VIDEO: Halo effect - the Hublot Big Bang Meca-10 in King Gold

I’ve been a big fan of Hublot’s Meccano-inspired Meca-10 ever since I saw it in the metal. For me it manages to be super new and exciting for Hublot, yet also 100 per cent on brand. At the heart of this watch (and its appeal) is the movement. The HUB1201 is a big old manual … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Halo effect - the Hublot Big Bang Meca-10 in King Gold appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: A modern take on a classic - the Grand Seiko SBGR305

The belles of Grand Seiko’s Baselworld ball this year were three takes on the first Grand Seiko, a buttoned-up dress watch that managed to be both effortlessly timeless and very of-its-time, all at once. Grand Seiko released steel, yellow gold and platinum takes on the classic, but they also released a completely new interpretation, the … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: A modern take on a classic – the Grand Seiko SBGR305 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The Cartier Rotonde de Cartier Mysterious Day & Night Watch

Cartier may be better known for simple timekeeping classics like the Tank or the Santos. But it’s no secret that the French maison also hosts a history full of complicated – and equally as iconic – designs. In fact, even before the Tank or the Santos were the style icons they are today, Cartier were … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Cartier Rotonde de Cartier Mysterious Day & Night Watch appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The Seiko Prospex SPB051 - an on point reinterpretation of the 62MAS

Nothing gets a watch fan’s blood pumping quite like a new dive watch release from Seiko. And this year, our collective hearts were racing. With Seiko dropping not just a re-creation of the iconic 62MAS – the SLA017 – but also two modern reinterpretations, the black SPB051 and the blue SPB053. And that’s the key … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Seiko Prospex SPB051 – an on point reinterpretation of the 62MAS appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EVENT: Ferrari celebrates 70th birthday with best possible party wingman, Hublot - week-long bash ensues

Usually, an event recap refers to one single event. This one, however, details a week-long bash during Melbourne’s Motorclassica that saw the town literally painted red when the Royal Exhibition Building was lit up in a bold Italian red, with Hublot and Ferrari logos stamping the iconic site. It also included the largest ever convoy … ContinuedThe post EVENT: Ferrari celebrates 70th birthday with best possible party wingman, Hublot – week-long bash ensues appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Ep. #53 - Pre-Wind Up NYC 2017 & Paul Newman’s Paul Newman Daytona

Mike and Kaz get ready for Wind Up NYC 2017 by talking about the brands they're most excited to see. Also, don't kill gators - Kaz's wisdom has spoken. Mike is also taking steps in the right direction to combat his photo of black watches - he decides to pull an old surprise favorite from the watch box. Also, what's your opinion, #watchfam - 60-click bezels or 120-click?

Ep. #52 - The Two Broke Watch Snobs 1 Year Anniversary Special

Special guests Terry from ToxicNATOs joins the Two Broke Watch Snobs to celebrate the TBWS One Year Anniversary! Unscripted watch talk, ballbusting, and horological shenanigans abounds as the group sits down to reminisce on the TBWS and how ToxicNATOs have evolved over the past year. Also be warned, unscripted means unscripted and today's episode gets pretty down, dirty, and non-PC. Brace your shit, #watchfam.

INTRODUCING: The Nomos Orion 38 100 years De Stijl Limited Edition for Ace Jewellers

Dutch design seems to be synonymous with eccentricities, oddities and a flair for the abstract. Characterised by typical and anomalous arrangements and a general nonconformist approach, “De Stijl” design tends to be polarising, to say the least. The term “De Stijl” literally translates to “the style”, and is also known as neoplasticism. Unless you’re up … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Nomos Orion 38 100 years De Stijl Limited Edition for Ace Jewellers appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: When your hands are tied, consensually - Bulgari Serpenti Skin collection

Ancient Greek and Roman mythology furnish Bulgari with emblems from across the epochs, but their love affair with bold women in history also holds sway on their aesthetic. Like serpents, these dangerous beauties are sinful and sinuous - and nothing less than paradoxical. Fittingly, their latest Serpenti watch is a timepiece that can literally shed … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: When your hands are tied, consensually – Bulgari Serpenti Skin collection appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

I can honestly think of few watch/car matches more perfect than that of Hublot and Ferrari. The two occupy similar positions in their respective ecosystems: big, bold, and yes, even brash - but also instantly recognisable and intensely coveted. But beyond that, the carmaker and watchmaker share a fearless approach to design and performance, and … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Design driven – Hublot’s Big Bang Ferrari Unico in King Gold appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Yes, I know - this isn’t a watch. So what are we doing talking about it?

It’s been a strong year for the Submersible collection, with Panerai hitting home runs with the latest Bronzo, the ingenious BMG-Tech and the luxe lusciousness of the solid gold PAM 684.

HOW TO: Start your own ‘minimalist’ watch brand

We all have friends who wear watches made by brands like Daniel Wellington and The Horse. We also all know that these watches are, essentially, identical. Yet somehow these simple quartz dress watch look-a-likes seem to net their savvy owners massive piles of dosh.

HANDS-ON: Last year’s surprise Tudor hit just got bigger - the Heritage Black Bay 41

One of the standouts for Tudor last year was the small and simple Black Bay 36. For the first time Tudor’s key collection shed its dive watch origins in favour of a sleeker, more minimal look. It also lost a sizeable amount of bulk, trimming down to a svelte 36mm, making it ideal for women … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Last year’s surprise Tudor hit just got bigger – the Heritage Black Bay 41 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

There’s a good reason the Portugieser collection is one of IWC’s most popular (in Australia at least). It’s a big, commanding watch that nevertheless possesses a grace and charm that belies its large size. This combination makes it one of the go-to statement watches. But did you know that it’s also got the weight of … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Explaining a legend – the history of the IWC Portugieser appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EDITOR’S PICK: Our A. Lange & Söhne Richard Lange Jumping Seconds video review

A. Lange & Söhne’s Richard Lange Jumping Seconds is an unusual and very serious watch. The jumping seconds, or deadbeat seconds, is perhaps the most stealth complication out there – most people would assume the ticking seconds hand is powered by a battery rather than intricate gearing. It’s also a complication that’s finally enjoying its … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: Our A. Lange & Söhne Richard Lange Jumping Seconds video review appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Seventies style at its best - the Oris Chronoris Date

One watch leapt out at me from Oris’ 2017 collection – the Chronoris Date. Not only is the colour scheme and tonneau case shape pretty eye-catching, but it’s also an honest and authentic homage to the timepieces of the ‘70s. In fact the Chronoris name refers to a 1970 design that was the brand’s first … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Seventies style at its best – the Oris Chronoris Date appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
