Dear ALL experts.

just want to see if I can get any information regarding this watch, as I can find nothing about it in web..

I got this as second-hand today, which is a 36mm, 950 platinum ( but not heavy weight on hand), limited to 33 pieces, Tissot chronometer watch...

But it looked really nice on wrist, as so classy..

please share with me any information regarding this watches.

regards.

i'm going to disagree very slightly with mrsnak. as Omega have owned Tissot since 1937 i would class Tissot as the Tudor equivalent to Rolex. nearly as good, but the slightly cheaper underdog. this makes finding a platinum model all the more surprising. i...
