INTRODUCING: The Tudor Heritage Black Bay Steel – a rugged new look and a hot date

Tudor has just lifted the lid on the Black Bay Chronograph, and already they’re showing us another Baselworld 2017 novelty, and surprisingly/unsurprisingly it’s another take on the Black Bay. But rather than offer novel materials or finishes, like last year’s Bronze and Dark version, Tudor has revisited the heart of the collection, and offered another … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Tudor Heritage Black Bay Steel – a rugged new look and a hot date appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Vacheron Constantin 2017 collection – the most complicated of SIHH

Vacheron Constantin bucked the trend this year at SIHH. While many of their fellow exhibitors played it safe, bringing out crowd-pleasing steel models and revisiting their greatest hits, Vacheron Constantin walked another path, with a collection focused at the very highest end of horology.

HANDS-ON: the Girard-Perregaux Cat’s Eye Power Reserve – what a difference a grey makes

In the spectrum of colour, grey is quite the double agent. There it goes, trudging along amid notions of overcast skies, mind-numbing office cubicles, uncertainty. But just as we’re all stifling a yawn at its inherent dowdiness, what’s this we see? There goes grey playing its other hand in a realm populated by wolves and … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: the Girard-Perregaux Cat’s Eye Power Reserve – what a difference a grey makes appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The Ulysse Nardin Executive Tourbillon

With a penchant for the avant-garde, Ulysse Nardin is a tricky customer to pin down stylistically.

Last Sunday I boarded a plane in Melbourne and made the 8,000-odd kilometre trek to Tokyo. And in the last week I have travelled, by Shinkansen, bus and car a further 1500 or kilometres across Japan.

HANDS-ON: Gold medal effort – the Omega Olympic Official Timekeeper Co-Axial Chronograph

When discussing Omega’s limited editions, it’s generally pieces from the Speedmaster or Seamaster lines that spring to mind – and certainly when it comes to the Rio 2016 releases, it’s the Mark II Speedy and the brightly-bezelled Seamaster that have been chewing up most of the bandwidth. But if you ask me, Omega’s finest Rio LE is this … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Gold medal effort – the Omega Olympic Official Timekeeper Co-Axial Chronograph appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: How to wear a gold watch, with Cartier and Chris Edwards

Gold. It’s the original precious metal – with a lustre that has shone unabated for millennia. Gold is the universal symbol of success, power, status and, obviously, wealth. These markers, while making it such a desirable material, can also make it tricky to wear, especially if you’d rather not look like a Boxster-driving-try-hard.

Beyond Tourbillons: The Anti-Tourbillons!

Beyond Tourbillons: The Anti-Tourbillons!

The basic idea behind the tourbillon is to take the escapement and put it in a mechanically driven mount (or a group of nested mounts, in the case of the family of orbital tourbillons) in order to create a single average rate in all the vertical positions - and in many instances, to create a […]

Counting Stars (and Planets): The Graham Tourbillon Orrery

Whenever we talk about Graham watches, either some aviator theme watches or the Chronofighters with the trademark “fast-action start/ stop trigger” beside the crown would subconsciously come to mind. This time round, Graham did something a little unorthodox, and the result is simply out of this world! Before we start talking about this timepiece, letsRead More

Past Masters: The Astronomical Water Clock Of Su Song

Past Masters: The Astronomical Water Clock Of Su Song

It is said that those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it, but in the case of horology –especially nowadays –the past is constantly being mined enthusiastically for inspiration –sometimes with antecedents acknowledged, and credit given where it’s due, and sometimes not, with the hope that nobody will notice that […]

Parmigiani Tecnica Ombre Blanche: Delightfully Complicated

Complications are a way of life for Parmigiani, yet they will never bother you with it unless it is absolutely necessary to do so.

Another Word For Entry-Level? Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classique

It doesn’t feel right, calling a watch like the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Classique entry-level. It brings to mind images of small white cars with black bumpers, no rims and not even a radio or electric windows.
