Just went to Tebrau Jusco, Moments to buy my new watch..
After wearing my G-shock since primary 6 until just now, i finally made a big step ahead to change my G-shock to Tissot..
In case you do not know what brand Tissot is, you can click here to read a bit
Browse their official website here.
This is an automatic watch.. Means no need battery, self-winding.. just wear it then it will work.. If you din wear it, then the watch will work unitl max 42 hours.
This is a sapphire crystal watch.. What the hell is that?
“Sapphire crystal is a very hard transparent material commonly used for “scratch-proof” watch glasses.
Made by crystallizing aluminum oxide at very high temperatures, it is chemically the same as natural sapphire and ruby, but without the small amounts of other elements such as iron, titanium or chromium that give the gemstones their colors. Sapphire (whether natural or synthetic) is one of the hardest substances, measuring 9 on the Mohs scale, a system for rating the relative scratch hardness of materials. (Diamond measures 10, the highest rating, and the hardest steels are 8).
Recently some high-end cellphones and PDA models have screens of sapphire crystal[1].
Synthetic sapphire is difficult, but not impossible, to scratch. In particular both diamonds and man-made materials that incorporate silicon carbide are harder than sapphire.”
But then when u heard automatic, no need battery then u think forever no need service la? ur head lo… need to go for service d.. the sad story is.. every time u service, it will cost RM300- Rm400!! Shit man, can buy another low end watch.. hehe..
