Hublot Big Bang Unico Blue Oct 15, 2017

HANDS-ON: Blue Monday – the Hublot Big Bang Unico Blue Sapphire 

Hublot’s sapphire journey began with their ultra high-end MP-05 LaFerrari, a horological engine in the truest sense of the word, with 50 days of power reserve thanks to 11 coupled barrels. It made perfect sense for Hublot to show this beast of a movement off to its fullest capacity with a full sapphire case. But … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Blue Monday – the Hublot Big Bang Unico Blue Sapphire  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: The watches of Bulgari’s record-breaking Octo Finissimo collection explained

It’s probably a cliché to say that the Italian jewellery house of Bulgari is going through a watchmaking renaissance, but it’s hard to argue with the sense of renewed vigour and energy that’s flowing through their unashamedly modern designs. And at the core of this rebirth is one design – The Octo. What began life … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: The watches of Bulgari’s record-breaking Octo Finissimo collection explained appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Seeing how the ‘other’ Rolex wearers live, with the Rolex Cellini Time

The Rolex Cellini Time is arguably Rolex’s most conservative model within its most conservative collection, but what we found in our time with the wider Cellini range is that it leaves its flourishes and flair as almost a secret pact between the watch and its wearer. We suspected this might be the case. We’d only ever … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Seeing how the ‘other’ Rolex wearers live, with the Rolex Cellini Time appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Eminem is currently going viral with a rant against Donald Trump delivered in a Detroit car park as part of the BET Hip Hop Awards. You’ve more than likely seen it, or at least snippets, but the full video is at the bottom of the post.

INTRODUCING: The Chopard L.U.C Heritage Grand Cru

The latest addition to the L.U.C Heritage collection pays tribute to not only the Chopard of the past but also to the present. To understand how, I’ll have to take you through a crash course in Chopard history (don’t worry, I’ll make it quick). Chopard were founded in 1860 by Louis-Ulysse Chopard, who specialised initially in … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Chopard L.U.C Heritage Grand Cru appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Just how thin is the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Automatic?

It’s not too hard to appreciate how thin 5.15mm is in abstract terms – it’s a shade thicker than two 20 cent pieces, FYI – and pictures of the Octo Finissimo Automatic get you a little further along the path to understanding. But short of actually having the watch in your hand or on your … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Just how thin is the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Automatic? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Cartier’s complex marvel – the Rotonde de Cartier Minute Repeater Mysterious Double Tourbillon

Here at Time+Tide we tend to focus on the simpler end of Cartier’s offerings, classic beauties like the Tank or the Drive Extra Flat. But there’s another side to the famous jewellery maison’s watch offerings that’s, well, exceptionally complex. The Rotonde de Cartier Minute Repeater Mysterious Double Tourbillon is one such watch.

One of the secrets of the Omega Aqua Terra’s success is its versatile charm.

Nomos may be one of the younger players in the watch scene, but they’ve already well and truly stamped their mark on the industry. A very minimalist-looking one, to be sure, but that does not mean that their purist Bauhaus/Deutscher Werkbund-inspired designs are boring. Far from it. There’s nothing ho-hum about a manufacturer who has been … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Nomos Ahoi neomatik, in eye-popping ‘siren red’ appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 29th September, 2017 – the ‘Don’t Argue’ Edition, inc. all the arguments we started this week

In Australian rules football (AFL) there is a particular type of defensive move called the ‘don’t argue’. It involves fending off an opponent with an outstretched arm, usually at full pace. This image pretty much sums up the move, but if you need a 9-second tutorial, check this out.

There are some sweeping generalisations in the watch world when it comes to the watches preferred by professionals in different fields – Breitling for airline pilots, Hublot for NBA players, Nomos for architects… but reality doesn’t quite conform to prevailing watch-lover logic. The fact is those that leap from high altitudes don’t choose a Zenith as … ContinuedThe post LIST: The evolution of the wrist – 3 professionals who rely on wrist machines that tell the time and more appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

I’m on the record as saying “I’m not a chronograph guy”, and, by and large, that’s true. However, there are exceptions, and this year’s Master Chronograph from Jaeger-LeCoultre is definitely one of them.

As Sandra so helpfully informed us yesterday, Cartier introduced the Tank Américaine in 1989.
