FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 2nd December, 2016 – the rumours edition

FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 2nd December, 2016 – the rumours edition

No, we’re not dedicating this Wind Down to Stevie Nicks and her choice of timepieces (though that would be amazing). No, this week we’re talking conspiracy theories and scuttlebutt. So break out the tin foil hat and the tinnies, it’s time for the most scurrilous Wind Down yet. But before we begin, we can confirm … ContinuedThe post FRIDAY WIND DOWN: 2nd December, 2016 – the rumours edition appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

The story in a second Blancpain has upped the ante on last year’s excellent Ocean Commitment watch, with a second – even bluer – limited edition.

In fact, we spent a good portion of 2015 quietly losing it over how stunning Blancpain’s Bathyscaphe Ocean Commitment was, with its lustrous blue dial and grey ceramic case.

HOW TO: Take the perfect wristshot

HOW TO: Take the perfect wristshot

Editor’s Note: Some time ago, we ran a special edition of the Wind Down (as we are wont to do), which ran through the dos and don’ts of wristshots.

OK, we’re calling it: 1976 was one of the best years in history – for so many reasons. For a start, that’s when Stevie Wonder’s Songs in the Key of Life was released. It was also the year Rocky and Taxi Driver hit cinemas, and superhotties Benedict Cumberbatch and Audrey Tatou entered the world.

Back in the 1930s, Jaeger-LeCoultre’s most famous model was conceived to withstand the rigours of polo, thanks to its ingenious flip-over case design. When the mallets started swinging and balls went flying, the watch could safely bury its face until the action … ContinuedThe post HANDS ON: the elegant double act of the Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso One Duetto Moon appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

There are two main contenders for the title of ‘most recognisable watch in the world’, both of them made by Rolex.

Event Report: Stephen Silver State of Independence Silicon Valley

Event Report: Stephen Silver State of Independence Silicon Valley

About two months ago, I wrote about the state of wrist affairs in Watches of the Silicon Valley. In the article, we confirmed the unsurprising SV stereotypes with the array of Apple watches and Fitbits. Just go up to the city and you will see the sad state of Union Square watch boutiques. Look down in the peninsula and you won't even see a sensible retailer. Or so I thought.
