TISSOT V8 SWISSMATIC WATCH REVIEW

Tissot introduced a fair number of new models this year, but none of them had particularly stood out to me until this Tissot V8 Swissmatic was sent my way. The V8 is a vaguely automotive-inspired time and date watch that uses the Tissot “Swissmatic” movement. Since it’s derived from the Swatch Sistem51, Tissot is able to offer a lot of value for a reasonable admission of entry. The $450 price tag put this soundly in the ballpark of a high-value graduation gift or even a work week dress watch. Tissot incorporated a good amount of aesthetic variety in the release of this model, giving you plenty of dial and bezel options to fit your taste. There are a few hiccups in the V8’s design that I’ll get into later in this review, and while at this price point there are certainly going to be trade-offs, some of the design issues I noticed might actually be overlooked errors.

Shame about the bezel issues. That is a great looking watch.
