Tissot T-Touch Expert Solar Watch Hands-On
At the beginning of Baselworld 2014, we debuted the first look at the new for 2014 Tissot T-Touch Expert Solar watch, a new pinnacle in the long-standing T-Touch tactile high-function Swiss quartz watch collection. Tissot gave best watches a little hands-on time with the T-Touch Expert Solar, and given the unique features of the watch I felt it was very important to follow-up with some thoughts about the world’s first T-Touch that does not require a battery change.Eventually I am hoping that we can offer you a full review of the T-Touch Expert Solar as there is really a lot to discuss in Tissot’s new flagship T-Touch model [UPDATE: We published our full review here, Feb 16, 2015].

Weiss American Issue Field Watch Ultralight In Titanium And Aluminum Hands-On
Los Angeles-based watchmaker Cameron Weiss recently introduced this limited edition “Ultralight” version of his American Issue Field Watch produced with a grade 5 titanium case and using 7075 alloy aluminum for the movement’s major bridges. It’s a lovely composition that takes the vintage military field watch style look of the American Issue Field Watch and puts it into a rather lightweight package - 56 grams (with the strap), according to Weiss. As the “Ultralight” name implies, it does feel significantly less heavy than most similar watches in steel.It was probably brands such as Richard Mille (with the original Nadal watch) that offered an alternative idea of what a high-end watch should feel like. Traditional wisdom says that a good timepiece is heavy because it uses either gold or other solid metals in the construction. Thus, a heavy watch was supposed to be solid and reliable, whereas a lightweight watch was cheap with questionable durability.
