Strange that a real company with history would make something like that and for $300

The font style reminds me of Squale.

Not related to Tissot, but the Tissot font looks almost identical to the vintage Tissot logo.

It's a bit slimy to be sure, but Rolly != Rolex. And with no Rolex logo on the dial, it's not a fake ;)

Maybe worth buying just to post photos in the MKII WUS forum.

At $299 seems like a good beater to constantly remind you of the time you sold the 1675 and 16750 you'll never get back. :crybaby:

Hmmmm, I find it a bit dubious...

Tissot belongs to the Swatch group, so does ETA. And yet this thing has a Sellita movement ?

And what's the point of a 24H bezel if there is no 24H hand ? Surely a serious brand would not make a mistake like that... Or call it Rolly !

Might not be all bad if it actually had a GMT hand to go with that bezel. That alone is stupid.
