Bought mine (exact same version) in 2015 and still loving it. Gorgeous case, crown and dial. Mine is running slow (20 sec per day) + I quickly had to change the cheapy strap, yet I'd warmly recommend it. Stunning watch for this price range of about €500.
Got mine 2 months ago. Exact same model. Very happy with it. Gorgeous, shiny, bit old fashioned. Day and date change in one click every night at 23h57 instead of exact midnight but still quite satisfying feature. Swiss beauty for a reasonable price, 520 € in my case. In other videos, they say this 28-36 movement runs a bit fast, like 1 minute too fast every 3 days, well for about a month mine showed this problem then problem stopped. I have NO explanation, but fact is over the last month it's just been perfectly running with accuracy.
It is still running perfectly fine !!! A great watch, I love it. Only flaw is the strap, more exactly the loops which are low quality and fragile (the clasp itself is excellent). Strap will have to be replaced within 6 months, for sure, maybe sooner.
Astrafalustre Can you please, like Please help me find a good strap. I beg you. I have the watch been 8 months. It's beautiful but think that with a good strap the watch will stand out even better. Plz help
I found one with a silver dial for $650.00 in West Palm Beach, FL ....... a beautiful watch for a very reasonable price ... nice Swiss Made timepiece !!!
OK Patrick, you talked me into this. I just got back from my local Tissot AD with a black face Visodate. It is a stunner! THank you for the video, it was key in helping me decide.
Highly appreciate your comment. I wish I could get watches from stores to review and return, that would allow more people to decide on watches before buying them easier.
I can totally recommend it! Tissot is a very good brand with still reasonable prices. I bought this watch for my father in law, but I love it myself and I really think about getting one for myself. Most family members from my wife's side wear Tissot since long time and they have no problems whatsoever! I really think I need to get one myself too! ;-) A clear recommendation from my side!
Thanks for your great review, Patrick. I agree, this is a beautiful piece. I went to the local department store counter and it stood out by virtue of not trying to stand out - no jewels, exaggerated numbers or chunky angles, just classic design. I have one question, which I hope you don't mind answering on a 6 year old video. I've read a few comments that the sapphire glass is highly reflective and, combined with the black face, the hands can be hard to see, particularly in direct light. Did you (or your father-in-law) have any trouble seeing the face and its details?
From the few days I had it with me before presenting it to my father in law I could see that it was kind of reflective due to the domed glass, but in the end it’s just a matter of turning the wrist a bit or turning yourself out of the light situation.
@@PatricksTechReviews Thanks for your reply, Patrick! I went back, tried it on and decided it was too reflective for my tastes, but this is entirely subjective and no reason for someone not to love this watch, or just apply an easy fix as you suggest. This is a beautiful piece.
Wow, I love the look of this watch! I have never really liked dress watches, but I got to say this one is quite elegant. Do you recommend this watch? Is it worth the penny? Thankful for Answer :)
Hi Patrick. Thanks for your time. I bought mine watch from a reputed although gray market store. There is no reason to think it is a replica, but when I saw that extra space between the letters T and E in the word water, I got a little suspicious. Fortunately, yours looks exactly the same in this and all other details I could check (by the way, have you noticed the extra space I am talking about in yours?) I am enjoying the watch now. Thanks again.
Very good watch. But there is missing 1853 which could make a watch more richer. And Swiss made on the bottom aslo is missing. These two additional information would be better to add. Please follow my reccommendation right now!
Maybe people who work night shifts would love the feature, but not everything new is better. The movement might be older, but there was a smart saying "never change a running system". If it works, keep it.
To be honest I have not worn the watch as it was given as present to my father in law, but it doesn't have a perpetual calendar so it will not work imho.
Beautiful watch! one question, would it be easy to change the strap on it ? just in case it goes bad or just to change between black and brown. Thanks!
You will be able to change the strap, but you need watchmakers tools. They aren't expensive, but you need to know what to do and be careful not to scratch the case of the watch.
Quick advice, which one to go for: this watch or the older le locle silver model with all roman numbers? (more or less the same price), thanks for the nice review !
