INSIGHT: How does Hublot love football? Let us count the ways

Hublot understands the power of a good partnership, and they don’t come much more powerful than the FIFA World Cup. The World Cup is one of the biggest events in the world. World Cup Brazil reached 3.2 billion viewers across the globe, with one billion alone tuning into the final. Russia looks set to be … ContinuedThe post INSIGHT: How does Hublot love football?

LIST: 6 low-key lit watches that you might have missed

Sometimes I like to think of the watch industry’s annual releases like an epic, sprawling house party - the sort where everybody shows up. There’s the classy guys who show up at the scheduled start time (SIHH) with nice wine and house gifts, and then, when it’s all settling into polite chit-chat mode, talking about … ContinuedThe post LIST: 6 low-key lit watches that you might have missed appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

INTRODUCING: Coming at you like an 800-pound Gorilla – the Fastback GT Mirage 

A relative newcomer on the watch scene (debuting in 2016), Gorilla is a brand that isn’t shy about throwing its weight around. The brainchild of Octavio Garcia and Lukas Gopp (formerly designers at Audemars Piguet), Gorilla does things its own way, and doesn’t mess around. Inspired by comic culture and American muscle cars of the … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: Coming at you like an 800-pound Gorilla – the Fastback GT Mirage  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Stay golden – the Girard-Perregaux Classic Bridges 

One of Girard-Perregaux’s leitmotifs is the golden bridge. Typically deployed in a trio, the golden bridges - with their broad, arrow-headed shoulders and pleasing, perfectly aligned symmetry - have been holding the brand’s wheels and balances in place since 1860. The golden bridges first showed up in a wristwatch in 1981, and these days it serves as … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Stay golden – the Girard-Perregaux Classic Bridges  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Jaquet Droz’s Grande Seconde Skelet-One shows off its strong bones 

One of the things I love most in watches is when a brand challenges my preconceptions. That’s exactly what happened in Jaquet Droz’s Basel booth earlier this year. I was surrounded by writing machines, jewelled butterflies, automata of all shapes and sizes (well, not really, but you get my point), and then BAM! I saw … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Jaquet Droz’s Grande Seconde Skelet-One shows off its strong bones  appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EVENT: Hublot loves Tim Cahill – the veteran Socceroo has just become a friend of the brand

It was always going to be a tough ask, Australia taking on the powerhouse French team. And in the end the 2-1 score proved the point, but didn’t tell the whole tale. Before we return to the game, let’s take a step back and ask the (very valid) question: Why is Time+Tide talking about the … ContinuedThe post EVENT: Hublot loves Tim Cahill – the veteran Socceroo has just become a friend of the brand appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Two hundred and eighty years is pretty big as far as milestones go.

Is anyone else struggling with the fact that it’s June? I am, and this month’s Spotted is jam-packed with some crazy cool watches.

Last week we had a look at the ‘regular’ version of Cartier’s updated Santos, and today the less-is-more Skeleton is under our lens.

INSIGHT: A brief history of time – as seen by Chanel

It’s a paradox that a luxury house as conspicuously feminine as Chanel should always have had a gender-bending streak. So here comes a quick bit of fashion history – and before you watch geeks roll your eyes and change the channel, let me say that this will help explain everything about Chanel’s watches. Including why … ContinuedThe post INSIGHT: A brief history of time – as seen by Chanel appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Gender-fluid. If you were born yesterday or became acquainted with pop culture only last year, you could be forgiven for thinking – based on the excitable talk among style-and-social commentators – that it’s a newly minted concept. Not so. The 1970s: boys wearing their hair longer than girls; 1966: Yves Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking … and … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Chanel’s exceptional Boy.Friend Skeleton appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

EDITOR’S PICK: Looking back at Blancpain’s commitment to the ocean for World Oceans Day

Editor’s note: Observed every year on June 8, World Oceans Day seeks to honour, help protect, and remind us all of the exceptional need to conserve the world’s oceans. A day that us, as a bunch of sea-loving Aussies in the T+T office, can most certainly get behind. And a day that we thought perfect to revisit these … ContinuedThe post EDITOR’S PICK: Looking back at Blancpain’s commitment to the ocean for World Oceans Day appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Today is World Oceans Day, a day that has, since 1992, celebrated our marine environments, and raised awareness for the need to preserve them. It’s a worthy cause, and one Blancpain, with their exceptional legacy in dive watches, has done a lot to support and promote.

VIDEO: A modern classic – Cartier’s Santos de Cartier

Few watches can rival Cartier’s Santos in terms of on-the-wrist recognition and sheer weight of history. The design debuted in 1904 and has remained fundamentally unchanged in form since. But while the new Santos might look familiar, quite a lot has changed. Small changes have been made to the design and ergonomics of the case, … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: A modern classic – Cartier’s Santos de Cartier appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
