Thanks for this detailed review! Yesterday I buyed mine. The titanium colored clock with the black silicone wristlet. Unfortunately my wife is going to hide it until Christmas..😂 I'm so exited! Greetings from Germany!
Sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost my account password. I love any tricks you can offer me!
@Billy Dominic thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@@DougFNJ Too bad Tissot haven't fixed this in all this time that the watch has been out. I've seen this issue reported elsewhere with this particular model, so they have to be aware of it by now. I have the same thing with my Garmin Fenix watch -- if you sync with the phone there is always a similar lag (though not with direct GPS syncing in the case of the Garmin). In the case of my Apple and Casio G-Shock watches, the phone syncing is always dead on, so it is possible to do this properly. Tissot just haven't bothered to. A shame because the watch is outstanding otherwise in my opinion. Could you get this message to Tissot through a contact you might have there? I don't think reports to their customer service ever go anywhere.
Excellent review, LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH CONNECTING VIA BLUETOOTH…THERE IS AN EASY FIX! SET THE DATE TO SWITZERLAND DATE! TRUST ME I TRIED PAIRING IT 15 TIMES BEFORE MY SON WAS ABLE TO FIND SOME OBSCURE COMMENT ABOUT IT AND IT WORKED RIGHT AWAY!
Maybe I am too late to buy this watch which is now roughly three years at the market. Best review I have seen!!! Do you know if success is in the pipeline? Cheers, have a nice day and stay safe Tobias
Thank you so much. I’m hoping one comes soon. Hoping it would be closer to the size of earlier T-Touch watches. I haven’t heard any rumors of a gen 2 yet, but I’m keeping an eye out and will review it when it does.
@@djdoc06 my first one was out by close half a second. Tissot replaced it and the next one had the minute hand a third of a minute out. I returned that one and had my money back and bought a Garmin Fenix 6X Pro Sapphire instead, which is excellent. In both cases, recalibrating the motors did not correct the issue. At that price and given the fact that it is motors that move the hands, I could not accept the margin by which both watches were out by. There is no excuse for them being out of alignment at all.
It's a large one, I always find larger watches are good to get the comparisons so you know what you are looking forward to. Thank you very much for watching and taking time to comment John.
I believe the watch now tracks activities using your phone’s GPS. But what about the built in GPS chip, is that used for anything other than the Bring Me Back feature?
Nice review. I have one of these coming in as my 10 year service award for my job. Had no idea what it was until watching this video. I noticed you wore it on your right arm. Are you left handed? I am and I’m concerned about my ability to manage the crown with it on the “wrong” side for us lefties! Curious if you can let me know how problematic it might be. Thanks
Thanks for watching, happy I was able to help. Yes, I am lefty and wear my watches on my right wrist, I haven't found it to be a problem as I navigate with the buttons and the touch screen. I do wish more companies would allow you to rotate, that's one thing I love about the Apple Watch vs any smartwatch.
Hey..nice informative video...but the mobile connect app is still limitedly available and not available to dnload in India. Surprised as Tissot is ignoring one of the most important market in the world? do you know anything about this?
Why didnt you show us precisely how to takeout and replace links on the bracelet?.so so annoying. i saw another reviewer of seiko watches on you etube at least try. he had trouble too .truly truly the metal bracelets are well past their use by date.i say to industry, if you are going to continue to offer a product like this, for heavens sake ,reinvent it.just get into your head that when buy a watch,particularly for good money, i just want to put it on without stuffing around.i can do that with a nice leather band that is ready to go
I hate replacing pin and collar links, this one was painful enough that I brought it to my local jeweler to do for me. I like that they do have options of the bracelet or straps, and different dial types.
If it's an everyday wear, it becomes second nature. But that's why I like doing these reviews, you know what you'd be getting, and they are definitely not for everybody. Thanks for taking time to comment George, Happy Holidays
Looks nice, but I definitely need a proper GPS to track my activities without having to have a phone along. Really a pitty that was not built in. My small Garmin does that no problem.
I hear you, this is a first version. I am really looking forward to seeing where the future versions go. Right now, its a great ABC watch with the perk of notifications and longer battery life than others in its class.
@@djdoc06 I bought mine through Ticwatch based out of the UK. Arrived to USA in 2 days, and they have discounts for first time orders. www.ticwatches.com/tissot-t121-420-44-051-00-mens-t-touch-connect-solar-silver-titanium-watch-p35041/s35471?cid=USD
@@djdoc06 Glad you were able to order! I purchased around the holidays, may be why I got the discount. They still are selling these below retail which was good though. Please let us know what you think when you get it!!
Superb. My tissue T touch was stolen when guys robbed me at gunpoint in my house. Haven’t been able to get another for about 8 years, but I think I will be able to afford one next year. Loved the T touch.Quick question, eventually the battery will need to be replaced,how long will the battery last before needing replacement , because the solar will keep it charged.
Thats horrible!!! Thank God you weren't hurt! Just a heads up, when you get a nice watch, call your homeowners insurance and schedule it. I had an Omega Seamaster stolen from a gym locker years ago, it was replaced within 2 weeks. I cover all watches I own with higher values. Good luck! As far as the battery, my solar G-Shocks and Citizens have help up amazingly over the years, and I mean well over 10 years. I have yet to have to replace a battery. Shouldn't need to worry about it for a long long time.
@@DougFNJ awesome. Thank you. This time I will be insuring them. Thanks for the heads up about the battery life. I get tired of replacing batteries in watches every 2 years. So moved to mechanical. But I just love the T touch.. I also line that the hands alignment it perfect in the watches.
Thank you very much! It's 100M Water resistance, I would be ok taking it swimming, but I wouldn't dive with it or take it into mud. This one I treat like a regular Analog in my collection, the G-Shocks go into the Ocean and mud scenarios. Thanks again!
Great review. Just one question because I didn't understand it well. Does the watch shows you incoming calls? The number, just a vibration because you have a call, anything?
Thank you for watching, I wish I demoed that. When someone calls, you get the notification and the ability to accept or decline the call.....if you accept, then you just pick it up on the phone. That could vibrate or give you an audible signal or both.
Yesterday I purchased this model in titanium. It's just a song! The perfect combination of Swiss quality and advanced technology. Everything connected easily. They look like a million! Thank you, Tissot! Warm greetings to everyone from free Ukraine!
Hi. Does anyone knows where to buya charger? I got this watch but no charger. I know battery last long time but i will eventually run out. Cant find it anywhere online. Would buy it anywhere. Any help is appreciated. Thx guys
I went back and forth with the 2 versions, I ultimately picked this for the bracelet. If Tissot releases the black with the black bracelet, I would likely get it. Just a few more months away!
