Tissot Watches Expected to be Huge Hit This Christmas

DUDLEY, England, Oct. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- The Watch Hut is preparing itself for an increase in sales across all its watch brands in the coming months, based on the upturn that occurred around this time last year.

As one of the website's bestselling brands last Christmas and throughout the year, Tissot is once again expected to move more units in 2010 and feature in the stockings of many ladies and gents come December 25th.

New Tissot watches predicted to become bestselling gifts include this year's Tissot Sailing-Touch models, headed by black rubber band model T056.420.27.051.00. The new spin on the nautical family combines Tissot's patented T-Touch technology with specialist features including regatta, chronograph and weather histogram.

Other Tissot timepieces sure to feature in Santa's sleigh include Tissot T-Touch II watches - slightly altered variations on the first generation T-Touches - plus old and new models from the ever-popular PRC200 collection. As ever, diamond-encrusted ladies watches are a perfect gift for that special lady who makes life sparkle.

Tissot is an iconic watch brand, embodying over 150 years of Swiss watch making craftsmanship. The key to its success is in its respect for the traditions of the craft coupled with the desire to innovate, resulting in watches that meet three main criteria: precision, performance and power.
