We present for sale this unique UFO style Chronograph from Tissot in the 1970s which is a design classic and still sits on its original Gay Freres bracelet. UFO style watches were a typical go to choice for the 1970s being chunky and very distinctive. The choice of colours for this dial are particularly impressive with a cream dial and black subdials complemented perfectly with the red hands used for the chronograph, 30 minute and hour dials. Even the wedge shaped hour markers look great on the watch. The movement is made by Lemania which was known for quality chronograph movements. The sub dials are all doing as they should with a seconds dial, 30 minute dial and an hour dial. The chronograph element starts and stops as it should and the re-set button is working correctly. If you are seeking something distinctive and different this watch will certainly start a conversation! The watch is in fantastic original condition and is working perfectly in all functions.
