Tissot T-Touch Expert Solar Watch Released
We knew it was coming because we saw a prototype, but for 2014 Tissot will finally release the light-powered version of their T-Touch. Earlier in 2013, we brought you a preview of the new T-Touch Expert Solar from Tissot. They've just released the watch now at BaselWorld 2014, and it definitely looks like it's the "watch to beat" when it comes to an outdoor watch from a Swiss brand. Many people have come to love Tissot's over a decade-old T-Touch collection for its style, functionality, and character. The Japanese may have them beat in terms of functionality for a while, but Tissot finally catches up with a cool new collection.UPDATE (03-30 2014): We've added the hands-on video from Baselworld 2014The T-Touch line is known for the way you interact with the piece, via touches to the sapphire crystal.

So I've been contacted by a scam artist...what do I do?
So i put one of my watches up for sale on Kijiji hoping to gather funds to buy a Rolex Air-King. I am at school in Cambridge, MA right now but I posted it in Ontario, Canada because thats where I'm from and I go home about every 5 weeks for a weekend, plus kijiji is very popular in Canada. Anyways, I immediately received an email from someone stating that they are a local business owner wanting to buy my watch as a nice retirement present for one of his employees. He said as long as the watch ends up being as advertised that he would definitely buy it. So, doing my due diligence, I googled his name. STEVE FRANCOEUR. Google the phrase "Steve Francoeur Windsor" and see what comes up. Scam after scam after scam, all involving watches!

Lost my warranty booklet
As the title says, i just realised that i cant find my warranty booklet for my Navy ap roo. Two questions for anyone who may have gone through this:1. I know ap can send a certificate of authenticity as a replacement if I send my watch in. Question is how long does this process take, and what does this certificate look like?2. If I should want to sell the watch in the future, does having a certificate of authenticity over the original booklet affect the value adversely? I still have the original watchbox.Thanks in advanceSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
