VIDEO: The old world charm of Tissot’s Heritage Petite Seconde 

Watches - the best watches at least - do more than tell the time. They transcend their function to evoke an atmosphere or a mood. Tissot’s latest heritage piece, the Petite Seconde, is a quite wonderful example of this. Sure, it’s a 42mm steel piece with a classic manually winding movement, and a pretty classic … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: The old world charm of Tissot’s Heritage Petite Seconde  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Seriously fun, the gold and steel Omega Seamaster 300M Diver

I’ve got to say, for a watch born in the middle of the ’90s, the Omega Seamaster 300M Diver is looking pretty glorious. Partially that’s down to the fresh facelift and major internal upgrade, but it goes deeper than that. The SMP - as it’s known - knows what it is, and revels in that … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Seriously fun, the gold and steel Omega Seamaster 300M Diver appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Editor’s note: The thing I love most about Tudor is their capacity to surprise. They get me every single time. I mean, every time a new watch is announced I know it’s probably going to be a Black Bay, but they still manage to defy expectations. And that’s exactly what they did last year, with … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: Tudor’s Black Bay Chrono – greater than the sum of its parts? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Which is lucky, because that’s exactly what the Seiko Prospex SNE520P is - an 800-piece series made just for the land down under.
