changed the strap recently. $500+. A new deployant also cost me about $600+

i quite like the traditional pin buckle but hoping deployant can maintain the leather better.

previously the old strap had some plastic and the top where it attaches to the lugs so it forms out smoothly and nicely. The new strap doesn’t have this plastic anymore so what happens is that when you tighten the strap when wearing - the lugs stick out

I tried on the Reverso a while back when buying my Tank, and I feel that it wears larger than the dimensions suggest, even for lug to lug. Not sure why, I think the rectangular case has more visual weight.

Sadly, they don't make the colored Tributes in smaller sizes..

Hi all. I bought this Tissot Powermatic 100 watch for my wife as a gift from Jomashop.
https://www.jomashop.com/tissot-watch-t101-207-16-111-00.html
It's been around 30 days and she has worn it a handful of times. She tells me it loses time.

In the last use it lost 10 mins in 7 hours. This seems like a lot.

I have written in to Jomashop and waiting for a reply. I don't know what a good outcome of this can be.

Would it be worth it to have this fixed in Tissot Singapore? Is such a repair likely to be expensive? Thanks in advance for any advice.

I tink servicing for tissot ard 200bucks.

Btw jomashop warranty prob valid in usa bah. Problem to send back there also.

And my exp with jomashop is meh. I ordered a sunglass cum a tissot racing. Was told then thru a email that the model needs 5wks to arrive to them. But 2 mths passed and i emailed them how. Then they reply no stock n just ship me the sunglass. Meh.

Anyway do we need to pay tax on buying watches from jomashop?

Thanks for the reply. Looks like I will need to talk to Tissot then. 200 is almost the cost of the watch so will be quite disappointed.

Is there any general watch repair person I can go to to have this watch fixed?

As long as the cost is less than $SGD400 including shipping I think no need to pay tax. I did not have to pay tax for this watch.
