EDITOR’S PICK: The G-Shock remains an enduring favourite for combining a super-tough build with a very accessible price point.

VIDEO: The TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 in titanium is a lightweight delight
Titanium, generally speaking, is an under-utilised watchmaking material. It’s super light on your wrist, the darker tone of the metal looks great (especially when it’s sandblasted) and it’s still hard-wearing enough to handle anything you might throw at it during your day-to-day. After the success of TAG Heuer’s titanium collaboration with Bamford, we now have … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: The TAG Heuer Aquaracer Professional 300 in titanium is a lightweight delight appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
