The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

While hunting for a few small watches on websites, out of sight of my girlfriend, I came across this little one.

It was in very good condition. Its dial was scratch-free, the movement was serviced, and the bracelet was dazzling.

Its shiny dial captures the surrounding light and reveals cross-hatching patterns dancing with its metal indexes.

Despite its age (I think it dates from the 1970s), it's a timeless model with its charm. Discreet and full of character, it fits perfectly on my small wrist.

The Tissot Seastars are affordable models that will delight vintage watch enthusiasts.

A discreet little girl with character.

Zenshin means "moving forward" and facing adversity while remaining calm. 

This is a strong and symbolic word to describe this watch. Light and robust thanks to its titanium case and bracelet, it is forgotten on the wrist. Its movement, a Miyota 8213, nevertheless accomplishes its task very well. 

Larger than its Swiss cousin, the PRX, its dimensions are 44 mm in diameter and 12.1 mm thick, compared to 40 mm and 10.93 mm for the PRX. 

Its dial appears smaller thanks to a small hack. The framing of the indexes by the black seconds band gives us the impression of a smaller dial. 

I chose this green shade because it reminds me of a lake. It is a really pleasant and soothing color that sparkles in the sun. 

A watch that is worth it in terms of quality for the price and which exudes a lot of charm.

Pretty and simple.

I have owned this model for two years. Although my collection is growing, it adorns my wrist every day.

I fell under the spell of its simple and refined dial. The symmetry of its indexes that swim in the deep waters of this black lacquered dial is captivating.
From professional meetings to evenings with friends, it blends into my little wrist.

Discreet, simple and effective.

I have this magnificent Yema Superman that has been with me every day for about 3 years. It is a watch as robust as its look suggests.

I was looking for a watch that would have a design similar to the Rolex Explorer with a steel bezel and I found that this model was close to it. I like its diver and adventurous side

Small downside on the luminous indices which are unfortunately a little weak as you can see in the photos (Yema on the left and Seiko on the right)

It is a solid and efficient watch that shares my curious and traveling lifestyle. Despite the corners of tables, low walls, beach, clumsy girlfriend and other hazards of life it holds up wonderfully!

A Superman who can stand up to anything.

I bought this watch when I was starting to discover my passion for watchmaking, surfing eBay I was attracted by vintage watches with character and sticking to my personality. I came across this watch and it was love at first sight! 

Discreet, classic and above all sticking like a glove to my little wrist it accompanied me faithfully for several years. It is a watch that unfortunately slows down because of its old movement, I wear it during my free time. While having a drink with friends, family or reading a good book. Where it excels in the moments when I am not counting the hours to enjoy the moment. 

It has a plastic Astrolon 2250 movement which is rather original but unfortunately cannot be dismantled. That is why I advise you to think carefully about it if you want to buy one. 



My first Tissot

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 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

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.

Created in 2017 by designer Nicolas Ducoudert, Beaubleu brings a new dimension to watchmaking by creating watches that are aesthetic, astonishing and deeply symbolic.

Breaking the codes of traditional watchmaking by providing a new vision of time, Beaubleu watches go off the beaten track by featuring round, hollowed-out hands, inspired by the work of Galileo in his understanding of the solar system.
