I picked this up a couple of days ago. It is a watch that I have been looking at for a while and the right price came along, so I bought it...

Tissot Men's T-Touch "Trekking" Watch - T0015204705100

- Battery Operated Quartz Movement - ETA E40.305 - Multi
- Black PVD Titanium Case
- Black Rubber Strap with black titanium deployant clasp
- Anti-reflective Tactile Sapphire Crystal
- 30 Meters / 100 Feet Water Resistant
- 42mm Diameter, 13.5 mm thick Titanium Case
- Chronograph, Compass, Barometer, Altimeter, Thermometer & Alarm Functions:

Chronograph Function - Chrono Function with split time capability.

Barometer Function - The hands on the watch will superimpose to indicate the variance in the atmospheric pressure. The T-Touch measures these variations to indicate the meteorological trend. When the atmospheric pressure rises, the skies clear. The hands will move toward the right. When the atmospheric pressure decreases, it becomes cloudy. The hands will move toward the left. The digital display will give the absolute pressure in hectoPascal.

Altimeter Function - When the altimeter function is activated, the watch is turned into a barometric altimeter and displays the altitude in relation to average sea level. The T-Touch Multi-function can be set to display the altitude in meters or feet.

Thermometer Function - The T-Touch is able to display the temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit while in the thermometer mode. For the most accurate temperature measurements, the watch should be removed from the wrist for at least 15 minutes so that body temperature does not effect the reading.

Compass Function - While in the compass mode, the T-Touch with the minute hand indicates the geographical North Pole taking into consideration the magnetic deviation. The T-Touch Multi-function will indicate the degree of magnetic deviation between the geographic and magnetic North Pole on the digital display.

Alarm Function - 24 hour alarm function with acoustic alarm.

Overall, I really like it! It is extremely light and the perfect ana dig watch IMO...here are a few pictures (one mine and one from a website)...

Always liked those - Just never got around to getting one.
First I've seen a black version - Very Nice.

Well at least its not Star Treking. I know I'll catch some grief for that remark but it was my first thought. Still working out the kinks in this self moderation. Looks like a useful instrument for land navigation-even dare I say toolish in function. Congrats.

Holy cow Mark, the T-Touch is even better than I thought ! Time for a Trek... Icon_eek

Had been seeing this watch for a while now, and liked the stealthy
case, together with the ani-digi theme. However, I honestly had
no idea about what this watch could actually do ! After reading
all of the functions that you talked about, as well as seeing that
excellent video. I'm basically shocked at how innovative, and of
course cool this Tissot is !!!..To see this watch work in the video
was just remarkable. Never knew you just had to touch the crystal
to make different functions work, and the compass was extra special
imo, but ALL of the functions are out of this world !..It's something
you would expect to see in sci-fi ! Time for a Trek... Alien

..Congratulations on getting
the T-Touch, it's really something else !..Enjoy it !!! Outstanding
video, as well as pictures !
