Timekeeping

Plenty of watches are available for the adventure people.
But out of all the Tissot T-Touch series combines features, style and intrinsic value in a perfect way. The compass functionality is lovely, and all other functions like altimeter, thermometer, chronometer and so are so easily accessible, thanks to the touch screen. Overall, a rugged and useful timepiece.
