The Wheel Deal
Today we may refer to off-road motorbike racing as “motocross”, but when you’re riding a Greeves Hawkstone, and wearing a 1960s Lemania chronograph, the sport will always be known as scrambling.

VIDEO: Omega’s Seamaster Aqua Terra 150m gets a meaningful makeover
It’s easy to get distracted by the brightest, shiniest watches of Baselworld; the watches that live up to the marketing parlance of ‘novelties’. But sometimes the real winners are the quiet achievers. I suspect Omega’s redesigned Seamaster Aqua Terra 150m will be one of these winners. The AT (as it’s often called) has long been … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Omega’s Seamaster Aqua Terra 150m gets a meaningful makeover appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The entrance to the venue for last Friday’s Australian launch of Montblanc’s UNICEF collection was unassuming: commuters and shoppers on Melbourne’s busy Chapel street walked right past the narrow door wedged between two shopfronts. Blink and you’d miss it – we nearly did. A discreet sign was the only clue.

EDITOR’S PICK: Looking back at Basel 2016’s bad boy - the Rolex Air-King
Editor’s Note: This year the watch that had tongues wagging at Baselworld was, without doubt, the Tudor Black Bay Chrono.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 12th May, 2017 - the e-commerce edition
One of the biggest trends in watches isn’t colour, shape or size, but rather something more prosaic and far more important – finding new ways to sell them.

HANDS-ON: The TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 01, now in a wrist-friendly 43mm
One of the watches I was most looking forward to seeing in the metal at Baselworld was the 43mm version of the distinctive Heuer 01. Now, I’m quite the fan of TAG Heuer’s skeletonised and modular take on their classic Carrera, but there’s no denying that at 45mm across, it takes certain amount of wrist … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The TAG Heuer Carrera Heuer 01, now in a wrist-friendly 43mm appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Last year’s surprise Tudor hit just got bigger - the Heritage Black Bay 41
One of the standouts for Tudor last year was the small and simple Black Bay 36. For the first time Tudor’s key collection shed its dive watch origins in favour of a sleeker, more minimal look. It also lost a sizeable amount of bulk, trimming down to a svelte 36mm, making it ideal for women … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Last year’s surprise Tudor hit just got bigger – the Heritage Black Bay 41 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
