Description: 1977 Men's Tissot Seastar Quartz Watch This is an exquisite example of a vintage men's Tissot Seastar quartz watch, made in Switzerland in 1977. A brand new battery has been installed, and the 3 jewel movement is running well and the watch is keeping accurate time. The watch features a date indicator, and it works as designed by flipping over around midnight every day. A unique feature of this watch is in how the date and time are set. You can set the date either forwards or backwards (i.e. when you moving the crown forwards, the date increases; when you move the crown backwards, the date decreases). It also has a quick set feature as the default where the hour hand moves an hour at each click/turn of the crown. The minute hand can be set by pressing the crown in and holding for 5 seconds, releasing the crown, then pressing the crown in until the minute hand gets the proper position. The hands and the hour markers have the original luminescent material on them, and it is all intact and still glows in the dark after being exposed to a light source. The blue dial is in excellent condition, with no blemishes to be seen anywhere. The stainless steel case has been cleaned and polished, and shows only minor surface scratches from past use. The crystal is clear with no scratches or chips. A brand new black leather strap has been installed. Overall, the watch is in excellent condition and ready for your wrist! Please see pictures for more details, and feel free to ask any questions prior to purchase. Please keep in mind that it takes a lot of my time, money, and knowledge to get these watches in reliable, running order and to make them look the best they can. I believe I am listing each watch at a fair market value -- I take the time to do a lot of research, and frequently check the "going rate" for watches that are similar to what I am offering (i.e. serviced, running, and looking good). As a result, I do not accept offers. Thank you for your understanding. I do combine shipping -- all items purchased at the same time will be shipped together in one box for a flat $6.00 fee. Simply add the items you wish to purchase to your cart, and when you check out, you should see one $6.00 flat shipping charge. Send me a message if for any reason you see shipping charges greater than $6.00 so that I can send you a refund of the excess.
