I'm currently hovering over the buy button on a Tissot Visodate Auto.

Any thoughts on this watch for a noob before I commit?

Cheers

I like them on looks alone. Never owned one though.

Yeah, I love the design, but I'm a bit torn between this and the Powermatic 80 for it's fancier movement...

Don't own one but know two owners, very nice looking watch. I have a Hamilton Thinomatic which isn't a million miles away in looks but doesn't have a clasp on the strap or a display back.

Do it!

I've had mine for a couple of years and still love it. Very stylish and keeps great time. The only thing that has happened is on the strap- there is a bead of brown rubbery stuff along the edge of the strap which is coming off but easily fixed with a new strap. I'd say go for it....

I would assume they are but maybe that is naive of me. John Lewis have the silver with brown strap for £385. Is it worth that for the peace of mind and 2 year warranty?

I have the gold coloured one, I bought it at Heathrow last January as my "Holiday" watch.

Good discount, on the cruise liner it was $150 more expensive!

Our Engineering Manager has the black/silver version and both look VERY Classy.

Not sure but they might come in different length straps, so check it out as mine is a bit small.
But as it was the last one they had, I took it anyway.

I consider this to be the best value watch I have.
I have a 1971 Tissot PRC Day/Date that is still running and often wear it, so this should last a life time!
