VIDEO: We took the VC Overseas collection to an island paradise and It. Was. Glorious.
Was it really necessary? To take a journey involving two flights (one of them aboard a very small plane) to a tropical island somewhere between Sydney and New Zealand that, at any given time, has a maximum of 750 people on it to test out the new Vacheron Constantin Overseas Collection? I would argue that, because Lord Howe … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: We took the VC Overseas collection to an island paradise and It. Was. Glorious. appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HOW TO: Buy a watch when you’re drunk
We’re pretty sure this doesn’t need to be said, but let’s say it anyway. Don’t buy a watch when you’re drunk. Nothing good can come from it. Seriously. Nothing. You’ll wake up hungover, surrounded with bottles of Dom/Chivas/Pabst (depending on budget and taste), considerably poorer and with a rare Enicar Sherpa Graph heading your way via … ContinuedThe post HOW TO: Buy a watch when you’re drunk appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

A Word on Haute Horlogerie Finishing
Finishing encompasses a variety of techniques. The application of traditional Genevan/Swiss-style finishing is not unlike writing a sonnet: there is a very particular, strict form you have to follow, but within that form, you are free to express yourself to the limits of your skill and taste. The basic vocabulary includes anglage, or the bevelling […]

Promiscuous Wrist: Girard-Perregaux 1966 Minute Repeater, Annual Calendar & Equation Of Time
Despite the fact that the Promiscuous Wrist, by definition, gets around a lot, it (or I, I should say) has never had the chance to test-drive a watch with an equation-of-time complication. For that matter, we’ve never had a run around the block with an annual calendar either. So, when the chance came to kill […]
