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.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 1st September, 2017 – the ‘Gaga-gate’ edition

Today is less of a wind down and more of a recovery. Last night we hosted a small gathering of some of our favourite watch lovers. Drinks were had, canapés were consumed, watches were ogled, fondled and ‘grammed, and new friends were found. Thanks to everyone who came! But that was last night.

INSIGHT: 2 takes on the Rolex Sky-Dweller from people who bought it

Reviewing watches like the Sky-Dweller is all well and good, but we’re (usually) quite detached about it. So we decided to find the opinions of people who had handed over their own hard-earned for the Sky-Dweller and asked them for their far less impartial take. Ashley’s perspective First we spoke to Ashley, a Sydney-based collector who’s … ContinuedThe post INSIGHT: 2 takes on the Rolex Sky-Dweller from people who bought it appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Earlier this week we showed you Franck Muller’s Skeleton Tourbillon, a sculptural wonder that let the movement shine.

HANDS-ON: When your hands are tied, consensually – Bulgari Serpenti Skin collection

Ancient Greek and Roman mythology furnish Bulgari with emblems from across the epochs, but their love affair with bold women in history also holds sway on their aesthetic. Like serpents, these dangerous beauties are sinful and sinuous - and nothing less than paradoxical. Fittingly, their latest Serpenti watch is a timepiece that can literally shed … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: When your hands are tied, consensually – Bulgari Serpenti Skin collection appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 4th August, 2017 – the fashion edition

Bear with me this week as I go a little off script. This week’s Wind Down is less about watches and more about all the stuff around them. Fashion. Technology. Business. Fine watchmaking manages to neatly intersect all these areas, informing and being informed by them. On a day-to-day level though, it’s easy to miss the linkages, … ContinuedThe post FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 4th August, 2017 – the fashion edition appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

LIST: Square pegs in a round world – 6 of the best square watches

Sometimes the endless parade of circular watches gets a little monotonous. We’ve been conditioned by decades of design to default to the round in watches. By and large that’s fine, but sometimes we want something just outside the norm – still versatile, still stylish, but a little less same same. And there’s where the squares … ContinuedThe post LIST: Square pegs in a round world – 6 of the best square watches appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

One of the brands we’re always excited to see at Baselworld is Seiko.

HANDS-ON: Panerai’s Midas touch – the Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Oro Rosso (PAM 684)

There’s something gloriously, incredibly and fabulously over the top about a solid gold dive watch. It’s the ultimate juxtaposition of functional object and precious ornament, all bundled up in a neat, wrist-optimised package. It’s this contrast that lies at the heart of the PAM 684’s appeal.

Bell & Ross’s latest take on its classic square draws inspiration not just from aviation, but also – far less predictably – from the realms of art and architecture. The BR 03-92 Horulum is a monochrome monolith of a watch, a 42mm bead-blasted case with matching sandwich dial and complementary pale green C3 Superluminova hands and markings.

Well, we’ve definitely come down from the post-SIHH high.

Review: Blancpain Villeret Quantième Annuel GMT steel

Just as much as we love to talk about watches, we are also continuously on the lookout to spot industry moves and trends. We first pointed out the callous arms race for bronze case watches, and it seems like there is yet another trend on the rise in the emergence of steel case watches in premium lines. For those less familiar with the metals, for premium brands like Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, steel is usually associated with sports models and their classic models are seldom made in steel.
