I guess today is tissot day. I took a bunch of my quartz watches to my hardware store 'watchmaker.' I thought I had popped the battery on this. In some ways this is sort of a 'joke' watch. I wore it on my visit to the factory. (So it must have been running.) It did get a good laugh as I recall, Unlike the Omega tour, no one seemed to take it (or me serious.)
Bit tricky to set as there is no crown. Setting is done by a button which advances the movement at a fast speed. The watchlady was having trouble with it overshooting. I was hoping that perhaps some sort of movement overhaul could be done. I may have asked the same thing in Switzerland all those years ago. I think this watch was from a time they want to forget.
On a somewhat more serious note. Actually savy viewers here might notice, I have a bandage on my arm in the lower left. There was a mole in the prior photograph that I have had for some time. I was in the position earlier this week to have it removed. Probably harmless, but in this day and age (and being exposed to trace amounts of raduim dust.) One can never be too careful.
