After years of casual interest, I recently took the plunge and purchased a vintage Tissot RockWatch for myself. link It's small. It's quirky. It's utterly charming. It cost $200. And it's link helped me connect and dig deeper into link a part of Swiss watchmaking history that's generally ignored. This is the story of the Tissot RockWatch, a little stone watch with a larger-than-life personality.

What we do link know is that the original collector sold his one-off watch to another collector about 15 years ago and now the second collector has consigned the watch to Phillips. It's coming up in the link Geneva Watch Auction XIII. The watch carries an estimate of 10900 to 16300 and that's a decent value proposition for a minute repeater let alone one cased by Hagmann with movement tech supplied link by Journe.
