·Picked this up in a batch of watches. Forgot about this line of Tissot watches from the dark era :-/
Buyer beware.
Buyer beware.
Normally, I'm impressed when I open a Tissot.....

·How is that particular Tissot any better than the all metal geared Lucerne pin lever
Or the Vostok 31 jewel movement?
I am trying to figure out what I’m missing. Are those ceramic gears and will they hold up to the test of time better than these lesser regarded watches and movements?

·The Tissot is a plastic dumpster fire. The only real value of the watch are the hands and crown.
Oh, it doesn't run.

··Never Used A KodakBefore I joined you horrible group of enablers, I liked watches.
But I did not care what was inside them. As long as they looked good and told time.
That’s a nice looking Tissot. Most normal people won’t give a hoot what’s inside. I bet they sold a pile of them.
Keep and enjoy!

·Well, do not open a new modern watch under 2k... You may be quite surprised by a lot of them. Tissot was a precursor in using plastics.

Such is the twisted and fickle area of watch collecting (or should I say watch collectors)...

·A plastic geared watch is high on my want list. As long as it is cheap.
My mentor made some parts for one of the colorful plastic watches with the weird surpintine hands. He did a lot of metal stamping so it was some sort of guard or spring.
Then there is Swatch ...
