VIDEO: Is the Tissot Seastar 1000 Powermatic 80 the best-value diver of 2018?
This is such a great watch. Honestly. I can’t think of many (if any) Swiss-made watches that offer such a punchy package for this sort of price. Not only do you get the impressive Powermatic 80 movement (more than three days of power reserve rocks) in a good-looking, well-made 300m diver, you get nice little … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Is the Tissot Seastar 1000 Powermatic 80 the best-value diver of 2018? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.
