In the on-going series of video interviews conducted by ATimelyPerspective’s founder Roberta Naas (author of six books on watches), we take time to talk with those British boys we all seem to know and love in the watch industry. Co-founders of Bremont, brothers Nick and Giles English have won their way into the hearts of…
With the new year upon us and the promise of great new watches being released this year, we took a video look back at highlights of 2017 from several particular brands that were exhibiting at last fall’s WatchTime New York, One of the brands we had the good fortune of meeting with on camera for our…
With the new year here, it means show season will begin. In the watch world, that predominantly means — SIHH 2018, here we come. However, as we know, many other brands capitalize on the fact that so many retailers and press are in Geneva for SIHH and so they, too, exhibit their newest inventions —…
Happy New Year. Welcome to 2018 and the wonderful watch world we live in. This year, we opted not to reflect back on the negatives of 2017. Yes, there were negatives, there is no point in denying it: disappointing watch sales, disappointing product and even disappointing changes in industry personnel. However, the flip side is…
Earlier this year, TAG Heuer did something many watch brands don’t have the chance to do. It honored the still-living creator of the brand’s iconic Autavia watch: Jack Heuer.

One of those brands, Baume & Mercier, may have an extension for us resulting from the company’s partnership with Indian Motorcycle, America’s First Motorcycle Company.

Recently, I was one of seven industry insiders — all women — asked to name one of my favorite picks for watches under $1,000, for Monochrome-Watches. I selected a brand that typically retails for more than $1,000, but that has certain pieces in the under (barely) $1,000: Vortic Watches. I selected the Chicago watch, with…
We have written about Cuervo y Sobrinos many times here before. It is a brand we really love. Not only is it Swiss made, but it has long ties in the watch world, and has firm Cuban roots. Here we take a look at the alluring Cuervo y Sobrinos Historiador Tradicion Champagne watch. Cheers! This…
Not too long ago, a young watch brand emerged on the scene: Reservoir. This Swiss-made brand has a very distinctive look thanks to the fact that all of the watches feature jumping hours and retrograde minutes rather than offering the typical two hands on the dial.
