This little 39mm ball with a field watch character is actually quite dressed up. With its polished case and elegant typography, it manages to be the most chic of the rail timepieces. A fairly rare edition on the market in this black dial version, it reveals its magnificent caliber through its rear sapphire. The dial is a well-domed double dome that highlights this pretty black dial with these indexes and this truly magnificent typography. The h3 gas tubes that are Ball's specialty are supposed to shine 100 times brighter than superluminova and without the need to expose this to light beforehand. However, this little gem is more than 15 years old now, no more light comes out of the micro tubes and it is necessary to have them replaced by the parent company. What I like beyond its dimensions and all the specs that I announced, are these beautiful hands which, I don't know why, have a particular effect on me. This watch I wanted to acquire at the base as an elegant toolwatch a little goes everywhere turns out to be in fact a discreet, refined and efficient dress watch. Finally, if you do not know the history of ball and its particular history with the development of the railroad in the US, I strongly recommend you to take a look at the brand's website and you will understand why the trainmaster 60' is indeed the queen of elegant toolwatches.

Ball trainmaster 60´ NM1040D

This beautiful, timeless 33x42 Longines Evidenza dress watch in steel, tonneau shape, has all the codes of a chic watch with a lovely art deco touch. A small seconds dial completes the large eggshell dial with its Roman numeral indexes. A small date window at 6 o'clock completes the ensemble. The mechanical manufacture movement with automatic winding turns the pretty straight dauphine-shaped hands. Finally, the 19mm horn-to-horn spacer is dressed in a Milanese mesh bracelet from Joseph Bonnie instead of an original Longines grain of rice that I find a little old-fashioned in terms of style, even if it is very comfortable.

Longines Evidenza L2.642.451.6

This dress watch is a chronograph with a date window at 3 o'clock. The pretty metallic blue dauphine hands contrast with the white guilloche dial. The applied indexes as well as the 4 Arabic numerals 2, 4, 8 and 10 reinforce its elegant character. The reo with a tachymeter scale also brings a beautiful depth. The case has very beautiful proportions with these old-fashioned horns affixed to the pretty 38mm diameter of the dial. We can also note the work on the crown and the pushers. The engraving on the back is very fine, perhaps too superficial. It is a really very chic wristwatch that makes me travel. Indeed, on my wrist, I see myself on the terrace of a café in Venice with a beautiful Italian shirt and a risretto in my hand. Extremely elegant and readable despite all its complications, this little Longines really has the chic to make our Italian class grow.

Longines Ernest Francillon 1867 chronograph

This Phoibos impresses for its value for money. Indeed, it ticks all the boxes of the technical specifications (beautiful proportions 41mm cc 46 ec 22mm). Very beautiful finishes with these niece photos in applique with flashy colors on a very pretty textured dial in the shape of waves that capture the light very well. This watch has the luxury of being able to be worn in casual mode on the beach without risk like a gshock with its fantasy and summer colors BUT it is an automatic Seiko tractor, a sapphire crystal, a water resistance of 300m and a ceramic bezel WTF! Bravo the made in china quali!

PHOIBOS WAVE MASTER PY010CR 300M

This little gem with superb proportions and incredible comfort is a UFO. The absolutely fabulous dial in its Aventurine finish with this really very nice phase complication. The titanium brings lightness to this robust and incredibly well-executed timepiece. The photos do not convey the impression of incredible quality of finishes. Only 120 copies in the world and a sale that did not last more than 1 minute before being sold out. I love this exclusive piece with its unbeatable quality-price ratio and the charm it exudes.

SSC813 the "Seitona panda"

I found this magnificent vintage monobloc gold-plated watch in perfect condition. This pretty lady with a beige dial and very fine gold indexes is very chic with a diameter of 35mm. No date, and very fine hands, which reinforces its elegant side. I had been charmed by this jewel to complete my watch collection and wear it for social occasions. Failed! My wife set her sights on it…. It became her chic outing watch to match her little black dress and high heels.

Tissot Seastar Seven gold 18k de 1969

This beautiful 1969 automatic belonged to my mother who bought it at the time, for professional dives all over the world. Its retro style and small size are really in tune with the times! But time has still left its mark by giving it a sort of magnificent patina that has improved it. This timepiece is a dive into my childhood and my family emotions. Beyond its beauty and reliability (it works perfectly), it gives me incredible nostalgia and pride because it carries within it a soul and a story... that of my mother.

A real dive into 1969

With my profession, I risk damaging my beautiful watches. So, for my daily professional life, I need a very, very robust, reliable watch with useful complications (alarm, timer, date, day, etc.). However, I want a watch that I find pretty and suitable for my wrist that gives me as much satisfaction as my beautiful automatics (but that I can drop, knock, etc.). The solution is the G shock GM-2100... my love for green timepieces is reflected in this beautiful futuristic metal dial. This watch with very reasonable dimensions for a G shock makes it seem like something else. And for this price, honestly, this timepiece is incredible!!! The only flaw may be in this rubber strap that is too rigid, which makes it less comfortable to wear. Finally, this addictive model really has a lot of charm, and manages to transform itself into an almost luxurious and chic watch despite all the features that make g shock objects Wow 🤯

Green Casio-Oak metal  waou !

This pretty, very contemporary dress watch is a reliable and efficient companion. With its Powermatic 80 caliber and its beautiful power reserve, this Tissot is easy to live with. Its metallic silver sunray dial surprises with its beautiful, very changing reflections but remains very readable with its shiny and well-contrasted indexes. The date is also very readable at 6 o'clock. Its diameter is a little imposing for a dress watch but its finesse makes it very comfortable. I dressed it with a pretty bracelet from my favorite brand (Joseph Bonnie) in 21mm. And yes, the horn to horn is not standard on this timepiece.... Finally, its crown is a real delight to handle and the very sober but modern design allows this watch to be versatile while remaining elegant and tasteful.

