This video is all about value. Not only do you get two watch reviews (we’re covering Tissot’s dressy Everytime Swissmatic as well as the sportier V8 Swissmatic), but both watches represent a solid value proposition.

Accuracy used to be a big deal in watchmaking. There were competitions to test the accuracy of wristwatches. There were complications - additional functions - and engineering improvements designed to assist the watch in keeping true time.

The name of this watch gives much away about its romantic, dare we even say, poetic roots. Seiko do not usually name their watches. This makes them very difficult to tell your friends about.
