That's very nice Jon - though I'm not a huge pocket timepiece fan.

Should I ever be fortunate enough, I'd like to get this titanium w/ tritium beauty:

Funny you should mention.

The Mrs. was cleaning out a box of carp on Sunday, and she found this:

It's a Tissot. I've had it since the early '70s.

GK: I really like the Tissot brand.
I think they're a great value, as they're not hyper expensive, and are actually really well made.

My local high-end watch place (the one that carries the Ball pictured above) also carries Tissot, and I almost got one a couple years back.
I ended up getting a used Swiss Army Chronograph in titanium - because it was mint (at the time), and was at about half of retail.
Also had the same movement as the Tag I really liked at the time, so a few hundred seemed like a no brainer compared to $1500.


While looking for a picture of my watch, I saw this - totally want this:

jon, that portuguese remains my dream watch, ideally in red gold. Such a beautiful design.