Bewa luz whichever speaks to you the most . watches are a personal preferences so i would suggest to go with the one that you like the most . as for the movement the le locle chronograph has a Valjoux 7750 which is an higher grade than the 2836-2 though they both have 28800 bhp . either one is a great choice enjoy
No problem mate, watch is real and has been bought in Dubai at the Dubai Mall from the authorised retailer! This is 100% a real Tissot and if yours looks like this it should be real too. Check all the details on the one in this video and compare it to yours.
I saw the review and immediately ordered one. It's a great watch but I have small problem. The day date change does not happen until almost 5 mins over. Any idea what may be wrong and I what should do?
+Yatin Dalvi wow, nice to hear that the review made you purchase one. In regards to the date change, I would maybe see if it adjusts over time (try a week and monitor it). Otherwise check with a Seiko watchmaker or shop to see if there is something wrong with it (which I doubt, as Seiko are usually strong and work very well). One more tip, never change the date when the hour and minute hand are between like 10pm and 2am, as this could cause some damage to the movement. Always move the hour and minute hand towards the 3-9 o'clock position. Good luck.
+Christian Solorzano well, I haven't had the chance to test it, but being a Tissot I would believe it will keep time accurately considering the price point.
I have owned this model for about 4 months and agree with some other owners that it runs fast. If I require true accuracy, I'll throw on a quartz watch. Hope this helps.
+Dicky Arghabi I own one of them since a few years. Got 2 other automatic swiss watches (also with ETA movement) and this one is the most accurate of those 3. It runs a bit too fast (about 1 minute per week) so I adjust it about once in a month. If You want a truly accurate watch, spare for a cronograph (best one of those with tourbillon...)or (even more accurate and way less expensive) buy a Quarz clocked watch - or simply read the precise time from Your mobile phone... ;)
Thanks for the fine review. And some details you taught me which really confirm this my next goal- the date change and the second hand details. Thanks again, enjoy :-)
other models of tissot are powermatic 80 ,instead of normal automatic. So it has an 80 hour power reserve. Is that really necessary ? or does the one withouth a power reserve (so this one) works properly after let's say....... 10 hours of sleep ,and lying there untouched for 10 hours ? Or do i have to set the time everytime i wake up ?
Usually the power reserve on automatic watches lasts anything from 38-48 hours when fully wound. So, if you only have 1x automatic watch that you only take off when sleeping it will be just fine and still run in the morning. But if you are a watch lover and have a collection of automatics you will have to set them if you don't make use of a watch winder.
No it is not, it's a classic mechanical movement that needs to be taken care of. I would bring it to a watchmaker if I was you to make sure all is still where it belongs. But again, depends on how thick the carpet was it fell on. Good luck.
Why would you pay US $ 300.00 more for a 2 year warranty if it comes by default with it? Be careful, cause it sounds like it might be a fake one in the very first place.
Just can’t beat a Visodate , having a sunburst dial on my Hamilton Intra-Matic, you need to add a Black Dial with a sweeping seconds hand comparable to it and this is an inexpensive piece.
I have a question. I've got a Visodate aswell but my date seems te change about 2 minutes after midnight when the watch is ticking. Is this the same with your watch?
As in the video, it changes exactly at midnight (you can see it in the video). Maybe take it to a watchmaker to adjust it or if in warranty send it in and let Tissot adjust it.
I had to decide between the two and went for the automatics III instead because the visodate is a very much retro looking watch which didnt quite hit the spot for me. Also the automatics III is a little thinner with 9,5 mm instead of 12. I can recommend my purchase although the visodate has its own charme i must admit
***** In the end it is always about personal taste. I would prefer the Visodate, you the Automatic III. That;s how it works and luckily there are thousands of design out there for everyone to chose from! cheers
Hi. very nice video and review. I bought one myself recently in the gray market and I am loving it. However, I noticed something strange on the back. There is more space between the letters T and E than it should be and got a little suspicious about it being a replica. From the video I can see yours has the same problem. Did you get yours (i mean your fathers in law) on tissot AD. thanks.
