It’s very easy to say, on day two of Baselworld, “oh yes, I saw that one coming”. It’s much harder to get it right two days before the big dance. Which is what we’re attempting to do in these two, probably ill-fated videos. Part one features Omega, Patek Philippe, TAG Heuer, and Longines. In part … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Our Basel 2017 predictions for Rolex, Hublot, Tudor, Patek Philippe and more… appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Rado Hyperchrome Ultra Light Limited Jan 24, 2017

MY WEEKEND WITH: the RADO Hyperchrome Ultra Light Limited Edition Automatic XL

When I opened the box in the hotel room, after arriving in Queensland for the Rado-sponsored Brisbane International tennis tournament, I was taken aback. This was not the watch I was expecting. Perhaps years of indoctrination and the current advertising campaign – with a ball bouncing around in a 3D model of a Match Point dial – … ContinuedThe post MY WEEKEND WITH: the RADO Hyperchrome Ultra Light Limited Edition Automatic XL appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

SIHH is as common an abbreviation to us as YMCA. It doesn’t have dance moves, it’s not the Nutbush City Limits, but it does involve the team covering some serious mileage early in the year, every year. The question is, what happens at SIHH? What is it actually like? We made a video, to complete … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: What’s the world’s second biggest watch fair really like?

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 2nd December, 2016 – the rumours edition

No, we’re not dedicating this Wind Down to Stevie Nicks and her choice of timepieces (though that would be amazing). No, this week we’re talking conspiracy theories and scuttlebutt. So break out the tin foil hat and the tinnies, it’s time for the most scurrilous Wind Down yet. But before we begin, we can confirm … ContinuedThe post FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 2nd December, 2016 – the rumours edition appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Bell & Ross BR 01 Burning Skull Aug 31, 2016

HANDS-ON: Heavy metal thunder – the Bell & Ross BR 01 Burning Skull

Bell & Ross has a thing for skulls. Since 2009 they’ve regularly enjoyed the danse macabre (or dance of death if your French is a little dusty). Of course, being Bell & Ross there’s an aviation link – the skull is a symbol commonly used by US Airborne Divisions. But as the years pass, the … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Heavy metal thunder – the Bell & Ross BR 01 Burning Skull appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Chopard LUC Strike One; Mark The Hour

The tones of Big Ben, the sinister sound of a clock sounding midnight in a scary movie and of course the recent tolling of bells worldwide to mark the new year; timepieces that sound to mark the full hour are memorable and all around us, yet are very rarely incorporated in a wristwatch. Repeaters can […]

The Philosophy Of Awesome

I am trying to learn how to Dougie. For those of you who are not as sentiently tapped into the zeitgeist of rap culture, this is a dance that involves you moving from side to side whilst rolling your shoulders, ironically enough, kind of like Axl Rose. This is important for me because I like […]

Kari Voutilainen No 28

I have been following the career of the illustrious Finnish watchmaker, Kari Voutilainen for a while. He makes interesting pieces, quite well finished. Take for example the decimal repeater…where instead of striking the quarters and minutes, the watch actually strikes the same way as we read the time…in tens of minutes, then minutes. Brilliant.