Another great quality Review Doug. Really enjoy the detail you go into. Anyone looking at buying one of these should definitely watch this video. Keep up the good work. Thank you Mate.
@@DougFNJ Doug, can I ask you if the stw can stay on the display indefinitely like it can on the original solar t-touch? I would like to run the stopwatch for timing purposes but be able to see it at a quick glance. Thanks!! :)
its about time someone actually explain all the function of this watch beside only activity tracker.....lol........im contempating on this watch,........i have a tissot tstar 1000 already and i love tissot more then tag belive it or not......hehe........but that mario cart tag t connect is sic so is the price.........good review
Thank you for taking the time to explain the highlights of this timepiece. Although I am more of a mechanical watch guy I do appreciate the extra functions of a smart watch. I have the Tissot High T and was disappointed when the wireless support ended. I really liked that I could get up-to-the-minute news on it. At the time I used to blow my boss away by interrupting him with the latest headlines from around the world. (Luckily, he got a kick out of this, so didn’t fire me). Just yesterday I ordered the Solar T Touch so I will be watching your video a few more times to make sure I got it right. I notice in your video that the second hand is dead-beat. However, I saw a short clip somewhere else where the second hand ran smooth. Is there a setting for this on the watch? If so, I want to set it to “smooth” as I prefer that action instead. I really like that this is solar powered. The one drawback with the High T was that I had to charge it every day. I also like the size. Makes it much easier to read what is on the dial. Again, thanks for sharing. Also, I just subscribed.
Thank you Harold, really happy this helps. I used to love those Microsoft Spot Watches, I had the Suunto version. I was bummed too when they removed support and canned it. Smart Watches have definitely come a LONG way since then. With the smooth hand, I am wondering if thats an update since Ive sold mine. I am considering repurchasing one and seeing how it's been updated since. Got some great reviews coming up, thanks for the sub!
I own this watch and I HATE this watch. It looks great but the software never works. The notification goes by so fast. The light on the display is briefly illuminated. I paid a lot of money for this watch and I HATE it.
For me a watch must put highest priority on keeping accurate time. Since it connects to a phone, which has radio communication and Internet connectivity, does it synchronize its time with the phone, or with network time via NTP? I don't see this mentioned on the Tissot Website, nor in your video. Having to adjust the time manually would be a deal breaker for me, might as well stick with mechanical watches then.
Great review. I have this watch. Can you tell me how to make to see in the digital window the date. Like at your video. In my watch I see the time. Thank you.
Yes, disconnect it from your bluetooth first. Press the top button to go to the touch, press the T-Touch at 6:00 bottom to get into quick settings, then go into settings, go to system, scroll to the last option to restore to factory settings. I hope that helps.
Hi, still haven't decided to get one. Did you happen to try the latest software functionalities? And please, as a positive criticism, add sections of night usage to your reviews.
Thanks for watching Puralena. Night usage is tough to do with low lighting. May give it a try in a future video. I sold the watch a few months after the review. Have a ton of reviews I need to catch up on. I may look to acquire another one of these in the future and do an update. Thanks again!
@@DougFNJ Thx. I had a look at one today. And it surely is the best package for my usage. The only 'smart' function is the step counter. Which is fully logical I don't carry my mobile 24/7. As this one still needs daily charging.
Nice vid. Thanks for that. One question though : Can you see the remaining countdowntimer time on the display while the hands show the current time ? This is very important for me. The same question applies for other functions like stepcounter, chrono, date, time2 etc.... I tried to find the answer to this question by watching a ton of vids and reading the manual. Even a visit at a Tissot dealer didn't help me (no demo model). Thanks in advance
I've watched a million T-Touch reviews on RUclips and yours is by far the most comprehensive. Nonetheless, I still have one burning question that no one has addressed, probably because such a feature doesn't exist on this timepiece. When the T-Touch connects to the phone, does the time on the watch refresh itself from the phone like an Oceanus will or in the same way an atomic watch will refresh itself overnight with a radio signal?????? Or, if there's no auto refresh, does the time on the T-Touch drift as any quartz would?? I am VERY interested in purchasing this watch if it has such a feature. Thanks.
Thank you very much Luigi, sorry for the delayed response. The app updates the time, and it stays updated as long as it’s connected to the phone, I believe. May drift, but you can update at any time.
Question: Does the second hand tick loudly? ie if you put the watch up against your ear, could you hear the ticking? I'm interested in this watch, but am one of the weirdos who wear watches to sleep.
I wear watches to sleep too, usually an Apple Watch so the silent alarm helps wake me up but not my wife. Never heard the ticking, but my hearing isn't the best. Never hurts to write Tissot a note about it.
Just got this watch and having trouble connecting via Bluetooth between watch and IPhone. It connects but drops the connection quickly. Solution please? Thanks.
Have you updated all firmware on Watch and phone? Try to completely unpair and re pair, and if none of that works, give Tissot support a call, that should be able to help.
There are 2 black titanium versions, 1 with white highlights, the other with orange highlights. Unfortunately, neither have the bracelet. The silicon straps are very comfortable though.
Great review! I would like to know how long it takes (under full sun light) to fill a single bar in the battery power indicator. Mine, after using a single bar was left all day under the sun and the bar didn’t fill up (notifications off and eco mode on). I would like to know if its normal. Thanks in advance👍 Anyone can help?
Solar on a battery like this can take a week to get full. Thats why I love that they offered a manual charger along with the battery life, huge value over traditional smart watches both ways.
I never mention prices on watches. The video is up forever, prices change over time. Easy to find current pricing through Google, or manufacturer website wherever you are internationally.
Its a niche audience, someone who wants more of a round watch that looks more like a watch and provides notifications and basic smartwatch functions. Definitely not for everyone, I love my Apple Watch
I have had several Tissot watches and really love them. Navigator 3000, T-Touch, T-Touch 2, Expert, Expert 2, Expert Solar. Though last expert 2 lost it's turning bezel and Solar stopped charging after a year or 2. Sadly this latest one hasn't got the raised bezel. As I never had any of them with any scratch at all on the glass. Which I counted to the raised bezel. I think the long battery ife is a super addition. And most functions I will likely use, except for step/calorie/distance counters. Same like the temperature in the older version. But now at least getting data from phone. Other thing I would like to see is a full titanium version. Not too fond of black, or any other coating as in the end they will always show wear. Another problem I had with my solar was that during night. To see the time, I had to be lucky that dials were not covering display. And that It was in the correct mode. As I used to see home time or date etc. While during the night I only want a quick, 1 touch to see local time. Any other action would only wake me up.
