Editor’s Note: You think you know someone. When Felix had the idea to tell a story about a fictional IWC Portugieser wearer through the visual medium of a comic book strip I was intrigued.

Loved because it forces you to distill your values, tastes and hoarding tendencies into a single piece, which … ContinuedThe post RECOMMENDED READING: The dreaded ‘If you could only wear one watch’ question appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

At the beginning of the year, IWC declared it the year of the Da Vinci.

Girard-Perregaux is one of Swiss watchmaking’s best-kept secrets. The La Chaux-de-Fonds based brand offers a complete - and compelling - package, fine pedigree, and a catalogue that ranges from the highest of high horology, through to some more accessible (yet still exceptional) pieces. But, for whatever reason, GP has long lacked the sort of name … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The sleeper hit - Girard-Perregaux’s 1966 WW.TC in steel appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Over the last few years, Panerai has gone to a lot of effort to evolve their offering.

It’s that time of the year when we start making Jon Snow/winter puns, but they’re getting a bit long in the tooth, so I’ll try and find a new, more topical climate-based pun.

This Jaeger-LeCoultre is a great example of just how true the old saying about assumptions is. You see, it’s easy to pigeonhole JLC as producing only fine, delicate and dressy watches – classic Reversos, or smart vintage-inspired pieces, for example.

When I first saw the new gold Daytonas at Basel, I didn’t quite know what to make of them. After the phenomenal success of last year’s new steel and Cerachrom Daytona, further extension of the line seemed inevitable, and precious metals the logical step.