I've seen so many variations of the engravings on the back cover that I don't know if it's reliable enough as a litmus test to see if it is a genuine watch. I just ordered my watch from a reseller on Amazon. All this discussion about authenticity has got me really worried and I hope the watch that is due to arrive after Christmas won't have any problems. I might have to take it to Swatch Group to assess its authenticity. :/
Hi, I've been using the watch more than a month now and I have extensively compared the watch to pictures of fakes and authentic visodate. I can say that there is nothing that can make me believe that the watch I bought is not authentic. It even comes with the tissot warranty card only that it is not duly filled. The warranty you get is third party by the shop you bought the watch from. I have kept all documents relating to the purchase in the event in future I send it to the agent for servicing and they tell me is a fake which is very highly unlikely. Frankly Amazon is very strict about resellers dealing with counterfeit so don't worry too much. Hope this helps.
I mean there are "SWISS MADE" in all Tissot watches but here in some (not all) versions of Tissot Visodate this writing is missing. Also "1853" is missing in Tissot Visodate. I like watches where writtens "SWISS MADE" and "1853" are available. I would like to buy most beatiful classic Tissot watch. But I did not find a beatiful one so far.
+Fozil Sohibov "SWISS MADE" is written on the left and right side of the 6 mark at the bottom on the face. The writing is very small, (like on the most swiss watches) and is almost invisible because of the phased glass edge. But it is there, You just have to glimpse carefully enough... I love this watch. And it has one big advantage: compared to other beautiful swiss watches, it is not soo expensive.
+SH1974 Yes, all is perfect. I have purchased this watch in Milan, Italy on 25 July 2015. Price everywhere in Germany as well in Italy was 495 EUR. In Milan only one shop give me discount and I ought it for 450 EUR. I also got 54 EUR tax refund. So in total this watch cost me 396 EUR. Very good price and watch is very good too. I liked it and wearing it now. Thank you!
Ah... the times Tissot didn't use the crap "Powermatic 80" and the watches were truly serviceable... Do you still have it? 7 years... was thinking of buying one now, had only 1 Tissot LeLocle and felt like a cheap toy, save for other brands yet want a nice affordable Tissot 🤔
I really like it a lot too, I might even get one for myself in the future too as this was a present. Classic watch that will still look great in 25/50 years from now.
I do realize that this may be hard to believe, however, in April of 2017, I just purchased a $50.00 bracelet from Harrods online and they accidently sent me this exact model instead... *It is 100% authentic yet wasn't what I ordered at all so they simply told me to just keep it, their mistake --- And only $50.00 spent. I Never even wanted a watch, so I feel like I've just won the lottery. So far I'm very happy with it, and it's classic simplicity, class and quality.
you should never have to pay full retail price for a watch. instead of buying from tissue's online store or a department store, if you google for authorized dealers such as small family owned stores, you can talk to them to get a better price. The ADs are not allowed by manufacturers to advertise prices lower than the MRP but they can give you 20 to 30 percent discount if you ask. Most of them will ship out of state too which means no sales tax because it is going out of state.
Like which websites can you email and get 20 to 30% off of? I ordered a watch off of Watches88.com. It's a small family owned business in Malaysia with authentic watches. Would a website like that give you a discount if you asked?
i don't think the website you mentioned would give a discount because they seem to provide online shopping.My experience is with ADs here in the USA who do not have an online shopping portal available and therefore will give discounts if you email them about getting something shipped. I would suggest looking up www.watchuseek.com which is a forum for watch collectors and buyers. I found my AD there and since it is a worldwide community, you might get lucky with someone who knows an AD in Malaysia willing to give a discount. Good luck.
Tseten Dekhang Oh I see, you're talking about authorized dealers with physical stores that don't have online shopping. I don't live in malaysia I've just bought a watch off of that website.
Might I suggest looking up the list of authorized dealers for Tissot on their website which shows a list for Malaysia. It might be best to visit the stores or call them and shop around to get a feel for what is the best price they can do. Never settle for the MSRP.
