Add a sporty accent to your business and casual couture with this Tissot titanium women's analog/digital chronograph watch. The watch case and bracelet are made from solid titanium, which is nearly 50 percent lighter than steel, but 30 percent stronger. It's also particularly resistant to salt water corrosion, as well as hypo-allergenic--perfect for those with metal allergies. The digital chronograph enables you to time events up to 10 hours, displaying results to 1/10th of a second, and it offers standard start/stop functionality as well as a split (intermediate) function. It features a black dial with silver Arabic numeral quarter hour markers, silver-outlined hands (with seconds hand), and small minute indexes. Other features include a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and water resistance to 30 meters (99 feet).

About Tissot
For more than 150 years, Tissot has embodied the innovation and tradition of Swiss watch-making. Based in the Neuchâtel area of the Jura Mountains, in Le Locle, Switzerland, Charles-Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Emile created the watch making company Tissot in 1853. Whether in the technology of its movements, in the research for special materials or in the very functions of the watch itself, Tissot's engineers and watchmakers have developed pioneering timepieces over the years. A member of the Swatch Group since 1985, Tissot watches are available in over 140 countries around the world.

Tissot uses the best movements (from ETA SA Manufacture Horlogère Suisse), the highest quality materials (316L steel, 18K gold, titanium) and scratchproof glasses (sapphire crystal--at least 2500 Vickers). The company's timepieces have also been chosen as official timekeepers for world championships in cycling, motorcycling, fencing and ice hockey.

5.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect, August 31, 2009

This review is from: Tissot Women's T65718861 Titanium Chronograph Watch (Watch)

I rated this with five stars because after looking for years, this is as perfect as I am going to find. As a tall, professional woman, I really didn't want dainty, girly watch and was considering starting to look at men's watches. This one has a large enough face without looking masculine and still looking quite professional with a suit. I gave my expensive Baume & Mercier watch away in favor of wearing this Tissot watch.

Pros:

- Sapphire crystal: don't accept anything else; "mineral" crystals scratch way too easily

- Titanium case and band: makes the watch very light in spite of size and very durable

- Analog and digital display: provides the best of both worlds. The digital display is very subtle, sort of gold colored numbers. The two windows for the digital display are particulary subtle on this dark faced version of the watch (I don't think I would like it as much on the lighter faced models). I can display the day and date and I don't have to remember to reset it at the end of every month; best of all, I can actually *see* it. I can keep a second time zone, and I can have the current time zone in a 24 hour clock. I can also use it as a stopwatch, chronograph, alarm, but I don't really need those functions. Mostly, I always wanted to see the day and date, but it was always too hard to remember to reset every month and too hard to actually see on most watches. The second time zone and the auto-synchronizing current time in 12 or 24 hour clock were an unexpectedly useful bonus.

- Watch face is beautiful and has a very high-quality look to it

What would make it perfect:

- True luminescent dial and hands, like a Luminox watch

- Hidden clasp - The clasp it has is quite large and bulky looking

Cautions:

This watch is not for petite women. It is difficult to size this watch. I may be tall, but it doesn't mean I have huge wrists. I took it to one of those watch kiosks in the mall and after working and working, the woman was able to get one link out and was afraid to try for more. There are pins in the clasp to size the watch and I moved down those down two holes in the clasp and it still fits a bit looser than I would like. I suppose I need to take it to a real jeweler to see if they can get another link out. Even at that, I do not think it could ever be sized small enough for a very petite woman.

Wow, how beautifully crafted this watch is! It is super stylish and extremely practical. The Amazon picture does not do it any justice since it looks so much better in real life than any of the pix I found online.

Also, it is made of highly durable materials by Swiss watch makers. Being European originally, I am very familiar with Tissot and would recommend their products to anyone. My grandpa had a Tissot that worked like a charm for more than 30 years.

I love multifunctional watches and always regretted that so few multifunctional women's models are being made. I had my eye on this watch three years back but the price at that time made me pick a Suunto Lumi which was about $300 cheaper. Now that the Atlantic Ocean water has killed my Lumi, I had a good excuse to glance back at my favorite Tissot. I was very pleased to see that the price has gone significantly down. And here I am, finally with a Tissot T65 on my wrist.

Yes, there is no user's manual but with one button only the watch is very easy and intuitive to operate. You only have to set it up once anyway. It is a Tissot, after all.

To sum it up, this is an awesome watch and a great deal.

P.S. The user manual is hidden in the inner sides of the box. There arer tiny pieces of paper sticking out. Just pull them and the two sides will open up to reveal user manual, warranty service centers booklet and a watch collection booklet.

Very highly recommended.

This review is from: Tissot Women's T65718861 Titanium Chronograph Watch (Watch)

First the analog and digital times were almost 30 minutes apart and nothing I could do would synch them up. The chronograpgh function would not work. The date would not show only the incorrect digital time. I tried to find a users manual, as the one in the box did not address the digital side all, but no luck on the Tissot web site.

It did look nice though. The clasp was a little loose so I am not sure how well it would stay closed.

Going back tomorrow...disappointed.
