“I definitely think the Porsche Design by IWC Ocean 2000 is undervalued, but don’t expect that to last forever!” 6 reasons it might be a sleeper classic
When the idea was first hatched that we would work with IWC on auctioning a rare-in-this-condition Porsche Design by IWC Ocean 2000 ref 3504 for charity, a name quickly emerged as someone to consult with on the process.

INTRODUCING: The Bremont Armed Forces Collection
Alongside its regular production models, Bremont has long been creating bespoke versions of its watches for personnel in the world’s militaries, customising dials and casebacks with the logos and insignias of their units. These custom-made designs were always limited, however, and only ever made available to those in uniform, while the rest of us civvies … ContinuedThe post INTRODUCING: The Bremont Armed Forces Collection appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

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.

INTRODUCING: The Bremont MBIII 10th Anniversary limited edition

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.

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.