Philip Cooper they do ,its just that they are an entry level watch company that has a very specific gap to fill in an very competitive corporation .and for that reason they cannot step on other lines that produce those watches . e.g Breguet, Harry Winston, Blancpain, Glashütte Original, Jaquet Droz, Léon Hatot, Omega, Longines, Rado, Union Glashütte, , Balmain, Hamilton Here is a nice tissot for you T070.405.16.411.00
Omer Barel I want a hand wound movement, that would have date complication. I know I could buy various watches with a ETA 6497 for example, but those have no date complication.
Ohh check tissot webiste in a different regions as they offer at times different variations of models. I just made an new acquisition of a bulova accutron II and those are just spectacular . Check the surevyor models they do have a date and that super smooth second hand quite revolutionary movement even though its quartz
Omer Barel Nice one, I've been reading about the Surveyor a bit, and they say it's sub 500 USD, which is not bad, considering the name brand and movement.
Philip Cooper get it. That watch mark a new step in the watch industry since the bulova tuning fork . And the accuacry tests on a course of a year are just outstanding. Also the longwood in presicionist in stainless steel with stainless steel bracelet is a great watch to have. Just bought it under $125 through amazon and I'm planing to install blue navy croco band.
An awesome watch.
I got mine one year ago and its running unbelievable perfect.
Its under 1sec per day +.
Just about 4sec + per week!

Yes, I love that instant date change function too! For people working night shifts it’s the best. Cheers
@@PatricksTechReviews absolutely. I worked nights for years and this feature would have been much appreciated.

Can you actually hear the seconds hand moving? I heard the date change "click", but heard no sound from the seconds hand.
Luca Simoncini yea you can clearly hear it :) I have the whwte dial version btw
im wondering why you went with black dial/black strap vs. white dial/brown strap. both look beautiful. i'm wondering what your opinion was on this?
I already have a Louis Erard with a silver dial and brown strap and wanted one with a black leather strap.
Very good watch. But there is missing 1853 which could make a watch more richer. And Swiss made on the bottom aslo is missing. These two additional information would be better to add. Please follow my reccommendation right now!
Hi, I'm not quite sure what you mean?
PatricksTechReviews Which Tissot watch do you recommend me? I need the best classic watch for men.
Thank you!
i want this watch, but have many other tissots already--best boxes in the biz!
It’s always good to have another watch. There is not such thing as too many watches... 🤣
Maybe people who work night shifts would love the feature, but not everything new is better. The movement might be older, but there was a smart saying "never change a running system". If it works, keep it.
how about 30th and 31st (or leap year) matter? did this tissot know how to differential each month? or we shall manual adjust it?
To be honest I have not worn the watch as it was given as present to my father in law, but it doesn't have a perpetual calendar so it will not work imho.

Not sure.
How many times you keep repeating the day&date flip instantly
I have this watch. 10 seconds gain per day. I pull the crown, count to 10, and push it back in once a day.
Richard Burns You've got to calibrate the movement. Ask your local watchmaker/service person.
black or white? which want should i choose both looks good
Black in my opinion.
Do you know where I can buy official Tissot straps for this watch?
Yes, on the official Tissot website or the nearest official Tissot retailer.
Is that a Church bell in the background? When date and day change.
No problem mate, watch is real and has been bought in Dubai at the Dubai Mall from the authorised retailer! This is 100% a real Tissot and if yours looks like this it should be real too. Check all the details on the one in this video and compare it to yours.

+Yatin Dalvi sorry, was replying to other comments and I guess I got mixed up, Tissot it is!! ;-)
Hi Patrick, considering buying this watch, how is the watch running ?
+wxwies1 well, it was a present to my father in law, but so far I haven't heard any complaints from him... :-)
can you wind this watch manually using the crown? Are the dials luminous?
+racerx1326 no lume anywhere on this watch. And I'm not sure about the handwinding, haven't tried it.
Yes
You can handwind the watch using the crown

Why would you pay US $ 300.00 more for a 2 year warranty if it comes by default with it? Be careful, cause it sounds like it might be a fake one in the very first place.

+BipolarUnboxesStuff this is actually one of the nicest watches I have checked over the past years, especially considering the price point on it.

It is, I really like this watch myself a lot. Thanks!
