We can’t believe that Andrew said this about watches in the New York Times

EDITOR’S NOTE: Generally when people are interviewed by an august publication like the New York Times they tend to play things fairly safe. Luckily, when Robin Swithinbank rang Andrew for a quote for this story he was just returning from a long lunch. Hence the rather colourful quotes he came out with at the end … ContinuedThe post We can’t believe that Andrew said this about watches in the New York Times appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The Longines Dolce Vita x YVY collection shows how a strap can redefine a watch

Leather is a material taken for granted in the world of watch enthusiasts. Yes, we may appreciate a finely made strap, even having one custom made to order. But a strap has always been a secondary compliment to the centrepiece that is the watch. With the Longines Dolce Vita x YVY collection, however, the straps … ContinuedThe post The Longines Dolce Vita x YVY collection shows how a strap can redefine a watch appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

“Price on application”: the most annoying three words any watch buyer can ever hear

I recently had to write a round-up of 24 of the most intriguing watches of 2022.  The brief was for a glossy lifestyle magazine with an upmarket audience and some of the glossiest paper stock you’ll ever see.

What is the main purpose of a watch? Many would say it’s to simply tell us the time. But I think there are too many collectors out there that would beg to differ. In many ways, to them, the true purpose of a watch tends to be quite a personal thing. With that in mind, … ContinuedThe post MICRO MONDAYS: The Genesis collection from Adam Benedict can actively help you to feel less stressed appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Hey Everyone, It’s Ricardo and I’m jumping into the Friday Wind Down today.  This week, things died down a bit after the all-out blitz of releases we saw prior.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Let’s face it, a lot of marital traditions have thankfully changed. These days, if you choose to ask the bride’s father for permission to marry them, it’s more of a tokenistic gesture to get the old bastard on side rather than a potentially deal-breaking request. Same-sex couples can finally get married in most … ContinuedThe post The rules of engagement: Can you buy the person you plan to marry a watch instead of a ring? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
