HANDS-ON: The Golden Snowflake - Grand Seiko’s Spring Drive SBGA259

Grand Seiko’s Snowflake (the more evocative name for the SBGA211 née SBGA011) is undoubtedly one of the most popular watches in their line-up, and understandably so. With its titanium case, seductive Spring Drive movement and one of the best-loved dials in the business, it’s remained unchanged (reference number and dial naming convention) since 2010 (see … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Golden Snowflake – Grand Seiko’s Spring Drive SBGA259 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

NEWS: If you’ve ever wanted to buy a gold tourbillon for $3000 you might just be in luck

Auctions can be funny things. Most of the time the coverage around watch auctions tends towards the record-breaking headlines – the most expensive this, that or the other. But sometimes, thanks to the fact that auctions tend to be a crystallisation of market forces, you can find a hidden gem. Which might just be what … ContinuedThe post NEWS: If you’ve ever wanted to buy a gold tourbillon for $3000 you might just be in luck appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Ep. #91 The Seiko SKX007… That’s What The Whole Show Is About

After having a blast focusing on the Vostok Amphibia, the guys tackle another iconic watch in the affordable spectrum, the Seiko SKX007. Before kicking things off though, Kaz and Mike look back at what it was like growing up in south Florida and getting excited about air shows. Thankfully, the Blue Angels allowed for a quiet recording session, even though they were performing all weekend close to downtown Seattle.

CHAMPAGNE: It’s our 2000th post and all you get is this list of our hottest hits…

I’d like to say I remember the first post we ever published on Time+Tide. But I have no idea. Was it a ‘hello world’ that spelled out our sparkling vision? A watch review of something released early in 2014? Your guess really is as good as mine. That seems pretty average on my part - and … ContinuedThe post CHAMPAGNE: It’s our 2000th post and all you get is this list of our hottest hits… appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EDITOR’S PICK: The evolution of Chanel’s in-house watchmaking

Editor’s note: I’ve been saying for a few years now that Chanel is one to watch on the watchmaking front. They’ve been making watches for years of course, but in more recent times they’ve stepped up the intensity, offering beautiful (and beautifully executed) in-house movements. Sandra has the story … It’s seven years since Chanel … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: The evolution of Chanel’s in-house watchmaking appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: Three times the charm - the Franck Muller Vanguard Master Banker Skeleton

If watch brands were Facebook relationship statuses, Franck Muller would be “It’s complicated”. Not because the Swiss-based manufacturer has commitment problems but, rather, quite the opposite. Since its beginnings in Genthod – located in the countryside of Geneva – the innovative brand has been committed to upholding its reputation as the “Master of Complications”. And … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Three times the charm – the Franck Muller Vanguard Master Banker Skeleton appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

IN-DEPTH: Luxury sports done right - the Zenith Defy Classic Skeleton

The story in a second:  Contemporary design and classic size make this a winning combination. It’s no secret that the Defy is Zenith’s darling this year. Baselworld 2018 saw them release a swag of different versions, including the crazy Zero G, the impressive chronograph, and this watch, the comparatively simple Classic. And while it may … ContinuedThe post IN-DEPTH: Luxury sports done right – the Zenith Defy Classic Skeleton appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Is the Tissot Seastar 1000 Powermatic 80 the best-value diver of 2018? 

This is such a great watch. Honestly. I can’t think of many (if any) Swiss-made watches that offer such a punchy package for this sort of price. Not only do you get the impressive Powermatic 80 movement (more than three days of power reserve rocks) in a good-looking, well-made 300m diver, you get nice little … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Is the Tissot Seastar 1000 Powermatic 80 the best-value diver of 2018?  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Earlier this week we had a look at Zenith’s entry point into the Defy family, the solid-dialled Defy Classic. Well, today we’re going to kick it up a notch with something the brand is particularly famous for - a chronograph. And not just any chrono, but the Defy El Primero 21, a watch that marries the … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: The Zenith Defy El Primero 21 – a cutting-edge chronograph appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Let me level with you. There’s an official tie-in between this watch and the oh-so-English Goodwood Festival of Speed, one of the world’s leading events for motor enthusiasts. I could spend the next few hundred words talking about the synergy between the automotive and the horological (don’t get me wrong, there are real and entirely … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The Montblanc TimeWalker Manufacture Chronograph for the Goodwood Festival of Speed appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Gorgeous and grey - the Bulgari Octo Roma

If you’re reading this and thinking ‘grey’ and ‘Bulgari’, I’m welling to bet your mind wanders to this slender beauty. And while that’s entirely understandable, earlier this year we had a look at another, equally alluring take on the Octo - the Octo Roma with an anthracite sunburst dial.