Nice movement ETA 2836-2 8 beats per second. Instant change day and date on dot 12Hoo Midnight.Is that why they call this watch the Visodate?
I don't thing the second hand is curved at the edge, more likely refraction caused by the curved glass.
Just can’t beat a Visodate , having a sunburst dial on my Hamilton Intra-Matic, you need to add a Black Dial with a sweeping seconds hand comparable to it and this is an inexpensive piece.
I’m honestly thinking about getting one for myself. It’s just a great deal!
I have a question. I've got a Visodate aswell but my date seems te change about 2 minutes after midnight when the watch is ticking. Is this the same with your watch?
As in the video, it changes exactly at midnight (you can see it in the video). Maybe take it to a watchmaker to adjust it or if in warranty send it in and let Tissot adjust it.
How do you manually wind the Visodate?
How would you compare this watch to the automatics iii from tissot? (Same price tag)
To be honest, I prefer the Visodate way more, the Automatics III isn't really a nice looking watch in my personal opinion.
I had to decide between the two and went for the automatics III instead because the visodate is a very much retro looking watch which didnt quite hit the spot for me.

Thank you!
Fozil Sohibov I would recommend this one, prices depends on where you live.
Very good!
~€500
Barish K I bought 450 EUR in Milan, got 54 EUR tax refund. So total cost I spent for this watch is 396 EUR.
Fozil Sohibov oh wow, in the Netherlands they're €500 at cheapest
Nice Watch. Where to buy a gd deal online?
Great value for the money . nice eta movement with an 28800 bhp and its a swiss made . you just cant go wrong especially with that watch face .
It's beautiful and I will have to get myself one too as this was a present but I just like it myself so much that I will have to get one.
My Visodate doesn't change the date when it hits 12.00 midnight. It waits till 12.02 midnight.
It there something wrong with the watch?
Maybe it just needs regulation or a service. How old is the watch? Did it get any bangs or it fell down?
Knight Rider mine's changes the date when it's 11:59

Did you get yours (i mean your fathers in law) on tissot AD. thanks.
might get the white one for the next watch, already got edox les vauberts in black
+LoopInc somehow the white doesn't come across as nice as the black one personally, but it depends.
where in dubai did u buy it from??
Is this watch battery operated or is it powered by movement?
Automatic means "No batteries"!
Thanks for replying before me, yes automatic means it is being charged by the movement of your arm.

I've seen so many variations of the engravings on the back cover that I don't know if it's reliable enough as a litmus test to see if it is a genuine watch. I just ordered my watch from a reseller on Amazon. All this discussion about authenticity has got me really worried and I hope the watch that is due to arrive after Christmas won't have any problems. I might have to take it to Swatch Group to assess its authenticity. :/
This one is 100% real, it was bought in Dubai Mall at the Rivoli store, the certified distributor for Tissot in the UAE.
I'm also thinking to buy from a reseller on Amazon. Could you please tell us more the authenticity of your watch?
Hi, I've been using the watch more than a month now and I have extensively compared the watch to pictures of fakes and authentic visodate. I can say that there is nothing that can make me believe that the watch I bought is not authentic. It even comes with the tissot warranty card only that it is not duly filled. The warranty you get is third party by the shop you bought the watch from. I have kept all documents relating to the purchase in the event in future I send it to the agent for servicing and they tell me is a fake which is very highly unlikely. Frankly Amazon is very strict about resellers dealing with counterfeit so don't worry too much. Hope this helps.
Igor Machado It is 100% real, bought from an official retailer in Dubai (called Rivoli) in Dubai Mall.
I mean there are "SWISS MADE" in all Tissot watches but here in some (not all) versions of Tissot Visodate this writing is missing. Also "1853" is missing in Tissot Visodate.
I like watches where writtens "SWISS MADE" and "1853" are available.
I would like to buy most beatiful classic Tissot watch. But I did not find a beatiful one so far.
+Fozil Sohibov "SWISS MADE" is written on the left and right side of the 6 mark at the bottom on the face. The writing is very small, (like on the most swiss watches) and is almost invisible because of the phased glass edge.
But it is there, You just have to glimpse carefully enough...
