Tissot T touch expert t013.420.44.202.00
As a fanatic in hand watches i used to collect a lot of them. Passing by Casio Calvin Klein Victorinox Longines Guess etc...
3 years ago i got lucky of having the old T touch on my birthday a gift given me by my sister... Although it was (and still a great watch) it had one big downside... You can never use it under water which is funny for a 30 m dive watch that you can't even shower with!
The specs were enough by then. 2 months ago i got the Tissot T touch expert just for the fact that they resolved the water resistance issue its appearance was attractive tried it in camping biking scuba diving. For your long trips you will be able to enjoy the watch for the following facts:
1-I can guaranty you that the Azimuth is of a lot of help you wouldn't need to keep track of where the bezels were from before at the beginning of your trip.
2-You will be able to determine the real altitude after that they were able to fix some filters between the pressure and the altitude.
3-The Barometer is improved as for new relative and absolute pressure for weather were added to the watch.
4-The LCD backlight is very useful at night (which wasn't yet added to the old Tissot).
5-You can keep track of 2 timings in your travels keeping the time from back home and leaving the other option to your new location.
6-It also has a new feature which will allow you to keep track of 2 alarms instead of adjusting your usual daily alarm you'll be able to add a new one for your non permanent use.
7-The chronograph has been updated too by adding the counter-count (backward).
8-The thermometer has a small downside is that you will have to take off the watch for 10 min to get the real temperature.
As you can see its a great product the watch is perfectly sized for its use... Chunky but fit and relevant to its usage it's a matter of taste.
You will be very happy of buying this watch.

Great watch!
Great watch with many great features. I love the size of the digital layout and the metal band is durable. To resize the band push out the pins from the side that looks like screws.
Pros: Accurate good looking multiple alarms timer and stop-watch.
Cons: Metal band latch sometimes deforms making it hard to latch. You have to bend it a certain way to make it work. The analog hands sometimes get out of sync with the digital time. You can fix that easily but annoying sometimes. Lastly at night you can't use the watch features. There is a light but it occupies a button used for setting alarms and such. So if you are setting your alarm you can't see the display. Timex has a night feature that once enabled turns the light on with every button press. My former watch had it and it was a very handy feature.
Great for the price.

It's more than I thought!
At first it came in a ripped original GUCCI box so I was a little worried but the product itself is great!
I've accidentally banged the watch on steel doors and on the walls but there has been no visible nor functional damage so far... it's very well made I guess. Can wear it on formal occasions as well as on normal days. I love it!
