IN-DEPTH: The Hublot Big Bang Unico Red Magic
The story in a second: It’s big. It’s red. It’s Hublot. Red is a colour with some pretty specific cultural meaning - danger, passion, excitement and love. And most of these emotions or associations are pretty applicable (danger, not so much) to Hublot’s latest hot piece, the Big Bang Unico Red Magic, a statement piece … ContinuedThe post IN-DEPTH: The Hublot Big Bang Unico Red Magic appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Seiko’s Save The Ocean - Tuna style - with the Prospex SNE518P
A little while ago Seiko lifted the lid on a tasty trio of dive watches with a marine conservation theme: a turtle, a samurai and a solar chronograph. All united by a gorgeous, graduated blue dial, inspired by both the blue of the sea and its mightiest inhabitant, the blue whale; these summer-suitable divers sure … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Seiko’s Save The Ocean - Tuna style - with the Prospex SNE518P appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Chanel’s Code Coco - a fashion watch that’s so much more than a fashion watch
As someone whose love of watches is focused entirely on mechanisms powered by springs, the word quartz normally evokes the immediate cry of “Next!” So when I stop and spend time with a quartz watch, it must be a bit special.

HANDS-ON: Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Polaris Date - a happy middle ground
There’s a lot of options in Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Polaris collection. But I think this one might be my favourite, the Polaris Date. It’s a choice purists might find a little weird. After all, this is an uncomplicated watch, lacking either the classic alarm or the more impressive chronograph/world timer functionality.

VIDEO: An ideal daily diver, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe in black ceramic
Blancpain’s Bathyscaphe is one of those rare, chameleonic watch designs. A watch that, broadly speaking, owes great fidelity to its primogenitor, but a watch that doesn’t look dated. It’s a neutral watch - something that gives the Bathyscaphe broad appeal and great versatility. In steel, it’s a classic, traditional dive watch, but here, in black … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: An ideal daily diver, the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe in black ceramic appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