Thank you for watching and taking time to comment. I'm not as concerned about the raised bezel with the sapphire crystal, I feel the bezel rounds it down a bit. The long battery is what I believe to be the biggest selling point to this watch, nothing out there touches it unless you go into the Casio G-Shock H1000 but that's digital and resin. All versions are Titanium, the black and gold versions are Titanium with PVD. I think these had to be titanium, the weight of steel would had made them too heavy for the size.Curous what happened to the solar on your Expert? Did Tissot cover that under warranty? Ive had many Solar G-Shocks....knock wood never had an issue with the battery. I love that they have the hands move out of the way when you want to read a message, pushing the crown activates the light. I've always like the T-Touch line, this new technology pushes it forward for sure.
I am waiting for Tissot to pick up the Solar. I just love it in the full titanium version. Not sure what's wrong with it. When I place it under direct light. It's battery indicator blinks on the first bar. And that's where it stays. So it might also be a battery problem. But I will see what they find. And then just wait a while to see if they bring out another full titanium version. As this period is also not the best moment to invest in a new watch. I also love the 'blue-ish' carbon look solar cells on my solar. Thanks for your reply and great video. I just don't want to get a silicon band. Due to bad experience in loosing my Seiko Kinetic. That said titanium band and black watch doesn't look too bad either. Though I am sure they will bring out other combinations like they usually did.
Titanium with black rubber wrist band. Tissot is by far my fav watch brand. I inherited a beautiful OMEGA constellation but i gave it to my son. I was my dads. He's is walking the streets of glory. Both and son and I have watch fetishes. A safe craze but we can only wear one at a time. The touch crystal is amazing.
Thanks Pedro! The Omega is a beautiful watch to pass down, I'm glad he loves it. Amazing the differences in technology from one to the next. Tissot has really been putting out some great products. I am really looking forward to seeing where they go with these watches.
I think it's a great first version. It works well, very few bugs, and when bugs have appeared they take care of them quickly. They've released it in phases, and it's done everything its advertised to do. Curious your thoughts on what they did wrong with this?
Great walkthrough. I'm looking at the new North American pre-order notice now for May delivery. Any word on changes or tweaks that have been made since your first (limited) release model? Also, any more feedback on potential hand alignment issues - I see reports here and there which are somewhat concerning at this price.
Thank you, please let me know when you get it, may I ask where you ordered it from? The hand alignment issues happen with all quartz watches. I am OCD and HATE that, the one I reviewed did now have that issue.
@@DougFNJ I did end up buying one through Christine Jewellers here in Canada last Boxing Day. I have not noticed any alignment issues; all hands consistently hit the marks very precisely. The watch time, synced via the watch app on the phone, is always about a second behind the phone's actual time. It would be nice if Tissot could eliminate this slight lag, but I have seen it on other Bluetooth-synced watches like Garmin as well, although Casio does not have this issue on their Bluetooth models. This is a minor quibble, and overall I really like the watch. I have the black one with the bright orange dial markers and second hand, a very appealing color scheme.
Dear all who are using this watch, please say a couple of words your opinion & experience about this device. Interesting how long the battery is working, every thing about watch
The big thing I really respect about Tissot is this is 100% Swiss made down to the electronics. It's a great watch, and in my opinion, if they could shrink it down a little bit, this could be a mainstream homer for Tissot
Great video! I have the one with the orange numbers on the bezel, the NBA version. I want to get a 2nd one, which is the titanium version which you are reviewing! But my question is, if I were to get a 2nd one, would it still sync with my phone as simultaneously as when I have my first ttsc watch goto sleep? I will definitely be going to have the 2nd one if this can be done. Cheers!
Thanks Arwin, great choice. I really like that black orange combo. I don't know if you could synch 2 watches to 1 phone simultaneously, you may want to reach out to Tissot on that. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to though.
Brilliant review, received mine today in black and orange, pretty straightforward to set up as your video made it very easy to do this,to be honest, I've not been through all the functions just yet,as I'm charging while writing this,anyway my first impression is that it's a great looking watch,just what I was looking for,great battery life as opposed to others, when I'm finished charging will revert back to your video,again great job.👍
Really great review. Thanks a lot. I've owned the anniversary 2003 T-Touch since it came out. It still works great, and the batteries seem to last forever. The screen looks as new now as it did when I took it out of the box. I've been thinking of upgrading to one of these and giving the old one to my son. Since it was the titanium model, it also looks new. Amazing watches from Tissot. Thanks again.
I like this, but the writing ( Activity, Connected, Timing, Navigation) on the bezel insert make it look like the Chinese knock-offs you see all over the web. Take the words off the button also (even Casio does that). Take those words off and it will be much more aesthetically pleasing.
Thank you for watching and taking time to comment. I don't have a big problem with the writing on the watch, it goes in line with the other T-Touch watches, they all have a distinct look.
It's an analog that works like a digital. I wouldn't minimize this is a "digital" for sure though. It's impressive what they were able to pull off with this watch. The sensors, solar, motors that run the hands as accurate as they have, and now a computer chip in there that allows notifications and the potential future firmware updates. I'm really interested to see where they go with this.
I don't know when it will be sold in the Philippines, but I had gotten this from an authorized Dealer in Switzerland when it first released, it released in USA months later. Check out Chrono24, you may be able to find a good dealer, and a great deal.
This is the best review for this watch! Got my Tissot titanium version with a titanium bracelet today! It is awesome and super classy! The phone/Watch finder is a great and cool feature.
Do I have to keep turning the spinning knob to make choices, which is really annoying if so, cos then I would have to lift up one side of the watch every time I need to set something, this would be a complete no no in that case Great review dougFNJ This review definitely helped me choose the non smart version
Does the calorie count and step count work without connecting to phone? I don’t want to connect to any phone and looking to turn off all connectivity. Thanks
You may want to look at the simpler T-Touch solar watches. The app puts the calories in there, the watch itself though has sensors on board which do allow you to use it independently of the phone.
What a brilliant instructional review. Well done! How accurate do you find the step tracker? Thinking of upgraging to one of these from a Protrek. Quite like one of the black versions
I purchased this from TicWatch in the UK, a number of others have too. At the time I purchased, they had a 10% off coupon. If in USA, they ship DHL Express, it arrives quickly.
I’d say start from scratch on the watch, delete and redownload the app, restart the phone, that should get you connected. If not, definitely reach out to Tissot to troubleshoot. Once set up, you could change the C to F in settings.
