NOTE: We understand that you’ve found a new watch to add to your collection (congratulations!).

These 4 watches are a sure bet for this year’s Spring Racing Carnival

With Melbourne’s world famous Spring Racing Carnival now in full swing, there’s a fair bit of chatter about what sort of watch you should be wearing to accompany your (let’s face it) inevitably blue suit. Now, if you’re planning to rock a three-piece, firstly kudos to you, and secondly, definitely consider a pocket watch – … ContinuedThe post These 4 watches are a sure bet for this year’s Spring Racing Carnival appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The emerald beauty of the TAG Heuer Aquaracer with green dial

Emerging from the safety of black, blue and white dial sport watches, the radiant TAG Heuer Aquaracer in emerald green marks an adventurous step forward for the line-up.

RECOMMENDED READING: It might be the biggest, but the Apple Watch hasn’t crushed the Swiss 

Fun fact: Last year the Apple Watch shipped 22.5 million units. In the same period, the Swiss watch industry exported 23.7 million watches. Scary stuff if you’re a Swiss watch brand. Especially scary if your business is rooted in quartz watches - the market sector that’s being most aggressively eroded by the Apple onslaught.  This … ContinuedThe post RECOMMENDED READING: It might be the biggest, but the Apple Watch hasn’t crushed the Swiss  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The Tudor Pelagos LHD is excellent, but we want more

Editor’s note: The last time the Tudor Pelagos received a significant line extension was the LHD (left hand drive), which debuted in 2016. It’s a great watch - and arguably the ‘hottest’ of the Pelagos variants. But something we can all agree on is that it’s a line that’s well due for some more attention. … ContinuedThe post The Tudor Pelagos LHD is excellent, but we want more appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Increasingly, I’m finding myself drawn to watches that are understated, unassuming expressions of classical perfection. Which goes a long way to explaining why I was so into the Blancpain Villeret Extra Flat.  This is an exquisitely simple watch. Two hands, no date and a manually wound movement. A pure expression of classical watchmaking if ever … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Dressy but not delicate, the Blancpain Villeret Extra Flat 6605  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Earlier in the year, Omega celebrated 50 years of Man stepping off our terrestrial sphere with the release of a very faithful reissue of the 1969 commemorative gold Speedmaster (even though the alloy itself is very new).

“Living the dream” is how I’d best describe the two co-founders of microbrand watch company Nodus.
