VIDEO: New Traditions - taking a look at the Rado Tradition 1965
There’s few things I like more in watchland than being surprised. Sadly, it doesn’t happen too often. But when it does, it’s always memorable. And being in Rado’s booth at Basel last year was one of those moments. I had seen the large Tradition 1965 on display and dismissed it without a thought. Who needs … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: New Traditions – taking a look at the Rado Tradition 1965 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: The Bremont MBIII 10th Anniversary limited edition
Bremont is a brand built, to no small degree, around meaningful collaborations - particularly those in the aerospace sector. And of these relationships there’s one that holds pride of place and speaks to the heart of the British brand – Martin-Baker. Martin-Baker has, since 1946, been one of the most important suppliers of ejection seats … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Bremont MBIII 10th Anniversary limited edition appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: The sustainable Submersible, Panerai’s Submersible Mike Horn Edition, PAM00984
There were a lot of very interesting watches released at SIHH. Oftentimes, this interest was centred around complication - and rightly so, it’s really the watch industry’s traditional bailiwick. But for me, one of the most interesting collections overall was Panerai. Panerai, while certainly accomplished at the higher end of the spectrum, tends not to … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The sustainable Submersible, Panerai’s Submersible Mike Horn Edition, PAM00984 appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

LIST: 3 well-dressed men straight up wrist flexing at the 2019 Oscars
There’s an argument to be made for a subtle sartorial flex (and it’s an argument that Barack Obama definitely won with his Rag & Bone “44” bomber jacket btw). Class, elegance, all that jazz. But there’s an equally strong statement to be made for putting your best foot forward, and expressing yourself.

VIDEO: Game, set, match…point. A closer look at Rado’s HyperChrome Match Point
Sports tie-in watches play a - if you’ll pardon the pun - dangerous game. On the one hand there’s a lot of gloss (and potential sales) to be earned from the association with an event that’s under the spotlight. The downside, though, is you might end up with a watch that looks more like a souvenir … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Game, set, match…point.

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15202BC Salmon
The new 39mm white gold Royal Oak uses the ultra thin case and movement with the 2 hands configuration. The watch is intriguing primarily due to the unique dial color. Using the 2121 automatic movement, the 15202BC ticks at 19,800 vph and offers a 40-hour power reserve. It measures 8 mm on the wrist and is priced at US$55,400.

VIDEO: Rado’s off-centre DiaMaster proves that life isn’t always balanced
If you’re looking for a watch that’s a little left-of-centre style-wise, look no further. Rado’s idiosyncratic DiaMaster takes many of the conventions of fine watchmaking and turns them, if not on their heads, at least a little bit sideways. And the resulting watch is, it must be said, quite charming. Of course, there are still … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Rado’s off-centre DiaMaster proves that life isn’t always balanced appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
