HANDS-ON: The bird is the word – Bell & Ross’ BRV2-94 Racing Bird that is
Every year, the Bell & Ross design team goes nuts with an incredible and (sadly) hypothetical vehicular creation. This year it was the Racing Bird, an awesomely streamlined take on a prop-powered racer, the sort of machine you’d see at the Reno Air Races. Of course, while the plane is conceptual, the watches are very, … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The bird is the word – Bell & Ross’ BRV2-94 Racing Bird that is appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Old meets new in the Rado HyperChrome Bronze
A few years ago we were prepared to write off the use of bronze in watchmaking as something of a fad, limited to a few cult models. Well. We were wrong.

VIDEO: Grand Seiko 101 – 3 things you need to know
For years Grand Seiko was a very underground, for-those-in-the-know type brand; its visibility outside of Japan was limited, and its passionate supporters revelled in the arcana of cryptic reference numbers, nicknames and shorthand galore.
