What a great watch history lesson Doc ! It's neat because
many people would not connect a company like Tissot with
plastic movements. However, they were actually way ahead
of their time in using them. Plus they were evidently very
accurate and good examples of engineering and watch
making. Those Astrolons were really cool looking too !
I never really knew about this..but it's very interesting how
these ideas would eventually help create Swatch !..It's too
bad that Tissot did not have better marketing for the Astrolons !
If they did..todays watch landscape might look alot different !
Thanks for the info !
