Earlier this year Bell & Ross released a pair of their trademark square watches that demonstrated quite a different take on their perennial aviation theme. The BR 03-92 Horolum, a slab of grey metal, was inspired by an airport’s tarmac. This version, the BR 03-92 Horograph, takes a similarly pedestrian inspiration - the ubiquitous and … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Bell & Ross BR 03-92 Horograph appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Every time a bunch of watch guys get together and have a few drinks, this old chestnut rears its head: “What if you could only wear one watch?” It’s a question loathed and loved in equal measure.

At the beginning of the year, IWC declared it the year of the Da Vinci.

Girard-Perregaux is one of Swiss watchmaking’s best-kept secrets. The La Chaux-de-Fonds based brand offers a complete - and compelling - package, fine pedigree, and a catalogue that ranges from the highest of high horology, through to some more accessible (yet still exceptional) pieces.

“Such a shame they don’t take the time to align their screws.

German based Archimede is one of those small brands that quietly go about their business, sticking to their niche and making some excellent watches with minimal fuss.

Over the last few years, Panerai has gone to a lot of effort to evolve their offering.

It’s that time of the year when we start making Jon Snow/winter puns, but they’re getting a bit long in the tooth, so I’ll try and find a new, more topical climate-based pun.

When I first saw the new gold Daytonas at Basel, I didn’t quite know what to make of them.
