    Default Tissot PR 516 GL Electric

    Normally i wouldn't buy battery operated watches, but the sound of this one combined with the sweep hand made it irresistable. Movement shares DNA with the Hamilton Electric.

    That is an interesting balance wheel - it looks like a reel from an old tape recorder. Thanks for posting some cool pics.
    Can you help me fix my watch?..Where does this: go inside this?: I guess that's what I get for buying it on eBay!!!

    That's cool movement there.

    I miss my Tissot which was my first fine watch and it was stolen from my apartment during a break in.
