HANDS-ON: An exercise in harmony and contrast – the Hublot Classic Fusion Racing Grey in King Gold
If you look at watches on a regular basis (we’re guessing you do), it’s easy to get caught up in the cycle of ever-escalating novelties that defines the industry – because let’s forget, for all the talk of savoir-faire and timelessness, this is an industry. Don’t get me wrong, I love seeing what creativity and innovation … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: An exercise in harmony and contrast – the Hublot Classic Fusion Racing Grey in King Gold appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

GONE IN 60 SECONDS: Smoke and mirrors – the Hublot Big Bang All Black Sapphire
[su_vimeo url=”https://vimeo.com/159551168″] Ten years ago Hublot pioneered the black-on-black-on-black look in watches.

They called it (appropriately enough) ‘All Black’ and this year they’ve released a number of special limited editions to celebrate. The standout is this … ContinuedThe post GONE IN 60 SECONDS: Smoke and mirrors – the Hublot Big Bang All Black Sapphire appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Musings on Zenith and the El Primero
El Primero, translated from Spanish, means ‘the first’. The reason for its name is an obvious one why Zenith chose to name their chronograph movement that. Zenith is the first manufacture to create an automatic integrated column wheel movement, and promptly christened it the El Primero.
