Tissot 18k Rose Gold Limited Edition

We have in-stock the Tissot Heritage 150th Limited Edition in solid 18k rose gold. While certainly not a cheap watch at $5995 MSRP, it is a relatively great value and we'd be happy to tell you why.

Any watch collector, or anyone who has shopped for a higher-end Swiss watch knows that you pay a lot for a name. But when you get down to it really, Citizen watches get the job done as well as Rolex or Zenith watches. But comparing a Citizen to one of these brands is like comparing apples and oranges - they aren' t really the same thing. While Citizen probably makes the best quartz watches in the world, there is something special about a mechanical Swiss Watch.
If you are inclined to a genuine Swiss mechanical watch, but there are several entry level Swiss brands like Swiss Army Watches, Hamilton Watches, and Tissot Watches that, while they don't have the cachet of high-end brands, are often comparable in features and quality to higher-end Swiss brands like Omega or Tag Heuer. In fact, the Valjoux 7750 movement found in this and many other Swiss Army, Hamilton and Tissot watches is also found in many high-end watches.
The big price tag on this watch is due to the fact that it is solid 18k rose gold. We think it is basically on par with high-end watches that start out around $10,000.


Unless you have to have the rose gold, there are plenty of Swiss made mechanical watches priced from $395 for a stainless steel, military field style Hamilton Khaki King with a sapphire crystal and 3 hand day and date automatic movement with exhibition caseback to $695 for a super sharp Swiss Army Airboss automatic or $450 for a dressy Tissot Le Locle men's automatic.
