Saw this thread, and thought I might throw in my ten cents ...

I bought a Tissott November 2005. Loved it to bits.

About three weeks ago, she started losing time and stopping occasionally .... I thought ok, new battery ... that was fine. Took it to the shop ,check battery, battery fine.

The thing is still in the shop and quoted at $180 for clean up and new circuit board ...(thats over 5 days ago now)

They come with 2 years warranty

Still without watch and spewin that a $500 + watch fucks up just 6 months after warranty. (Hoping Tissott will be reading this thread and seems as though they were the official timer of the moto GP when I bought the thing .. even included a nice little brochure of their accomplishments to rub it in)

am I rambling?

Anyway .. had a Citizen prior to ... beauitifully made and last heaps. It died after 11 years and two batteries. Nice innings.

So endith my ten cents

Love my Arbutus, it's no Tag, but doesn't have that price either!

Plenty of 'em on fleabay.

Damn Richo... Sorry to hear about the Tissot hassles...

I just got mine from Switzerland when i was there last year - love it to bits!

Have a very high regard for Seiko's too.

Ex got me a pierre Cardin watch, fricking nice little watch that, just haven't botheed replacing the battery since it went flat.

Speaking of which, I need to replace the batteries in a couple of watches, inc a fob watch Michelle gave me.

I just received a free watch from Aprillia for test riding a RSV1000R. The watch is what you would expect for free but it works and tells the time. My normal, watch is a Citizen chronograph. The ones that don't need batteries. Its a great watch and not to chunky. I don't like the really big watches.
I also have an old watch that was my grandfathers retirement gift back in 1979. I can't remember the name but it is Swiss made and does not miss a beat.

I don't own a watch. No need for one.............Being in tune with nature enables me to know the time, day or night, to within a couple of minutes.

If PC reads this thread, he will provide independent confirmation....... .....Yes it may sound strange - but its true !!