Hi, great video! What do you think about tissot connected value for money? There are a lot of cheaper alternative, I love this watch but i think it's quite expensive. And what about the reliability? tissot touch expert have some problems.. thanks a lot
Thanks for watching Luigi, I think you get great value for the money. The titanium material, and the amount of technology they squeezed into this watch is extremely impressive designing and engineering. Reliability, jury is of course out, Ive only had it for days, so far it works fine, they do have a 2 year warranty so its covered if there are issues.
If you are in the latest firmware and still having issues, sometimes unpairing and re-pairing helps. If that still doesn’t work, I’d reach out to Tissot support. They should be able to help.
Great review as always. I wanna see you review the best value for money, swiss made smart watch, the Frederique Constant Vitality, which has the heart rate sensor.
I got the new Garmin solar instinct selling it can only do two weeks then charge, rubbish but as far as gps tracking etc was very good. I am a postie so I spend each day 4-5 hours out stil no go! Battery????
I really think the battery is going to be the biggest seller on this watch. They will be releasing a firmware update at some point that will have GPS capabilities to work with your phones GPS
@@DougFNJ I do believe the heart rate should be push to show not have to check it each min or so as it drains battery. So too the gps if you want to use it then make gps on if not in use say after 5min, turn it off. I was in the sun as a postie for like 2-5 hours a day yes the rate of power went up like 2-5 days each day but if on the weekends I didn’t use it, it dropped big time as in how much days of power I had left to use. In the end I was forced to remove most smarts in order to have power to use the watch. For me I’m not paying $699 for a solar watch that a 1980s solar watch can do minus the smarts can do as I’m forced to take then all off! Garmin you failed due to a poorly designed power management system that is either on or off.
I believe GPS is coming soon, I am curious the toll that will take on the battery. Im wondering if that's why they are taking as long as they are to release it.
Apparently the watch doesn’t display your next schedule on your calendar or does it? Same for the weather: would it display weather information taken from the phone’s weather app?
@@DougFNJ I regret that the phone’s weather info cannot be displayed in addition of the local measures of the watch itself. You mention on your review that the temperature sensor of the watch nee the watch to be taken out for some minutes to show the actual temperature… and if you want to know the temperature outside while being in your house then the watch sensor is not the best source of information. I see watch and phone (internet weather service actually) as being complementary. Sad it did not appeared that way to Tissot.
Thanks for this detailed review! Yesterday I buyed mine. The titanium colored clock with the black silicone wristlet. Unfortunately my wife is going to hide it until Christmas..😂 I'm so exited!
Greetings from Germany!
You are going to love it! I hear that silicon is really comfortable. I'd like to hunt one down to swap out the bracelet sometimes.

Thank you for watching and taking time to give feedback, I appreciate that. Which version did you get?
@@DougFNJ Ive got the original t touch, the t touch ii, the t touch solar, and the sea touch.
@@DougFNJ Does this watch have the ability to have multiple timers? Like for instance, one for 1:00 minute and another for 3:00 minutes?
Excellent video Doug, very informative and saved me tones of time reading the user manual, thumbs up!
Thank you, happy to help!
Has anybody else noticed that this watch does not sync precisely? It always lags about one second behind the actual phone time.
I think that’s the slight lag with Bluetooth. Surprised they didn’t compensate with software.
@@DougFNJ Too bad Tissot haven't fixed this in all this time that the watch has been out. I've seen this issue reported elsewhere with this particular model, so they have to be aware of it by now.

Thank you so much. I’m hoping one comes soon. Hoping it would be closer to the size of earlier T-Touch watches. I haven’t heard any rumors of a gen 2 yet, but I’m keeping an eye out and will review it when it does.
Good and complete presentation, word of Swiss guy!
Thank you for watching and the great feedback! I really appreciate that

Very useful review. I have one coming for Christmas and so am looking forward to getting it 😬👍🏼
Congratulations! Please let us know what you think when you get it. Not many have it yet, so fun to hear other peoples impressions that do get it.
@@DougFNJ does the second hand on your watch line up with the markings on the dial? I have seen some videos where the second hand is misaligned.
@@djdoc06 my first one was out by close half a second. Tissot replaced it and the next one had the minute hand a third of a minute out. I returned that one and had my money back and bought a Garmin Fenix 6X Pro Sapphire instead, which is excellent.
In both cases, recalibrating the motors did not correct the issue. At that price and given the fact that it is motors that move the hands, I could not accept the margin by which both watches were out by. There is no excuse for them being out of alignment at all.
Great in depth review! I'll have to see if we have the watch in Australia.
you should ask ArchieLuxury from Brisbane!
I believe it should now be available in all countries
Good review of a complicated watch, good idea to compare sizes with other watches
It's a large one, I always find larger watches are good to get the comparisons so you know what you are looking forward to. Thank you very much for watching and taking time to comment John.
I believe the watch now tracks activities using your phone’s GPS. But what about the built in GPS chip, is that used for anything other than the Bring Me Back feature?
Some watches use the phone and on board GPS for continuity and backup.
Very well described 5hanl you for all efforts put in perhaps you may miss something anything in general you have done great job.
Thank you very much! Happy these can be a resource. 😬👍
Nice review. I have one of these coming in as my 10 year service award for my job. Had no idea what it was until watching this video. I noticed you wore it on your right arm. Are you left handed? I am and I’m concerned about my ability to manage the crown with it on the “wrong” side for us lefties! Curious if you can let me know how problematic it might be. Thanks
Thanks for watching, happy I was able to help. Yes, I am lefty and wear my watches on my right wrist, I haven't found it to be a problem as I navigate with the buttons and the touch screen. I do wish more companies would allow you to rotate, that's one thing I love about the Apple Watch vs any smartwatch.
Amazefit also rotate.
Hey..nice informative video...but the mobile connect app is still limitedly available and not available to dnload in India. Surprised as Tissot is ignoring one of the most important market in the world? do you know anything about this?
Thank you for pointing that out Uday, I did not know that. You should reach out to their customer service and see when they will release it there.
Why didnt you show us precisely how to takeout and replace links on the bracelet?.so so annoying. i saw another reviewer of seiko watches on you
etube at least try. he had trouble too .truly truly the metal bracelets are well past their use by date.i say to
industry, if you are going to continue to offer a product like this, for heavens sake ,reinvent it.just get into your head that when buy a watch,particularly for good money, i just want to put it on without stuffing around.i can do that with a nice leather band that is ready to go
I hate replacing pin and collar links, this one was painful enough that I brought it to my local jeweler to do for me. I like that they do have options of the bracelet or straps, and different dial types.
