Tissot Tradition GMT - our consumer feedback

We really like the Tissot Tradition GMT T063.639.16.057.00 for couple of reasons:

• Good value for money - it is not easy to get a quality Swiss made watch on a decent price.
• Classic look - classic looking watches have timeless design and if they are well made and last they will never become out of fashion. Unlike many offers in the lower segment this Tissot watch does not have the look and feel of water meter.

And if you are on a lower budget but still want to buy a decent chronograph watch, we would recommend you to check the Lorus RT383HX9.
