Tissot New 40mm Auto SeaStar 1000

[@alanrogers6885]

Great , my Seastar 2000 I bought 2 weeks ago, I must say in 14 days my watch is running less that 1-spd, 11 seconds lost over 14 days is better than cosc specs fantastic I cannot believe how accurate that watch is.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Thanks impressive Alan

[@chrisboyce4222]

Thank you so much for the awesome review, going to head in today to purchase the watch after watching your in-depth review:)

[@ClickSpringReview]

Thanks Chris let me know what you think of it 👍🏻

[@Robert-vw3od]

The only problem with this is the SEASTAR font looks an early 90s sci-fi film logo font

[@ClickSpringReview]

LOL it true Robert

[@subzero9460]

Nothing to get excited about but it’s a competent watch at a great price however reading between the lines would choose the quartz version

[@ClickSpringReview]

I like the watch but the only downside for me as a watchmaker is the escape wheel and pallet fork

[@Mile-long-list]

Great video as always ! That dial is awesome

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yeah I do agree with you there

[@robertlock6041]

Not bad Barry, not bad at all...

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yeah for the money it’s a pretty cool watch Bob

[@robertlock6041]

@@ClickSpringReview I'm just a bit concerned by the escapement. It sounds like a maintenance nightmare designed for ease of manufacturing and low cost.

[@ClickSpringReview]

@@robertlock6041check this video out think it’s about 4 mins in. It’s a great watch but from a watchmaker perspective though kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoeuoI2Vd8mXba8si=hDiuPN3zUl9HHS2r

[@robertlock6041]

@@ClickSpringReview Wow! I didn't know that it was plastic: I'm glad that I bought a Muhle (and a Sinn) and not this. I assume that the plastic escapement parts are replaced in a service. This is always assuming a supply of parts, that is! I shall watch Kalle again! Thanks for this Barry, LG Bob 🍻

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yeah they would be but unfortunately we don’t have access to them. But I dare say it could be replace with a metal escapement but that would add around £100 to the price if the service

[@stratovariusforever1724]

Is the movement serviceable?

[@ClickSpringReview]

Yes I can service it

[@phil291254]

And Tissot do powermatic Service at fixed price - around £160/70 Sterling and guarantee - plenty of international branches….

[@ClickSpringReview]

@@phil291254 I believe your right , £170 is very cheap, Many of the big brands simply replace the movement as its cheaper than servicing one

[@danijelkruselj1855]

My nect purchase eill be Tissot. I never cinsidered about Tissot but after they have released new Seastar 1000 I said Iust have it.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Fingers crossed you get

[@RandomWatchesVideo]

Never had an experience with black watch. How’s the black coating usually holding up for this type of finishing?

[@ClickSpringReview]

This was a review watch so I can't say with this one but my black Sinn watches one 11 years is mint and just today I've picked up a Fortis black model which is 23 years and that one also looks like new

[@nedflanders3769]

Wow that is one sharp looking watch. I really like it. That blacked out look is chef’s kiss.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Plus its an affordable model win win

[@tschoy9388]

I brought this Seastar 1000 40 mm 3 weeks ago. Exactly this Blue/Black. I love this watch 2 months ago, and I go to the AD but no stock. Ordered and wait for 2 weeks and put on hand 3 weeks ago. Everything perfect except the 12 O clock triangular mark not lump. But I am not dive, so, a small problem only. Thanks.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Hi sir the pip on the watch I had was lumed

[@tschoy9388]

@@ClickSpringReview No, I mean the triangular mark on the Bezel, your are not lump too as in the video.

[@ClickSpringReview]

The triangle isn’t lumed you are correct sir but the pip in the center of it is sir 👍🏻

[@tschoy9388]

@@ClickSpringReview Oh yes, I have double check it. The lump is weak, I have to shine it be a light tube for a while, it come with lump. Thank you.