Too complicated and clunky. Who can remember all the steps? Very impractical. This is not a "smart watch".
If it's an everyday wear, it becomes second nature. But that's why I like doing these reviews, you know what you'd be getting, and they are definitely not for everybody. Thanks for taking time to comment George, Happy Holidays
Looks nice, but I definitely need a proper GPS to track my activities without having to have a phone along. Really a pitty that was not built in. My small Garmin does that no problem.
I hear you, this is a first version. I am really looking forward to seeing where the future versions go. Right now, its a great ABC watch with the perk of notifications and longer battery life than others in its class.
I wish you had demonstrated the sound alerts. My biggest gripe about Casio and the B. Aerospace is the alarms and alerts are so quiet.
Only watch alarm that has some value is Apple Watch. Other makers need work in the speakers for sure.
Great review Doug,Just ordered one of these,Can’t wait.
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback and you watching. Please let us know what you think when you get it!
@@djdoc06 I bought mine through Ticwatch based out of the UK. Arrived to USA in 2 days, and they have discounts for first time orders. www.ticwatches.com/tissot-t121-420-44-051-00-mens-t-touch-connect-solar-silver-titanium-watch-p35041/s35471?cid=USD
@@djdoc06 Glad you were able to order! I purchased around the holidays, may be why I got the discount. They still are selling these below retail which was good though. Please let us know what you think when you get it!!
As a Swiss citizen living in Canada I must and always will buy Tissot watches... this has now moved up to my "must have watches"... time to save
Thank you for watching. Please let me know what you think when you get it.
*Time* to save
That’s a good pun
Wie findst Kanada von Schweiz?
Superb. My tissue T touch was stolen when guys robbed me at gunpoint in my house. Haven’t been able to get another for about 8 years, but I think I will be able to afford one next year. Loved the T touch.Quick question, eventually the battery will need to be replaced,how long will the battery last before needing replacement , because the solar will keep it charged.
Thats horrible!!! Thank God you weren't hurt! Just a heads up, when you get a nice watch, call your homeowners insurance and schedule it. I had an Omega Seamaster stolen from a gym locker years ago, it was replaced within 2 weeks. I cover all watches I own with higher values. Good luck!
As far as the battery, my solar G-Shocks and Citizens have help up amazingly over the years, and I mean well over 10 years. I have yet to have to replace a battery. Shouldn't need to worry about it for a long long time.
@@DougFNJ awesome. Thank you.
This time I will be insuring them.
Thanks for the heads up about the battery life. I get tired of replacing batteries in watches every 2 years. So moved to mechanical. But I just love the T touch..
I also line that the hands alignment it perfect in the watches.
Very good complete reviews
Thank you Sam, happy it helps!
Excellent video . Is it good for diving and mud ?
Thank you very much! It's 100M Water resistance, I would be ok taking it swimming, but I wouldn't dive with it or take it into mud. This one I treat like a regular Analog in my collection, the G-Shocks go into the Ocean and mud scenarios. Thanks again!
Hi, any updates on the App and GPS?
Great review. Just one question because I didn't understand it well. Does the watch shows you incoming calls? The number, just a vibration because you have a call, anything?
Thank you for watching, I wish I demoed that. When someone calls, you get the notification and the ability to accept or decline the call.....if you accept, then you just pick it up on the phone. That could vibrate or give you an audible signal or both.
Yesterday I purchased this model in titanium. It's just a song! The perfect combination of Swiss quality and advanced technology. Everything connected easily. They look like a million! Thank you, Tissot! Warm greetings to everyone from free Ukraine!
Great watch! Which version did you get? I’m impressed that they sourced most materials even in the chip locally.
@@DougFNJ, titanium bracelet.
Hi. Does anyone knows where to buya charger? I got this watch but no charger. I know battery last long time but i will eventually run out. Cant find it anywhere online. Would buy it anywhere. Any help is appreciated. Thx guys
Have you tried reaching out directly to Tissot? They should be able to help.
Just put the watch on a window sill where it has a view of the morning or evening sun. Two days max and the battery will be topped off.
That black with the orange lettering is looking real tough. I’m digging it. I’ll be looking for this when it launches in the U.S.
I went back and forth with the 2 versions, I ultimately picked this for the bracelet. If Tissot releases the black with the black bracelet, I would likely get it. Just a few more months away!
April 30th, presale its running now.
Appreciate the review Doug. Looks very nice for sure!
Thank you for doing all the work to put together the video.
Thanks for watching and taking time to comment Jan. I am really excited to see the direction this watch and platform will go with updates!
Another great quality Review Doug. Really enjoy the detail you go into. Anyone looking at buying one of these should definitely watch this video. Keep up the good work. Thank you Mate.
@@DougFNJ Doug, can I ask you if the stw can stay on the display indefinitely like it can on the original solar t-touch? I would like to run the stopwatch for timing purposes but be able to see it at a quick glance. Thanks!! :)
its about time someone actually explain all the function of this watch beside only activity tracker.....lol........im contempating on this watch,........i have a tissot tstar 1000 already and i love tissot more then tag belive it or not......hehe........but that mario cart tag t connect is sic so is the price.........good review
Thank you, these watches really needed a full demo. lol. Look at their newer models they just released, smaller not as functional, but pretty cool.
Tell me if the clock shows alerts from Telegrams and WhatsApp
Anything that notifies you on the Home Screen on your iPhone typically displays on smartwatches of all types
Thank you for taking the time to explain the highlights of this timepiece. Although I am more of a mechanical watch guy I do appreciate the extra functions of a smart watch. I have the Tissot High T and was disappointed when the wireless support ended. I really liked that I could get up-to-the-minute news on it. At the time I used to blow my boss away by interrupting him with the latest headlines from around the world. (Luckily, he got a kick out of this, so didn’t fire me). Just yesterday I ordered the Solar T Touch so I will be watching your video a few more times to make sure I got it right. I notice in your video that the second hand is dead-beat. However, I saw a short clip somewhere else where the second hand ran smooth. Is there a setting for this on the watch? If so, I want to set it to “smooth” as I prefer that action instead. I really like that this is solar powered. The one drawback with the High T was that I had to charge it every day. I also like the size. Makes it much easier to read what is on the dial. Again, thanks for sharing. Also, I just subscribed.
