Watching the Detectives Revolution
Oct 17, 2017

Watching the Detectives

In June 2017, Hatton Garden watch dealer Nadeem Malick was sentenced to 18 months in jail for selling £1.2 million-worth of watches stolen during smash-and-grabs, burglaries, robberies and frauds to two specialist pre-owned watch dealers. With luxury watches at increasing risk from theft, and the business of selling stolen watches on the rise, Revolution asked two detectives from New Scotland Yard’s Flying Squad for their advice on protecting your timepieces.

EVENT: Never mind the bollards, this is the Bremont ‘English Tour’ of America

Bremont have relied on old-fashioned techniques to build their business. Firstly, they made a pretty great product. Anyone who’s held a Bremont in their hands will attest to that. They put their watch in a movie. They make watches for the military. And when it came to spreading the word in America, co-founders of Bremont, … ContinuedThe post EVENT: Never mind the bollards, this is the Bremont ‘English Tour’ of America appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: All that glitters – the Tudor Heritage Black Bay S&G;

Around this time of the year I’m prone to a bit of the old ‘best watch’ game – running through my favourite releases in a particular brand or category. And typically it’s a pretty clear-cut decision for me. Not so with Tudor’s 2017 collection. I’ve found myself going back and forth over two watches pretty … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: All that glitters – the Tudor Heritage Black Bay S&G; appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Seeing how the ‘other’ Rolex wearers live, with the Rolex Cellini Time

The Rolex Cellini Time is arguably Rolex’s most conservative model within its most conservative collection, but what we found in our time with the wider Cellini range is that it leaves its flourishes and flair as almost a secret pact between the watch and its wearer. We suspected this might be the case. We’d only ever … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Seeing how the ‘other’ Rolex wearers live, with the Rolex Cellini Time appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Just how thin is the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Automatic?

It’s not too hard to appreciate how thin 5.15mm is in abstract terms – it’s a shade thicker than two 20 cent pieces, FYI – and pictures of the Octo Finissimo Automatic get you a little further along the path to understanding. But short of actually having the watch in your hand or on your … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Just how thin is the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Automatic? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Cartier’s complex marvel – the Rotonde de Cartier Minute Repeater Mysterious Double Tourbillon

Here at Time+Tide we tend to focus on the simpler end of Cartier’s offerings, classic beauties like the Tank or the Drive Extra Flat. But there’s another side to the famous jewellery maison’s watch offerings that’s, well, exceptionally complex. The Rotonde de Cartier Minute Repeater Mysterious Double Tourbillon is one such watch.

VIDEO: Rado’s Coupole Classic is an everyday hero

One of the great paradoxes of the Swiss watch industry is that, broadly speaking, it is locked into a cycle that demands shiny new watch releases (often referred to as novelties) on a yearly basis. Pretty much without exception, these are all watches that are often intended to last a generation or three. What this means … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Rado’s Coupole Classic is an everyday hero appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The Nomos Ahoi neomatik, in eye-popping ‘siren red’

Nomos may be one of the younger players in the watch scene, but they’ve already well and truly stamped their mark on the industry. A very minimalist-looking one, to be sure, but that does not mean that their purist Bauhaus/Deutscher Werkbund-inspired designs are boring. Far from it. There’s nothing ho-hum about a manufacturer who has been … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Nomos Ahoi neomatik, in eye-popping ‘siren red’ appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Aussie! Aussie! Aussie! Franck Muller goes green and gold with limited-edition Vanguard for Australia

One of my main gripes with the watch industry in general is that it’s an overwhelmingly Serious Business. Tradition. Precision. Luxury. Attributes that are easily capable of erasing the merest hint of fun. Thankfully, there are a few brands out there capable of injecting some playfulness into their watches.

The angry man of jazz, Charles Mingus, famously said, “Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that’s creativity.” A saying which, I think, is rather befitting to watches with a GMT or dual time zone complication. Because, let’s face it, having to calculate the time in another time zone can … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Hublot Big Bang Unico GMT appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