I love this watch. And it has one big advantage: compared to other beautiful swiss watches, it is not soo expensive.
+SH1974 Yes, all is perfect. I have purchased this watch in Milan, Italy on 25 July 2015. Price everywhere in Germany as well in Italy was 495 EUR. In Milan only one shop give me discount and I ought it for 450 EUR. I also got 54 EUR tax refund. So in total this watch cost me 396 EUR. Very good price and watch is very good too. I liked it and wearing it now.
Thank you!
Is it an in house movement or an ETA one?
Javier Sandoval
ETA is in-house, it´s a swatch group clock. Some of you clock guys needs
to learn a bit about corporate structures etc.
great review... may I ask you where are u originally from?
Thanks a lot. Originally Polish.
That is a stunning watch.....thanks for sharing:)
+Kommander Kool I agree and thanks for watching.
Does it have hand winding?
Yes when the Crown is in the furthest it csn go you csn wind it away from you to recharge it
I bought one just like it yesterday in Dubai at their stand in mall of emirates.
Congrats! You will enjoy it for sure.
According to me the best model is this one with the black dial. No one has the elegance of the black dial with silver hands
I prefer the black one too, just looks the best.
Great review. I just ordered the same model.
Thank you, you will love it for sure.
Great review and I love the watch
+Andrew James Thanks, I like it too, but as mentioned I bought it as a present and I kind of feel I need to get one myself too!
Ah... the times Tissot didn't use the crap "Powermatic 80" and the watches were truly serviceable...
Do you still have it?
7 years... was thinking of buying one now, had only 1 Tissot LeLocle and felt like a cheap toy, save for other brands yet want a nice affordable Tissot 🤔
Hello, nice review. If you want to avoid reflection, use a *CPL filter on the camera lens.
That is correct. Thanks for the correction my friend.
+wrrabec check out my latest review of the Rolex GMT Master II BLNR. Much better quality with close up shots.
Honestly, for the price, Tissot is the best
Tissot makes some beautiful watches and they are still affordable compared to other Swiss brands.
Does it have a perpetual calendar?
+Magesh P no it doesn't.
Excuse me, i've just bought this watch, but mine does not change date and day at midnight (he changes within 1-3 minutes)
That's perfectly normal, some watches change the date even an hour after midnight :)
Not sure, maybe check another piece at the watch store and see if it does the same?
True, some do, but the same model shouldn't do that.
Tissot belongs to the Swatch Group, same as Omega, Rado, Certina and many more.
Beautiful watch, I have seen this model on the bay for $450 new. Great price.
I really like it a lot too, I might even get one for myself in the future too as this was a present. Classic watch that will still look great in 25/50 years from now.
I buy 2 Tissot Visodate silver 3200 Hong Kong dollars ……I like the old logo …and nice price👍😀
absolutely gorgeous watch
+Mike Gizas I agree 100%!!!
Beautiful watch. Wear it in the best of healt.
Where can i buy im here in saudi arabia riyadh
I am sorry, I do not know, I have never been to KSA.
As far as I know, it is an ETA 2836-2 :)
I didn't see it, could you do it again?
+Fu QU sure, just go back to start and watch it again... as many times as you desire... ;-)
much higher quality than I thought, excellent review!
+spencer thomas yes, it's a very good watch and i can only recommend it. Thanks for your feedback.
how big are your wrists?
Great looking watch.
Couldn't agree more with that statement.
How much this watch costs? I have simmilar Junhans.
$650.00 at Tissot Authorized Dealer ..
25 Jewels - which stone does Tissot Use ?
What do you mean which stone? They all use rubins!
+PatricksTechReviews Based on my reading I got to know some use real rubies and some use synthetic ones.
+Chinmay H synthetic stones are harder and more useful. Tissot uses snthetic ones.
For that price, they must use synthetic ones.
I do realize that this may be hard to believe, however, in April of 2017, I just purchased a $50.00 bracelet from Harrods online and they accidently sent me this exact model instead...
*It is 100% authentic yet wasn't what I ordered at all so they simply told me to just keep it, their mistake --- And only $50.00 spent. I Never even wanted a watch, so I feel like I've just won the lottery. So far I'm very happy with it, and it's classic simplicity, class and quality.
