HANDS-ON: The Grand Seiko Spring Drive SBGY003 - thinner, dressier

Grand Seiko has just announced its latest releases at Basel 2019 and, boy, does the Spring Drive - that unique trifecta of electronic, kinetic and magnetic energy - feature strongly. But not just the Spring Drives you know and love, with that arching power reserve at eight. No, in honour of the movement’s 20th anniversary, … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Grand Seiko Spring Drive SBGY003 – thinner, dressier appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Baselworld 2019 Coverage: Our Thoughts So Far

As we make our way through Baselworld 2019's press day, it's already evident that, from a distance, this show feels quite different from what we've encountered in the past. Almost immediately, the Swatch Group's absence has been realized and from the TBWS side of things, this almost significantly cuts down on the number of watches we'd usually talk about. But, we thought it would be fun to gather our thoughts so far and update this post throughout the week as we get our hands on the growing pile of press materials. So here are some watches that have stopped up in our tracks-for better or worse.

HANDS-ON: The Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 Carbotech 3 Days Automatic - PAM00616

A close look at the catalogue will show that the brand born from its Italian diving heritage has quite a lot of diversity on offer, particularly when it comes to … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 Carbotech 3 Days Automatic – PAM00616 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The SBGE215G -  the Grand Seiko Spring Drive GMT in titanium

It’s fair to say that much of Grand Seiko’s catalogue leans towards the dressier end of the spectrum - but, of course, there are exceptions, and the SBGE215G is a perfect example. This sporty GMT is an evolution of the SBGE201G; it shares the same large 44mm case. But while the SBGE201G had a steel … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The SBGE215G – the Grand Seiko Spring Drive GMT in titanium appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

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.

There are certain (and few) movements in watchmaking that truly define a brand. Seiko’s Spring Drive is one of them. Unveiled by the Japanese manufacturer in 1999, it was four years later – after the inclusion of an improved automatic winding system and longer power-reserve – that the smooth sweeping calibre was adopted into the … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Made for adventuring over and under seas – the Grand Seiko Sport Collection Spring Drive GMT Limited Edition SBGE245 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