Thank you Harold, really happy this helps. I used to love those Microsoft Spot Watches, I had the Suunto version. I was bummed too when they removed support and canned it. Smart Watches have definitely come a LONG way since then. With the smooth hand, I am wondering if thats an update since Ive sold mine. I am considering repurchasing one and seeing how it's been updated since. Got some great reviews coming up, thanks for the sub!
I own this watch and I HATE this watch. It looks great but the software never works. The notification goes by so fast. The light on the display is briefly illuminated. I paid a lot of money for this watch and I HATE it.
That’s never good. Have you reached out to Tissot regarding the issues you are having?
@@DougFNJ Nope, I'm done with this watch. I'll wear it as a plain old watch. Really disappointed.
Can I have it off you?
@@riccccccardo Of course not.
@@johnnie135 lol
For me a watch must put highest priority on keeping accurate time. Since it connects to a phone, which has radio communication and Internet connectivity, does it synchronize its time with the phone, or with network time via NTP? I don't see this mentioned on the Tissot Website, nor in your video. Having to adjust the time manually would be a deal breaker for me, might as well stick with mechanical watches then.
Great review. I have this watch. Can you tell me how to make to see in the digital window the date. Like at your video. In my watch I see the time. Thank you.
Tap on the center of the watch, push the bottom right button for a couple of seconds, that should change the display for you.
@@DougFNJ Thank you.
Hello, can you put the Swiss flag and T logo back? instead of date and time?
Hi Bjarne, that flag and logo are just the boot up screen. The screen is meant for full function, would be nice if they allowed wallpaper
Oke, thank you!
Is it correct, that there is no pulse sensor at the back?
Yes, that is correct
I have this beautiful and fine watch and would like it even more if there would be a (switchable) hourly chime in a future update
I would love the hourly chime in the form of a vibration
Is this watch too heavy to wear while running ?
Not at all, that’s the huge pro with titanium.
I have bought this watch and having problems connecting my watch to mu Huawei phone. Any suggestions such as how to carry out a factory reset?
Yes, disconnect it from your bluetooth first. Press the top button to go to the touch, press the T-Touch at 6:00 bottom to get into quick settings, then go into settings, go to system, scroll to the last option to restore to factory settings. I hope that helps.
Hi, still haven't decided to get one.
Did you happen to try the latest software functionalities?
And please, as a positive criticism, add sections of night usage to your reviews.
Thanks for watching Puralena. Night usage is tough to do with low lighting. May give it a try in a future video.
I sold the watch a few months after the review. Have a ton of reviews I need to catch up on. I may look to acquire another one of these in the future and do an update. Thanks again!
@@DougFNJ Thx. I had a look at one today. And it surely is the best package for my usage.
The only 'smart' function is the step counter. Which is fully logical I don't carry my mobile 24/7. As this one still needs daily charging.
Nice vid. Thanks for that. One question though : Can you see the remaining countdowntimer time on the display while the hands show the current time ?
This is very important for me. The same question applies for other functions like stepcounter, chrono, date, time2 etc.... I tried to find the answer to this question by watching a ton of vids and reading the manual. Even a visit at a Tissot dealer didn't help me (no demo model). Thanks in advance
Great review. Looking forward to getting one. Please keep up the nice work!
Thank you very much Billy, more to come!!
I've watched a million T-Touch reviews on RUclips and yours is by far the most comprehensive. Nonetheless, I still have one burning question that no one has addressed, probably because such a feature doesn't exist on this timepiece. When the T-Touch connects to the phone, does the time on the watch refresh itself from the phone like an Oceanus will or in the same way an atomic watch will refresh itself overnight with a radio signal?????? Or, if there's no auto refresh, does the time on the T-Touch drift as any quartz would?? I am VERY interested in purchasing this watch if it has such a feature. Thanks.
Thank you very much Luigi, sorry for the delayed response. The app updates the time, and it stays updated as long as it’s connected to the phone, I believe. May drift, but you can update at any time.
You can choose if you want the phone to sync the clock to your phone or not. By default it will sync to the phone when you do the app setup.
Vibration to know turbulent quality's assurance warranty shelf life for it's revolution paradigm
Great video,just a quick question does this watch support hourly chime or a beep ..many thanks
Question: Does the second hand tick loudly? ie if you put the watch up against your ear, could you hear the ticking? I'm interested in this watch, but am one of the weirdos who wear watches to sleep.
I wear watches to sleep too, usually an Apple Watch so the silent alarm helps wake me up but not my wife. Never heard the ticking, but my hearing isn't the best. Never hurts to write Tissot a note about it.
@@DougFNJ The sound of the clock can be heard if you put the watch on your ear and stick it well
yes i head it
Not on the screen the icon's one's when appearing in here's
Just got this watch and having trouble connecting via Bluetooth between watch and IPhone. It connects but drops the connection quickly. Solution please? Thanks.
Have you updated all firmware on Watch and phone? Try to completely unpair and re pair, and if none of that works, give Tissot support a call, that should be able to help.
good review, thanks. Nice watch!
Thank you JJ, I appreciate you watching and taking time to comment. Be safe, healthy, and enjoy your holidays!
is this watch available also in black Titanium with a black Titanium bracelet?
There are 2 black titanium versions, 1 with white highlights, the other with orange highlights. Unfortunately, neither have the bracelet. The silicon straps are very comfortable though.
Great review! I would like to know how long it takes (under full sun light) to fill a single bar in the battery power indicator. Mine, after using a single bar was left all day under the sun and the bar didn’t fill up (notifications off and eco mode on). I would like to know if its normal. Thanks in advance👍
Anyone can help?
Solar on a battery like this can take a week to get full. Thats why I love that they offered a manual charger along with the battery life, huge value over traditional smart watches both ways.
Same with mine. I only show one bar for solar
You forgot to mention the price, or did you
I never mention prices on watches. The video is up forever, prices change over time. Easy to find current pricing through Google, or manufacturer website wherever you are internationally.
Ugh…sounds like another pain in the ass device destined for my junk drawer. Why should I buy this for $1300 vs. an Apple Watch 6 for $600?
Its a niche audience, someone who wants more of a round watch that looks more like a watch and provides notifications and basic smartwatch functions. Definitely not for everyone, I love my Apple Watch
I have had several Tissot watches and really love them. Navigator 3000, T-Touch, T-Touch 2, Expert, Expert 2, Expert Solar. Though last expert 2 lost it's turning bezel and Solar stopped charging after a year or 2. Sadly this latest one hasn't got the raised bezel. As I never had any of them with any scratch at all on the glass. Which I counted to the raised bezel.