That's so awesome. It was meant to be.
I will try my best to pass the message to the new owner, cause it was a present to my father in law! ;-) But I am sure he is treating it well!
Can you please make a video of strap experiment on This watch. Please I will be in your debt.
+fang bite sorry, but unfortunately I can't test it as the watch has been given as a gift to a family member.
Thanks a lot for 100.000 views!
PatricksTechReviews amazing review. Now a big dilemma for me: This one or the same with the milanese straps? Help :s
+Iván Meneses It is. It was shown on the video.

you should never have to pay full retail price for a watch. instead of buying from tissue's online store or a department store, if you google for authorized dealers such as small family owned stores, you can talk to them to get a better price. The ADs are not allowed by manufacturers to advertise prices lower than the MRP but they can give you 20 to 30 percent discount if you ask. Most of them will ship out of state too which means no sales tax because it is going out of state.
Like which websites can you email and get 20 to 30% off of? I ordered a watch off of Watches88.com. It's a small family owned business in Malaysia with authentic watches. Would a website like that give you a discount if you asked?
i don't think the website you mentioned would give a discount because they seem to provide online shopping.My experience is with ADs here in the USA who do not have an online shopping portal available and therefore will give discounts if you email them about getting something shipped. I would suggest looking up www.watchuseek.com which is a forum for watch collectors and buyers. I found my AD there and since it is a worldwide community, you might get lucky with someone who knows an AD in Malaysia willing to give a discount. Good luck.
Tseten Dekhang Oh I see, you're talking about authorized dealers with physical stores that don't have online shopping. I don't live in malaysia I've just bought a watch off of that website.
Might I suggest looking up the list of authorized dealers for Tissot on their website which shows a list for Malaysia. It might be best to visit the stores or call them and shop around to get a feel for what is the best price they can do. Never settle for the MSRP.
Tseten Dekhang I'll just look up for Canada since I don't live in malaysia lol.
It is a beautiful watch. I can't recommend you a site online, we bought this one in the store in Dubai. Sorry mate.
What is squeaky?
Do you guys think it's too dressy to wear with just a shirt and khaki shorts? (casual)
Nah, today pretty much everything can be combined imho.
A nice NATO strap might make it more casual but it would be a shame to cover up that caseback.
I prefer the one shown in my video, just because I don not like the brown band to much on it.
Help me. Am I buy silver or gold this watch? Which better? Which beatiful? ( sorry i am english very bad)))
I personally prefer the steal (silver) version. Hope that helps.
I thinks the movement is (Eta 5901) nice watch !
Why don't they just make hand wound movements anymore?
Philip Cooper they do ,its just that they are an entry level watch company that has a very specific gap to fill in an very competitive corporation .and for that reason they cannot step on other lines that produce those watches . e.g Breguet, Harry Winston, Blancpain, Glashütte Original, Jaquet Droz, Léon Hatot, Omega, Longines, Rado, Union Glashütte, , Balmain, Hamilton
Here is a nice tissot for you T070.405.16.411.00
Omer Barel I want a hand wound movement, that would have date complication. I know I could buy various watches with a ETA 6497 for example, but those have no date complication.
Ohh check tissot webiste in a different regions as they offer at times different variations of models. I just made an new acquisition of a bulova accutron II and those are just spectacular .
Check the surevyor models they do have a date and that super smooth second hand quite revolutionary movement even though its quartz
Omer Barel Nice one, I've been reading about the Surveyor a bit, and they say it's sub 500 USD, which is not bad, considering the name brand and movement.
Philip Cooper get it. That watch mark a new step in the watch industry since the bulova tuning fork . And the accuacry tests on a course of a year are just outstanding. Also the longwood in presicionist in stainless steel with stainless steel bracelet is a great watch to have. Just bought it under $125 through amazon and I'm planing to install blue navy croco band.
It is, a very nice watch!
I will never be awake to actually see it happen switch...otherwise classic looking watch...like it with the metal band
You always sleep before midnight? You should see it at least once in live, it's amazing. ;-)
