This Tissot Navigator Sonorous alarm watch screams 1970's retro and is in great overall condition. The huge solid stainless steel case with brushed top and polished bezel ring looks fantastic with the slick silvered dial. Love the florescent orange alarm hand!! Made to compete with the LeCoultre Memovox of the same era, this Tissot is excellent quality and built like a tank. A high quality complicated watch with a funky look at a great price!!!
