Beaucroft and Time+Tide Solaris GMT Review
The Beaucroft Solaris GMT special edition celebrates British watchmaking with a striking purple‑orange gradient dial that evokes a sunset seen from the sky. Housed in a 39.5 mm 316L stainless‑steel case featuring a scratch‑resistant coating, the watch measures 12.6 mm in thickness, offers 100 metres of water resistance, and is powered by a Miyota 9075 automatic movement with a 42‑hour power reserve and independent GMT function. Its 3‑link stainless‑steel bracelet mirrors the case finish and includes quick‑release pins and micro‑adjustment for comfort during travel. Limited to 200 pieces, the Solaris GMT is priced at £800 (US $899) and can be pre‑ordered through Time+Tide’s New York Discovery Studio and the Beaucroft website. The collaboration originated from Time+Tide’s UK retail team, who partnered with Beaucroft to create a watch that reflects the brand’s vibrant design language and the global expansion of the Time+Tide community.