[@ClickSpringReview]

Anytime Sir

[@RandallSlick]

Nice looking watch. Dark Manta x Orient Raven vibes, but with a thoughtful strap. Perhaps Tissot are learning from the Chinese/allowing their Chinese factories freer reign on the design. Either way all good and can't wait to see them for sale at half the RRP soon. If only they'd plough into their amazing back catalogue then Tissot would be a force to be reckoned with. But, Swatch politics. Nice, succinct review as always.

[@ClickSpringReview]

I dare your right about the RRP as there always deal to be had with Tissot

[@trucmachin2840]

Question for the experts: Do the black cases suffer more from everyday knocks than the ‘raw’ ones? I'm assuming that the black is an overcoat that could come off if scratched, or is the whole case (inside) really black?

[@ClickSpringReview]

It's only a coating so can be scratched off, I find Breitling to have one of the easiest wear off and Sinn the hardest. Ive seen one or two watches look great when this happens as it give the watch real character

[@Hectorsdad]

Cracking review. Mrs HD thinks the dial looks a little like bark and reminds her of Grand Seiko. It’s a little busy for me with a lot going on in terms of finishing. Strap looks good and works well.

[@ClickSpringReview]

I cant see were she is going from with that 🤔👍🏻

[@SamuraiJackson]

I'm surprised no one has commented on the fact that you strategically filmed this around 10:10 so you and Bob both had watches displaying the perfect time for your wrist check. Brilliant planning and execution.

[@ClickSpringReview]

That was all down to Bob I had nothing to do with that ;)

[@dadmodswatches]

I would prefer this one over my Seastar 2000m

[@ClickSpringReview]

I need to review a 2000 at a later date 👍🏻

[@tschoy9388]

I compared them side by side, Seastar 2000 is a way too big on my wrist.

[@ClickSpringReview]

I understand that maybe I’ll do a side by side comparison at some point

[@mandipbhogal5232]

it's mineral

[@ClickSpringReview]

Cheers 👍🏻

[@Pitsenberg]

Mineral what? Glass?

[@ClickSpringReview]

sapphire

[@richardbonanno7236]

Nice watch

[@ClickSpringReview]

It is a good looking model the blue and black are just 😎

[@dustinr16]

I have been waiting for a 40mm Seastar automatic as the 43mm are just too big, but they seriously dropped the ball here. The cheap mineral insert is horrible. I would have bought one if it had the nice engraved ceramic bezel insert like the 43mm models.

[@ClickSpringReview]

I still think it looks great it’s just the movement for as a watchmaker could be improved

[@brolyvi1211]

Same here, I wish it is ceremic bezel too😢

[@ClickSpringReview]

@@brolyvi1211 So that would stop you from buying the watch ? At this price point what offer black watch would you go for Sir ?

[@rossdev]

@@ClickSpringReviewI think this is a fabulous looking watch and great review btw. At this price point there is a lot of competition from well respected microbrands. Just a few examples, Wise Adamascus GMT ($720), Henry Archer Akva (about €520 with their discount code), Nodus Sector Deep ($600) would be my choice of alternatives! I’ve owned quite a few Tissot watches over the years (T Touch series and Moto gp) and have a soft spot for the brand.

[@ClickSpringReview]

@@rossdev Never heard of Wise, Archer and Nodus are brands I see of Facebook, After looking at all 3 I'd go with the Wise , Ps I had the first Gen T Touch back in around 2000 ish

[@georgejgenti]

The worst background for watch presentation I ever seen !!!

[@ClickSpringReview]

😂😂😂😂

[@maxiringo2802]

I really like the blue dial and case size 40-mm, but alas Tissot so cheap by not equipping it with butterfly/deployment clasp. That pin buckle just looks so chirpy cheap one 😢

[@ClickSpringReview]

I don't mind the buckle Max as butterfly clasp unless done wight suit dress watches more and clasps at this price point aren't that good

[@threethrushes]

Six lines of text on the dial? I want a watch, not an undergraduate essay.

[@ClickSpringReview]

I dont mine it myself but I understand were your coming from

[@Pitsenberg]

I see 5 on the dial