I think the long battery ife is a super addition. And most functions I will likely use, except for step/calorie/distance counters. Same like the temperature in the older version. But now at least getting data from phone. Other thing I would like to see is a full titanium version. Not too fond of black, or any other coating as in the end they will always show wear.
Another problem I had with my solar was that during night. To see the time, I had to be lucky that dials were not covering display. And that It was in the correct mode. As I used to see home time or date etc. While during the night I only want a quick, 1 touch to see local time. Any other action would only wake me up.
Thank you for watching and taking time to comment.
I'm not as concerned about the raised bezel with the sapphire crystal, I feel the bezel rounds it down a bit. The long battery is what I believe to be the biggest selling point to this watch, nothing out there touches it unless you go into the Casio G-Shock H1000 but that's digital and resin.
All versions are Titanium, the black and gold versions are Titanium with PVD. I think these had to be titanium, the weight of steel would had made them too heavy for the size.Curous what happened to the solar on your Expert? Did Tissot cover that under warranty? Ive had many Solar G-Shocks....knock wood never had an issue with the battery.
I love that they have the hands move out of the way when you want to read a message, pushing the crown activates the light. I've always like the T-Touch line, this new technology pushes it forward for sure.
I am waiting for Tissot to pick up the Solar. I just love it in the full titanium version. Not sure what's wrong with it. When I place it under direct light. It's battery indicator blinks on the first bar. And that's where it stays. So it might also be a battery problem. But I will see what they find. And then just wait a while to see if they bring out another full titanium version. As this period is also not the best moment to invest in a new watch. I also love the 'blue-ish' carbon look solar cells on my solar. Thanks for your reply and great video.
I just don't want to get a silicon band. Due to bad experience in loosing my Seiko Kinetic.
That said titanium band and black watch doesn't look too bad either. Though I am sure they will bring out other combinations like they usually did.
Titanium with black rubber wrist band. Tissot is by far my fav watch brand. I inherited a beautiful OMEGA constellation but i gave it to my son. I was my dads. He's is walking the streets of glory. Both and son and I have watch fetishes. A safe craze but we can only wear one at a time. The touch crystal is amazing.
Thanks Pedro! The Omega is a beautiful watch to pass down, I'm glad he loves it. Amazing the differences in technology from one to the next. Tissot has really been putting out some great products. I am really looking forward to seeing where they go with these watches.
DEFINITELY a BETA Watch Introduction by Tissot. SHAME on you Tissot for putting a Half Baked product out to market.
I think it's a great first version. It works well, very few bugs, and when bugs have appeared they take care of them quickly. They've released it in phases, and it's done everything its advertised to do. Curious your thoughts on what they did wrong with this?
Great walkthrough. I'm looking at the new North American pre-order notice now for May delivery. Any word on changes or tweaks that have been made since your first (limited) release model? Also, any more feedback on potential hand alignment issues - I see reports here and there which are somewhat concerning at this price.
Thank you, please let me know when you get it, may I ask where you ordered it from? The hand alignment issues happen with all quartz watches. I am OCD and HATE that, the one I reviewed did now have that issue.
@@DougFNJ I did end up buying one through Christine Jewellers here in Canada last Boxing Day. I have not noticed any alignment issues; all hands consistently hit the marks very precisely. The watch time, synced via the watch app on the phone, is always about a second behind the phone's actual time. It would be nice if Tissot could eliminate this slight lag, but I have seen it on other Bluetooth-synced watches like Garmin as well, although Casio does not have this issue on their Bluetooth models. This is a minor quibble, and overall I really like the watch. I have the black one with the bright orange dial markers and second hand, a very appealing color scheme.
I hope you understand the “mahtayo” that you pronounced at the top of the face (METEO) is pronounced “me-tea-o” as in short for meteorological.
Thank you for pointing that out Floyd, I will remember that for the future.
Dear all who are using this watch, please say a couple of words your opinion & experience about this device. Interesting how long the battery is working, every thing about watch
The big thing I really respect about Tissot is this is 100% Swiss made down to the electronics. It's a great watch, and in my opinion, if they could shrink it down a little bit, this could be a mainstream homer for Tissot
Thanks for the review, I got one today as a gift and it's really nice. Got one question though... How do you turn it off? 😅
😂😂
Great video! I have the one with the orange numbers on the bezel, the NBA version. I want to get a 2nd one, which is the titanium version which you are reviewing! But my question is, if I were to get a 2nd one, would it still sync with my phone as simultaneously as when I have my first ttsc watch goto sleep? I will definitely be going to have the 2nd one if this can be done. Cheers!
Thanks Arwin, great choice. I really like that black orange combo. I don't know if you could synch 2 watches to 1 phone simultaneously, you may want to reach out to Tissot on that. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to though.
Brilliant review, received mine today in black and orange, pretty straightforward to set up as your video made it very easy to do this,to be honest, I've not been through all the functions just yet,as I'm charging while writing this,anyway my first impression is that it's a great looking watch,just what I was looking for,great battery life as opposed to others, when I'm finished charging will revert back to your video,again great job.👍
Thank you very much for the feedback and watching Gerald, really happy these videos can be helpful. Enjoy!
Really great review. Thanks a lot. I've owned the anniversary 2003 T-Touch since it came out. It still works great, and the batteries seem to last forever. The screen looks as new now as it did when I took it out of the box. I've been thinking of upgrading to one of these and giving the old one to my son. Since it was the titanium model, it also looks new. Amazing watches from Tissot. Thanks again.
Thanks Scott, happy this review helped. T-Touch has come a long way!!
I like this, but the writing ( Activity, Connected, Timing, Navigation) on the bezel insert make it look like the Chinese knock-offs you see all over the web. Take the words off the button also (even Casio does that). Take those words off and it will be much more aesthetically pleasing.
Thank you for watching and taking time to comment. I don't have a big problem with the writing on the watch, it goes in line with the other T-Touch watches, they all have a distinct look.
The best review I have seen for this product. Good job!
Thank you John, happy these videos help
Can u help w the Bluetooth connection difficulty I’m having? Thanks.
Have you made sure to update the firmware to the most recent version?
So it is technically not a “smart watch”. It is just another “digital “ watch only
It's an analog that works like a digital. I wouldn't minimize this is a "digital" for sure though. It's impressive what they were able to pull off with this watch. The sensors, solar, motors that run the hands as accurate as they have, and now a computer chip in there that allows notifications and the potential future firmware updates. I'm really interested to see where they go with this.
Has retro vibes
Comprehensive review...thanks! I have the T-Touch Solar in titanium and was thinking of this one. Saw it in a store and liked it.
