4.0 out of 5 stars Poor man's Patek; simple elegant dress watch; cheap strap, December 6, 2011

I bought this Tissot to fill a need for a "classic" dress watch lacking in my collection. It certainly fits the bill according to my definition: it's small, thin, has a black strap, simple dial, Roman numerals. Overall, very elegant and unassuming. Like another reviewer has stated, the styling is somewhat reminescent of the iconic Patek Philippe Calavatra, a $20,000+ watch. The watch is so far extremely accurate (it is dead on after a week, determined by setting the watch and referring back to www.time.gov). The case looks nicely finished. The packaging is very impressive: thick heavy box, hidden compartments, couple of small Tissot books.

A few complaints... The second-hand is noticably out of alignment with the indices on the dial; an annoying "defect" that is unfortunately common with quartz watches. I also don't like the plasticky look and feel of the faux crocodile strap. I've owned genuine croc straps before, so I know how they look and feel. The strap is also a little too thick and beefy for such a thin low profile watch. Also, the buckle has the "TISSOT" logo printed on it, which makes it look cheap. It would be more elegant if the logo was embossed. I wound up removing the logo with a Q-tip dipped in acetone (i.e. nail polish remover); wipes right off. Nonetheless, I replaced the cheap strap with a thin, black genuine lizard skin strap ($30) with no stitching. The watch now looks even more classy and elegant and is more comfortable to wear as well.

Nonetheless, I still recommend this watch despite these shortcomings. It is a relatively good value for a Swiss-made dress watch. A poor-man's Patek.

Minimalist design, clear and easy to read dial. Some other watches displaying this elegant design do not incorporate the sweeping seconds hand, this Tissot does, which makes it useful without taking away from the aesthetics. Very highly recommended as a casual or dress watch. Much better on the wrist than in the pictures.
