Andrew McUtchen — Sun, 16 Jan 2022 06:00:37 +0000

Some people can’t ever be wrong. They can’t change course when they’ve set off in a direction that has proven unwise because they want to save face. We are not these people. Starting the Time+Tide Club two years ago was not the wrong thing to do. In reflection, it was very right. And we had … Continued

What’s really new with these Grand Seiko Hi-Beat Divers?

Ricardo Sime — Sat, 11 Sep 2021 08:00:58 +0000

It’s been just over four years since Grand Seiko gave us two divers using their venerated 9S85 Hi-Beat movement. Both titanium watches, the gold accented SBGH255 and the limited edition, blue dialled, SBGH257, were absolute beasts at 46.9mm wide and 17mm thick; something one might expect from a 600 metre professional diver. Since then, Grand … Continued

Bulgari’s pivot to the Roma at Geneva Watch Days reveals they’re not just the Finissimo Show

Luke Benedictus — Tue, 31 Aug 2021 02:34:00 +0000

Question: has any watch brand evolved as much as Bulgari in the last decade? In 2011, the company’s watchmaking design division was transplanted from Rome to Neuchâtel in Switzerland in a sign of the brand’s horological intent.

Nick Kenyon — Tue, 16 Mar 2021 03:30:17 +0000

A few weeks back, I wrote about my own Casio G-Shock GA2100-1A (AKA the CasiOak) that I had modified and received a lot of positive feedback about. Many people expressed interest in how different the watch looked after the modification. While I did note that the bracelet wasn’t particularly comfortable on the wrist, I agreed … Continued

RECOMMEND READING: The insane craftsmanship in the Bulgari Octo Finissimo revealed by The Naked Watchmaker

Thor Svaboe — Mon, 15 Mar 2021 03:30:02 +0000

It’s no secret we are rather enamoured with the Bulgari Octo Finissimo and calling it a micro-technological marvel of the new century would not be overselling it. Following our article on Bulgari’s latest chapter of one-upmanship – where they managed to somehow engineer a tourbillon to fit the already infinitessimally optimised space inside the angular … Continued

OUR FIRST 100 DAYS IN OFFICE

Andrew McUtchen — Sun, 04 May 2014 04:25:51 +0000

100 days is a long time in rock’n’roll and in watches. For us, it was two Swiss watch fairs (with approximately 500 watches tried on at each!) it was writing, producing and printing a short-run mini-magazine (well, more of a newspaper), it was a website built and a steadily growing team of contributors, followers and … Continued