A modern dress watch

This magnificent Longines Spirit Zulu time was my first truly beautiful automatic watch. I had to wait until I was forty to buy it. It brought together everything I was looking for. A real GMT, a quality caliber, a watchmaking history, an aesthetic love at first sight. Longines is a brand that speaks to me, because I have a namesake ancestor who was an aviation pioneer and who used on-board instruments from this magnificent Swiss brand. It was therefore natural that I would turn to a watch with the characteristics of pilot watches with a little retro side. Then, the aesthetics of the dial, the green ceramic bezel, and this magnificent 42mm case completely captivated me. I love the combination of colors, materials and textures on this jewel. The finishes and quality are also incredible, not to mention its precision. Indeed, the CoSC certification is largely overlooked by my favorite timepiece. This watch is simply magical.

The Longines spirit, a captivating jewel.

This pretty Yema is a favorite. The colors of the dial blend perfectly with the bronze bezel and the pretty green tropical bracelet from Joseph Bonnie, which is very comfortable. 100% French watch. Its vintage sporty side with its small diameter of 39mm and its impressive double-domed sapphire makes it truly charming.

A charming French diver.

The Tissot brand was created in 1853 by Charles-F&eacute;licien Tissot and his son Charles-Emile in Le Locle in Switzerland. Since its creation, the brand has distinguished itself by offering a pocket watch indicating two time zones. As it developed, Tissot had to structure the house to focus on the export market and more particularly in Russia. Tissot is known for its innovation. She created the first antimagnetic watch in 1930 and the first automatic wristwatch displaying 24 time zones without manipulation in 1951.
In 1971, she also created a model made entirely of plastic, including its mechanical movement, the Tissot Astrolon. The brand positions itself in the mid-range and wants to offer quality at an affordable price. In the Tissot range we find flagship models such as the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/tissot/prx_powermatic_80"> Tissot PRX Powermatic 80</a>, the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/tissot/le_locle"> Tissot Le Locle</a>, the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/tissot/telemeter_1938">Tissot Telemeter 1938</a>, the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/tissot/v8_swissmatic"> Tissot V8 Swissmatic</a> or even the <a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/tissot/seastar">Tissot Seastar</a>.

A real 70's look this Tissot which is in clinical condition!!! Automatic and with a magnificent monobloc case. One of the prettiest in my vintage collection, super pleasant to wear with its jubilee which suits it wonderfully, moreover it is my only watch where I have never tried another strap so much it suits it wonderfully 😉😉I hope you will like it as much as I do but I have no doubts about it 😂

Tissot Seastar visiodate automatic seastar seven 70's

I am an absolute fan of my watch which was only made in one copy by Tissot in 67 for the designer of the logo of the universal exhibition in Montreal in 1967 Julien Hébert. This dial Terre des Hommes makes this watch unique without brand without date no other information than this magnificent logo going around and these sublime black and gold indexes

World Expo 1967

When we talk about Tissot Seastar, we think more of a diver than a dress watch. But just like Omega with its Seamaster range, Tissot has produced many classic Seastars. Here is a model from the early 70s that I have owned for at least 25 years. It has never let me down, despite a total lack of maintenance on my part. Mea culpa. It must be said that this small FHF ST 90-4 caliber with manual winding is of exemplary reliability, and relatively precise. The black hands, black second hand and black Roman numerals on a white dial ensure perfect readability of the time. This is one of the main reasons why I love this watch, and I wear it quite often. The 36 mm case (excluding the crown) is gold-plated, but fortunately so because the black and white of the dial could quickly become austere. While here, the Tissot has a little "classy" touch, which is highlighted by a pretty brown leather strap with a perfect patina. It therefore has its place in my collection.

An elegant Tissot Seastar

We are far from these last very interesting releases with the PRX in particular.
To travel a little more with this little bit of history that Tissot tells us with this SeaStar from the 70s. I would say that this watch is a candy from the past, with a dial that exudes decades gone by. A patina on the dial that here pulls as much on the green as on the beige or even champagne at times.
So it is certain that many here will see only an uninteresting bit of the past, and I dive into it as if to try to find out what this beauty could have lived.
A heart beating with a precision that could make the recent ones blush, an incredible lightness a diameter of the time. Nothing great and yet

Tissot SeaStar Automatic

This Tissot has become from beyond the grave, we can say, after a good overhaul as well as a little facelift, especially with the change of its "glass".
This watch had belonged to my grandfather who had given it to my father after a good overhaul I wear it with nostalgia on my wrist.
Just like the Seiko I find that it can easily change its look with a new Bracelet.
As many other watches could leave my collection, this one will remain!

Family watch

I got this watch some time ago from my father's things.
He told me that it was his father's, therefore my grandfather's, whom I never knew.
With this watch I feel like I know him.

This Tissot Seastar Automatic has a contained diameter of 35 mm and is a simple three-hand watch.

I really like the Tissot "T" logo applied to the dial and the case back engraved with a sun on this watch.

It is quite damaged, scratched everywhere, a polish and a change of plexiglass would not hurt it...

I mounted a pretty two-tone nato strap on it which gives it a summery look.

In short, a pretty simple vintage watch.

Tissot seastar vintage (my grandfather's watch)

Tissot Seastar1971 Cal manual 781-1. One of my first watches; bought on the bay a few years ago, it was a nice surprise for me. The watch was cosmetically very clean, the dial not pitted. Seastar obliges, screwed back and pierced horns like in the good old days, very practical for changing the straps. The watch works very well and the silver sunray dial, very classic, goes well in all circumstances. Of course I forget swimming! A good little classic that echoes my PRX: watches that give a lot without breaking the bank.
