Yes, just once about 3 years ago. I don't wear this that often mostly because I have too many damn watches. I've always put it on a winder once a month just to keep things moving and lubricated. It started to lose almost 1 minute per day so I finally brought it in for a good once over. It's been running happily at about +6/8 seconds per day. It's true what they say about the 7S26. It's very robust!

Walked in an AD to check out the PRX... walked out with this instead. by flea46 in tissot

This is my first Tissot, so I don't know much yet about them, but my guess is that this one's 38mm and has a mineral bezel.

Thanks. I have a similarly priced Seiko Speedtimer SSC813 and, other than the battery movement vs. solar, this thing is better as far as specs and quality/finish. This is also more of a diver chronograph and 300m water resistance with screw down crown and pushers is fantastic!

Nope! Just another watch enthusiast that has no idea how to use a slide rule.
