OK, here are the watches that put the HH into SIHH, the sort of timepieces that challenge and define exactly what it’s possible to do with a watch on your wrist.

My last list - a trio of well-priced SIHH offerings - could be neatly broken down into a loose theme of air, sea and land.

INTRODUCING: The Hublot Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Orlinski Green Ceramic
When Hublot announced its partnership with French contemporary artist Richard Orlinski back in 2017, I guess you could say I was intrigued.

But after seeing his brightly coloured “Wild Kong” gorilla sculpture, with its multiple diamond-like facets, I knew that a Hublot and … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Hublot Classic Fusion Aerofusion Chronograph Orlinski Green Ceramic appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
