Notes

The Tissot Mediostat is one of these rare and hard to find watches with an interesting flyback seconds hand similar to that of the Rolex Zerograph. Housed in a 33 mm anti-magnetic screwback case, this example features a very rare two-tone grey-black dial that has aged wonderfully, giving this little timepiece an extremely attractive overall look.
