Elegant, Classy, Solid and it keeps Excellent Time Watch

Every so often, I think to myself, that instead of having a dozen or so "good" watches, I should have two "great" watches. It is in times like those, I look at this Tissot, and I realize had I done that, I would not have this beautiful time piece. My father taught me about the quality of Tissot watches fifty years ago, and I have several, including a T-Touch, but this one is more special than that, even though it does give one the temperature or elevation, etc. This Tissot Chronograph, with its blue face and solid stainless steel band, with its links of polish and brushed metal intermixed along the band, exudes class. I have had mine for two years and have found it to be an excellent time piece, very accurate, with a wide, but not too over-sized, face, deep, royal blue in color, almost navy blue, but not quite (navy blue usually is almost blue-black in color). This watch looks great whether I'm wearing a dark blue window-paned suit or various colored cotton knit shirts with khaki pants.

While the band looks solid, and is, it is not as heavy as one might anticipate, the lock clasp gives a firm click when you snap it shut, and you know this beauty is not going to slip-off your wrist. The crown screws firmly into place, and I have had no problems with any water seeping into it while swimming. The calendar is easy to adjust on those months that do not have 31 days, and you can do so without having to reset the time. Twice a year, I have to reset the time for going in and out of daylight savings time, and I have noticed the time is accurate to within a second, perhaps two. The crystal is thick and very scratch resistant (Mine doesn't have any scratches, so that is either a testament of the hardness of the crystal, or I'm taking better care of things (which I doubt because I still get a scratch on one or two of my "sport" watches).

There were a couple of comments on the illumination of the dial being weak, but I haven't experienced this. While I keep my watches in a drawer, this Tissot begins glowing within a few seconds after taking it out of the drawer and start waking down a dark hallway. I guess the individual hour markers could be wider, but unless I've put it on upside down,I haven't had an issue with deciphering the time, other than while watching a movie and looking down at the face. It seems the older I get the longer it takes my eyes to adjust, to this, or any other analogue watch, in a theater.
