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.

It’s a confident watch … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Masculinity meets romance in the Drive de Cartier Moon Phases appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

de Grisogono Instrumento Carbon Chrono; Black Beauty

Is it strange to refer to a men’s watch, one crafted in masculine carbon none the less, as a beauty? Not when it comes to a de Grisogono. Fawaz Gruosi, founder and CEO of the brand, has its own approach towards designing watches, and beauty always seem to be the main ingredient. Followed right by […]

A Case Of A Different Shape; Tortue de Cartier

The Atmos Hermès clock, A Masterpiece Created By 3 Luxury Marques - Hermès, Jaeger-LeCoultre and Les Cristalleries de St. Louis.

My 4th grade composition: “A most enjoyable dream” I had the most vivid dream on one wintry evening in early January. I didn’t know where I was from and when it begun.

A Universal Genève Unisonic Sub, A Longines Comet, A Vintage Seamaster And The Most Beautiful Chronograph Ever Made

Happy Friday, everyone, and I hope you're all staying busy during summer's dog days, perhaps seeing The Odyssey or reading about Milsubs (please note I'm including that not because I have any dog in that fight, just found it interesting). Scorekeeping last week's picks: the Hermès Caleche sold, the Angelus chronograph passed, the Rolex GMT Master II SARU remains available, as does the Bulova White Princ. The Goldberger collection auctions tomorrow. Strays Photo courtesy Weiss Auctions. If you're into impossible projects, here's a decent-looking Heuer 3647T that's missing its outer seconds track. If you know your Carreras, you know that track's actually a tension ring, and you likely also know it's gonna be quite a search indeed to find another, but here at BAL, we scoff at impossible projects. If you'd prefer to chase your own vintage Tudor Ranger rather than buy one of the ones highlighted two weeks back, have at it. For the completist who'd like every last horological oddity, I present this Pigeon Timer. I'm including this Movado M90 not because it's without flaw, but because it's already been bid up to $3750 at the time of writing, which seems high for what's likely mostly a parts watch (that dial can't be original, right?). Please, experts,  weigh in in the comments. Finally, here's a wonderful Omega Ranchero. A few weeks back I highlighted an Omega Railmaster (there's another of those up this week, too). I'm highlighting each of them simply because they're so often...
