HANDS-ON: Raymond Weil’s latest Freelancer Chronograph looks the business Time+Tide

HANDS-ON: Raymond Weil’s latest Freelancer Chronograph looks the business

Raymond Weil’s latest take on their sporty Freelancer Chronograph is – to be blunt – really good-looking. Fundamentally, it’s the same as Freelancer chronos we’ve seen before: 42mm steel case, bulletproof RW500 movement, 12,6,9 subdial layout, day/date and screw-down crown and pushers. It’s a solid piece of kit. What’s new, though, is the colour way. Silver … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Raymond Weil’s latest Freelancer Chronograph looks the business appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: A classic in its purest form – the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 with white and black dials

One of the real hits from Rolex’s 2015 collection was the (now discontinued) Oyster Perpetual 39 (ref. 114300), a bare bones, simple steel timepiece that was still pure Rolex. Initially offered in a range of youthful, colourful dials, this year the Oyster Perpetual family expanded to include white and black dial variants, and they are, … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: A classic in its purest form – the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 with white and black dials appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Skeleton thin – the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Skeleton Titanium Blue

If you’ve been following us, or Bulgari for that matter, you’ll already know that this year is the year of the Octo. From solid gold automatic thinness, to ultra high-tech insides, the record-breaking collection has gone from strength to strength. And one of this year’s barely-there hits sees the Octo Finissimo Skeleton – which we … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Skeleton thin – the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Skeleton Titanium Blue appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The Longines Master Collection Annual Calendar – unassuming and awesome

There are few things I love more than a watch that surprises me. It’s something that doesn’t happen near enough for my liking, but it happened with this Longines. It was in the Longines booth at Baselworld, the first day of the fair. Trays and trays of watches had just been laid out in front … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Longines Master Collection Annual Calendar – unassuming and awesome appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

What do whales, chronographs and solar charging have in common? And no, I’m not talking about a hypothetical scheme involving Elon Musk, and the launching of an around the world race, with solar-powered propellers attached to specially trained whales. Cool as that may be – although probably not humane – all three things become one in … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Sun and sea combined – the Seiko Prospex ‘Save The Ocean’ SSC675P appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON:  Blue moon rising – Raymond Weil’s Maestro Moon Phase 

Call me a romantic, but the moon phase complication is amongst my favourites. Paradoxically, it’s also amongst the least functional - tracking the waxing and waning of our most significant satellite isn’t something that’s high on my list of life priorities. And when the topic does come up, I can, you know, look at the … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON:  Blue moon rising – Raymond Weil’s Maestro Moon Phase  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Every now and then, among the hundreds of new watches I get to see and handle each year, one will stop me in my tracks. That happened with Bulgari’s Octo Finissimo Automatic when I first encountered it in early 2017 – and it’s what happens again and again every time I see it, handle it, … ContinuedThe post INSIGHT: Flipping perceptions – why Bulgari’s Octo Finissimo is so significant and such great value appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The night owl friendly Bell & Ross BR 03-94 Horolum

It’s not unusual to see high-flyers Bell & Ross take inspiration from the world of aviation. In fact, it’s almost expected. However, the latest addition to their “Horo” label does it with a far more “grounded” perspective. Finding its muse in the practical aesthetic of an airport runway. Following on from last year’s three-handed Horolum, … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The night owl friendly Bell & Ross BR 03-94 Horolum appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Grand Seiko’s Snowflake (the more evocative name for the SBGA211 née SBGA011) is undoubtedly one of the most popular watches in their line-up, and understandably so. With its titanium case, seductive Spring Drive movement and one of the best-loved dials in the business, it’s remained unchanged (reference number and dial naming convention) since 2010 (see … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Golden Snowflake – Grand Seiko’s Spring Drive SBGA259 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

If we’re guilty of one thing when it comes to Longines watches here at Time+Tide, it’s that we maybe focus a little too hard on their heritage heat. It’s something that Andrew realised a while back when he explored their outstanding Master collection, and it’s something I realised at Basel when I saw the latest … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Longines HydroConquest receives a substantive, stylish upgrade appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The TAG Heuer Carrera Calibre 5 Day-Date

It’s easy to think of the Carrera as purely a collection of chronographs, as that complication is where its roots and, indeed, heart lies. But for a long time the TAG Heuer Carrera has been about more than just sports timers. It’s evolved into something more, a shorthand for sports pedigree and precision.

They say your 50s are the new 30s. I’m not sure who ‘they’ are, and why exactly they say that. But just Google “celebrities in their 50s” and you’ll see that maybe they are on to something (Halle Berry and Tom Cruise, amirite?).

So deeply has Chanel’s J12 become embedded in the canon of 21st-century design, it’s easy to forget that it was introduced only 18 years ago.

Every year, the Bell & Ross design team goes nuts with an incredible and (sadly) hypothetical vehicular creation. This year it was the Racing Bird, an awesomely streamlined take on a prop-powered racer, the sort of machine you’d see at the Reno Air Races.

Anyone who knows me knows that I like things a little different from the norm. I’m a sucker for interesting dials and case shapes, pops of colour, and fresh takes on old designs.

One of Girard-Perregaux’s leitmotifs is the golden bridge. Typically deployed in a trio, the golden bridges - with their broad, arrow-headed shoulders and pleasing, perfectly aligned symmetry - have been holding the brand’s wheels and balances in place since 1860. The golden bridges first showed up in a wristwatch in 1981, and these days it serves as … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Stay golden – the Girard-Perregaux Classic Bridges  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Gender-fluid.
