HANDS-ON: A softer shape – the Bulgari Octo Roma
“When in Rome, do as the Romans do”, rather ironically, is not a saying that appears to be said very often around the watch design department at Bulgari.

HANDS-ON: Undeniably impressive – the Hublot Spirit of Big Bang 45mm Sapphire
The Spirit Of Big Bang is one of my favourite lines from Hublot. Partially that’s down to my occasionally contrarian nature wanting to stand out from the regular Big Bang herd, but mostly it’s because I find the large and in charge tonneau case shape is a perfect complement to the brand’s Art of Fusion … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Undeniably impressive – the Hublot Spirit of Big Bang 45mm Sapphire appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Tudor pares it back with the Black Bay Steel
I’m on record as being quite a fan of the Black Bay Steel. For me, it was one of the real highlights of Baselworld 2017.

Oris has developed a bit of a reputation for consistently releasing surprising vintage-inspired pieces. Having said that, their Big Crown 1917 is a little more surprising than most.

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.
