Good watch with great color combination of orange and black .Dial shines very well.It is a birthday gift .Slightly heavy on my thin wrist,the rubber strap is too light for this heavy watch.
This is a great watch, especially for the price. The features you get – chronograph, sapphire crystal, fine details, clasp (vs buckle) on strap – are very unusual for a watch in this price range, especially from a “quality” Swiss brand.
It’s very sharp looking, and it gets a lot of compliments without being flashy. The details on the dial look great in person, with the ridges around the edge of the dial, the orange accents, silvertone hands and hour marks, and “shiny” insert creating a nice mix of dressy and sporty. I also love the detail on the crown and on the pushers.
Unlike some other photos, the pictire here on Amazon does a good job of showing what the reflective part of the dial looks like in real life – it’s a reflective black or charcoal color, not the lighter gray that appears on the official Tissot photos.
I’ve found the rubber strap to be comfortable and haven’t had any issues with it. I was able to cut it myself, which is an advantage (just requires removing the pin and using a sharp knife to cut along some existing indentations in the strap). Even once cut, you can still make small adjustments by adjusting one of the pins. And no complaints about the clasp.
If there are two things I’d change, it would be to add a screw-down crown, and to make the lume (the “glow-in-the-dark” areas) a bit bigger for night use. I can definitely read the watch at night but the hour markings and hand markings are a bit small.
Very good watch. I got it for my b’day and I am really enjoying it. The only problem I think is the strap. The reason being once it is cut to resize you cannot change it. I saved abt 200 compared to original price. I love it.
