VIDEO: ABOUT TIME with Andre Agassi
Watching Andre Agassi play changed my tennis game, but reading his biography, Open, changed my life. I love tennis. And I was impressed, of course, by Andre’s second coming, when, in 1998, he rose from a ranking of 110 to number 6 in one calendar year. It was a quantum rankings leap that remains a record. But putting the whole context of professional tennis aside, I’ve never read a biography so excoriatingly honest. It is a self-examination few would have the mettle to undertake. “I’ve never been scared to admit my weaknesses because I’ve always needed to as a tennis player,” is one of his opening lines. Regular viewers of Time+Tide will recognise this as more of an ‘About Time’ episode, where we ask amazing people how they manage their time, and seek their thoughts on how to jump through those rare windows in life that open up. It’s about timing. I’ll be honest here. For the watch obsessed, there’s not a lot to learn. And we captured most of it in the shorter version launched earlier in the week. But for the human beings among us that are striving to be their best, to reach the heights, though? This…

NEWS: Tudor announces David Beckham as new brand ambassador
At Baselworld Tudor unveiled a campaign and brand tagline – Born to Dare. Today we got a better understanding of what this means with the announcement of David Beckham as global brand ambassador and famous face of the Born to Dare campaign. At first the news of a luxury watch brand announcing a new endorsement might not seem particularly daring, but in this case it represents a significant new step for the brand, and a legitimately daring change of direction. This is the first time in many, many years that Tudor has had this level of celebrity ambassador, and certainly the first since the brand’s heritage collection-driven renaissance from 2010 onwards. It signifies an evolution in their marketing. For years Tudor has traded on their stealth kudos, perceived as a brand for people in the know. They also pitched themselves as a brand for adventurers, urban and otherwise. For many, Tudor is the quintessential ‘first good watch’. David Beckham changes all that. Not only does the addition of a top tier global ambassador like Beckham place Tudor in the spotlight, it also speaks to the maturation of the brand. The watches are getting more sophisticated; in-house movements and complications are increasingly replacing ebauches; and…
