automotive-inspired Drive de Cartier. However, unlike much of the brand’s other offerings which have cross-gender appeal, the Drive de Cartier is intended solely for men. It has proven to be a hit the world over, with a case that is neither round nor square. Instead, its elegant … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Cartier Drive de Cartier Flying Tourbillon appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

This month really flew by, which, going by the past six months, is the new standard. It started with a quick visit from @Nikokav who was down from Sydney for ‘work’ with his Omega Planet Ocean.

HANDS-ON: One simple word that makes the Longines Record a big deal
Here at Time+Tide we make no bones about being greatly enamoured of Longines’s heritage offerings, so it’s understandable that we made a beeline for the Lindbergh and 1945 models. However, our attention was rapidly drawn to the comparatively pared-back Record, which intrigued us with one simple word on its dial – ‘chronometer’. Now, in case you’re not … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: One simple word that makes the Longines Record a big deal appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: The most important Omega releases from Baselworld 2017
Most of the Basel buzz around Omega has focused on the very excellent (and likely very hard to get) Trilogy limited editions – and rightly so.

EDITOR’S PICK: Going back to Cali with the Panerai PAM 629 video review
Much like the state they’re named for, California (or Cali) dials have something inherently cool and playful about them. With their nonchalant mixing of formal Roman and casual Arabic numerals, you just know these watches don’t play by the rules. Which brings us to the Panerai PAM 629, first seen at Watches & Wonders in 2015. … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: Going back to Cali with the Panerai PAM 629 video review appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EDITOR’S PICK: The most popular Bell & Ross vintage model yet, the glittering BR 126 Aeronavale
Editor’s Note: Bell & Ross released a toned down vintage model this year, the first in their ‘3rd Generation’ vintage armada, with a flatter case and a smaller diameter. It’s a strong piece, with notable improvements to quality like screw-down chronograph pushers, but it’s in a monochromatic rather than colourful mood.
