HANDS-ON: Put a smile on your dial – the Bell & Ross BR 01 Laughing Skull

If there’s one thing Bell & Ross love more than aviation, it’s skulls. They have been regularly releasing models adorned with the macabre motif since 2009. However, the two themes aren’t mutually exclusive, with their skull-emblazoned pieces referencing the military airborne units of WWII, who used the Jolly Roger as a not-so-subtle symbol of their … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Put a smile on your dial – the Bell & Ross BR 01 Laughing Skull appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: Smaller, but still smart – the Montblanc Summit 2 

One thing you can be sure of with smart/connected watches is the regular (if not annual) upgrade. It’s true for all the big players in the space, and the luxury sector is no different. And today Montblanc announced their latest - the Summit 2. The topline summary is: smaller, faster and more versatile.

WHAT SEALED THE DEAL: On Chris’s Tudor Black Bay Bronze

Every life is worth living, so why not show off your patina? That’s exactly what I imagine went through Chris’s head when he first lay eyes on Tudor‘s Black Bay Bronze. As it turns out, I wasn’t far wrong, but there were also plenty of other good reasons for him to seal the deal.

VIDEO: Rado’s HyperChrome Ultra Light lives up to the name

For me, the HyperChrome Ultra Light is one of the coolest, cleanest watches in Rado’s collection. Yes, Rado’s heritage collection is earning some serious cred, and their design-y limited editions really showcase their high-tech capabilities. But for me it’s all about the HyperChrome Ultra Light. It’s a regular, round, daily wear watch (and a well-sized … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Rado’s HyperChrome Ultra Light lives up to the name appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EDITOR’S PICK: From $6k to $60k, 6 reasons to love a classic chronograph

Editor’s note: When I began the hunt for my first “good” watch I came up with a list of certain criteria: a black dial, 40 – 44 mm case size, and good looks. However, the main one was that it needed to be a chronograph. It was the added allure of a more complex inside paired … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: From $6k to $60k, 6 reasons to love a classic chronograph appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: A Panerai for the suit and tie – the Luminor Due PAM00943

It would be easy to dismiss the Luminor Due - Panerai’s latest fully fledged line - as a collection oriented towards women. After all, it’s the collection that houses 38 and 42mm watches. But the fact that I am on record as being more than a little partial to the 42mm model aside, there are … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: A Panerai for the suit and tie – the Luminor Due PAM00943 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The Ulysse Nardin Diver Chronometer – streamlined and launched in luxury

In my eyes there’s no better backdrop than the French Riviera to launch a luxury dive watch. And it seems Ulysse Nardin think so too, unveiling four new iterations of their Diver Chronometer amongst the glamour and affluence at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show. Plotting a cleaner bearing for the collection with a host of … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Ulysse Nardin Diver Chronometer – streamlined and launched in luxury appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

LIST: 5 of the greatest watch moments on Antiques Roadshow

I have a not-so-secret love in my heart for Antiques Roadshow - specifically the UK version, but the US version is pretty good, too. If you’re not familiar with the concept, it’s a show where random members of the public show up and have their junk/priceless artefacts evaluated by a range of hilariously eccentric antiques experts. … ContinuedThe post LIST: 5 of the greatest watch moments on Antiques Roadshow appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

SPOTTED! By AG: Dispatch 14, September 2018 – some cars, more watches

September was very much a mix of cars and watches, which understandably go hand in hand. The strongest commonality between the two hobbies? The collectors - and their unwavering passion. To kick off September, I made my way down to the German Auto Show 2018, put on by the Volkswagen Club of Victoria. I know enough … ContinuedThe post SPOTTED!

LIST: 5 utterly useless complications and why we love them

The most straightforward definition of the word complication is “a difficulty”. But not to state the obvious, nothing is simple about being complicated. And as watchmakers and watch lovers know, when it comes to watches and their complications, there’s far more than just their difficulty of design and manufacture to appreciate. These added intricacies built … ContinuedThe post LIST: 5 utterly useless complications and why we love them appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: What makes a travel watch? Exploring Rome with the Longines Conquest V.H.P. GMT Flash Setting 

A few weeks ago I travelled to Rome to check out the Longines Conquest V.H.P. GMT Flash Setting, a GMT not like any other. And in between the first-look video, horse racing and spectacular rooftop launches, we thought we’d do some sightseeing around Rome and put the V.H.P. GMT through its paces as a travel … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: What makes a travel watch? Exploring Rome with the Longines Conquest V.H.P. GMT Flash Setting  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

LIST: Do I still rate my top 10 watches of 2017? Uh. Hmmm. Some of them?

There are all kinds of forces at work when you’re under pressure to come up with your ‘best of the year’ lists. There’s end of year fatigue. There’s the hype around new releases, late in the piece. There’s bias of every possible variety. It’s much more clear-eyed in September of the year after. So here … ContinuedThe post LIST: Do I still rate my top 10 watches of 2017? Uh. Hmmm.

Since their dramatic reboot in 2012, Tudor has continually upped the game. From the original Black Bay, to the development of in-house movements, new case materials, and complications like the chronograph, every year brings a new surprise. Based on this track record, I’m always excited to see what Tudor will do next with the Black … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: The Tudor Heritage Black Bay GMT is a contender for the hottest watch of 2018 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Raymond Weil’s latest Freelancer Chronograph looks the business

Raymond Weil’s latest take on their sporty Freelancer Chronograph is – to be blunt – really good-looking. Fundamentally, it’s the same as Freelancer chronos we’ve seen before: 42mm steel case, bulletproof RW500 movement, 12,6,9 subdial layout, day/date and screw-down crown and pushers. It’s a solid piece of kit. What’s new, though, is the colour way.