At the time I reviewed it, it was so hard to get due to the limited release by region. You should be able to get it at a discount now.
Great video Doug! ⚡️
Thanks Tommy, I get the feeling this one might be one for you.
Very thorough reviewed Sir, does tissot release their latest version? When this model be available in the Philippines. Thanks
I don't know when it will be sold in the Philippines, but I had gotten this from an authorized Dealer in Switzerland when it first released, it released in USA months later. Check out Chrono24, you may be able to find a good dealer, and a great deal.
This is the best review for this watch! Got my Tissot titanium version with a titanium bracelet today! It is awesome and super classy! The phone/Watch finder is a great and cool feature.
Thank you Laith! Great choice, happy this video helped
@@DougFNJ It absolutely did!
Hi, great review! And what about the battery life? Thanks!
The battery life is the highlight Nicolas, 6 months on a smartwatch is unheard of!!
Do I have to keep turning the spinning knob to make choices, which is really annoying if so, cos then I would have to lift up one side of the watch every time I need to set something, this would be a complete no no in that case
Great review dougFNJ
This review definitely helped me choose the non smart version
They are working on some changes on a future update. I plan to do a follow up video on this. Right now, navigation is primarily done with the crown.
Does the calorie count and step count work without connecting to phone? I don’t want to connect to any phone and looking to turn off all connectivity. Thanks
You may want to look at the simpler T-Touch solar watches. The app puts the calories in there, the watch itself though has sensors on board which do allow you to use it independently of the phone.
Hi, great review! I know that the watch is 47mm wide but what is the distance between the top horn and the bottom horn? Is it around 50mm?
Hi Karim, thanks for watching. It is 47.5mm width and the same for height
@@DougFNJ does it wear as large as it sounds?
What a brilliant instructional review. Well done!
How accurate do you find the step tracker?
Thinking of upgraging to one of these from a Protrek.
Quite like one of the black versions
Thank you Wolfman! I like the black and orange. I’m wondering how to test the accuracy of these step counters in all these watches.
Cool watch. Where is everyone buying them from?
I purchased this from TicWatch in the UK, a number of others have too. At the time I purchased, they had a 10% off coupon. If in USA, they ship DHL Express, it arrives quickly.
@@DougFNJ thanks! Wish they still had a coupon for it too.
I just got mine and your video really helps set it up! Thanks again.
Does it have vibration alarm functionality?
It does. I wish every watch with an alarm came with vibration.
why can't i pair it on my iphone??? how do i set my temperature from C-F? help pls.
I’d say start from scratch on the watch, delete and redownload the app, restart the phone, that should get you connected. If not, definitely reach out to Tissot to troubleshoot. Once set up, you could change the C to F in settings.
Hi, great video! What do you think about tissot connected value for money? There are a lot of cheaper alternative, I love this watch but i think it's quite expensive. And what about the reliability? tissot touch expert have some problems.. thanks a lot
Thanks for watching Luigi, I think you get great value for the money. The titanium material, and the amount of technology they squeezed into this watch is extremely impressive designing and engineering. Reliability, jury is of course out, Ive only had it for days, so far it works fine, they do have a 2 year warranty so its covered if there are issues.
Having trouble connecting Bluetooth It sometimes connects but doesn’t stay connected.
If you are in the latest firmware and still having issues, sometimes unpairing and re-pairing helps. If that still doesn’t work, I’d reach out to Tissot support. They should be able to help.
Great review as always. I wanna see you review the best value for money, swiss made smart watch, the Frederique Constant Vitality, which has the heart rate sensor.
Thank you so much Arch! Is that a WearOS watch?
Does the touch work if your hands are wet? (or the screen itself is wet - for example when swimming). Thanks!
I don’t believe it would work underwater, but wet hands shouldn’t matter
@@DougFNJ yeah that's I meant, not underwater :) thank you!
Having a hard time connecting to android phone. Has anyone figured out?
awesome review. the size comparison with the others really gave me a good insight. thank you
Thank you, really happy these videos can be helpful.
If I’m out I’m a postie for like 2-4 hours a day, no charge required?
That is the great thing about this watch, no charge required. I would always top it off, but 6 month power reserve.
this watch is too expensive for me, but its a nice watch ... maybe someday ill get one ..i hope
They are in America now and most countries, not as rare as when they first released. Never be afraid to ask for a lower price.
Hi, do you know by change when will be on MEX and the price?. Tks.
I believe it should arrive in Summer. Unsure of how they will price it when it releases in North America
Can this vibrate for notifications or calls without sound? Also, is there a way to customize vibrations?
Yes and Yes.
I prefer all my devices vibrate and not use sound.
Vibration choices are short, long, and double
I got the new Garmin solar instinct selling it can only do two weeks then charge, rubbish but as far as gps tracking etc was very good.
I am a postie so I spend each day 4-5 hours out stil no go!
Battery????
I really think the battery is going to be the biggest seller on this watch. They will be releasing a firmware update at some point that will have GPS capabilities to work with your phones GPS
@@DougFNJ I do believe the heart rate should be push to show not have to check it each min or so as it drains battery.
So too the gps if you want to use it then make gps on if not in use say after 5min, turn it off.
I was in the sun as a postie for like 2-5 hours a day yes the rate of power went up like 2-5 days each day but if on the weekends I didn’t use it, it dropped big time as in how much days of power I had left to use.
In the end I was forced to remove most smarts in order to have power to use the watch.
For me I’m not paying $699 for a solar watch that a 1980s solar watch can do minus the smarts can do as I’m forced to take then all off!
Garmin you failed due to a poorly designed power management system that is either on or off.
GPS yet? Battery I had Garmin only two weeks bs well?
I believe GPS is coming soon, I am curious the toll that will take on the battery. Im wondering if that's why they are taking as long as they are to release it.
Apparently the watch doesn’t display your next schedule on your calendar or does it? Same for the weather: would it display weather information taken from the phone’s weather app?
The weather is shown using the sensors with Barometer and temperature. The calendar should show if it shows on the Home Screen notifications.
@@DougFNJ I regret that the phone’s weather info cannot be displayed in addition of the local measures of the watch itself. You mention on your review that the temperature sensor of the watch nee the watch to be taken out for some minutes to show the actual temperature… and if you want to know the temperature outside while being in your house then the watch sensor is not the best source of information. I see watch and phone (internet weather service actually) as being complementary. Sad it did not appeared that way to Tissot.
Thanks for a decent reciew 👌🏼
Thank you for watching and taking time to comment, I appreciate it, Happy Holidays :)
