Tissot's new T-Touch Expert Solar II

Has anyone had a chance to catch this latest one from Tissot?

It's the Tissot T-Touch Expert Solar II which looks to still have the same cool capabilities,
and sensors. From touch technology, to barometer, altimeter, compass, multiple time zones,
alarms, chronograph, and more. Plus green military, and blue marine finishes, along with solar
powered movement, and sporty straps also.

A picture for you guys...

It seems that Tissot makes watches that are further and further from what I like. I can't think of a single one I would lay out my money for and these are no exception.

I love my SeaStars but the new stuff just sucks........too bad.

Unfortunately actually know what you mean Gary. Their line-up just seems to lack the excitement, edge, or
umph of a lot of similar brands like maybe Hamilton, Oris, or Victorinox. I mean they have the PRS 516's, but
would, or could be a lot more interesting with some added updates, or models. Am remembering some cool
Seastars from just a couple years back also, but I don't think they make those anymore either.

Would actually be neat if they maybe looked to the past right?!   Maybe going back to a classic like a lot of
watch companies have been doing in recent years. They could bring back old nameplates, and even designs,
but maybe just slightly updated. I mean they have an incredible history.

Imagine any one of these redone? Or updated today?  

Yes those T-12's would be nice or a ton of other cool stuff they have made. I am just not sure where they are going.

Yup, really have to agree Gary. Let's hope they have a change of heart, and maybe change things
up in the direction they are going. ..Who knows, maybe in a few years, or so they will be on a totally
new track, and will be creating something new, and/or old !
