INTRODUCING: The sporty TAG Heuer Link Calibre 17 Chronograph

Last year, I went hands-on with the sleek three-handed TAG Heuer Link, which saw itself revived into the men’s collection after letting the ladies Link have the first turn in 2016. While the makeover leaned more towards the elegant side of the Link’s sporting elegance roots, this year sees a sportier return to the collection, with … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The sporty TAG Heuer Link Calibre 17 Chronograph appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INSIGHT: Designing A. Lange & Söhne – part 3, the tone of type

Typography matters. The choice of font or type is a more complicated matter than merely the arrangement of letters used and the order in which they appear. It’s something designers and branding specialists know only too well: the sub-textual information communicated through the subtle language of serif, weight and kerning. Take the word ‘apple’, for … ContinuedThe post INSIGHT: Designing A. Lange & Söhne – part 3, the tone of type appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The Grand Seiko re-creation in yellow gold (ref. SBGW252)

When we think of Grand Seiko, it’s easy to associate them with classic but slightly left-of-centre designs: architectural case lines and instantly recognisable designs. Which is why this watch was such a surprise when we first saw it - it’s a deeply traditional dress watch design. A simple round case, in yellow gold no less … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Grand Seiko re-creation in yellow gold (ref. SBGW252) appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Solar flair – Seiko’s stylish Prospex SSC618P

Dive watches, thanks in part to their function-before-form ideology, can often be, well, formulaic. Seiko’s bold gold SSC618P manages to buck the trend in a few ways. Firstly, and most obviously, they’ve dressed up rugged steel with an unmissable rose gold coating, which must surely increase visibility underwater, as it’s certainly eye-catching on land. Then … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Solar flair – Seiko’s stylish Prospex SSC618P appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Which is why this glistening red sapphire confection is the logical extension of Hublot’s journey into sapphire. Not only does the vivid case amplify all … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Red alert – could you wear Hublot’s Big Bang Unico Red Sapphire? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
