yes, they are not authorized dealers... that's quite common in this world of overpriced authorized dealer network Smilie

you're buying a grey market watch for $150. If you're worried about a warranty, you're doing it wrong.

Nice looking watch. Unfortunately, not an automatic watch. Will pass for me.

For starters: 21mm lug width is unfortunate. Not a standard width for replacing the band.
The crown is a dead giveaway that this is a quartz movement. 43mm case size is an odd size as well as the lug width. Also, has been on the market since 2015. Seems like Ashford is trying to sell OLD stock on behalf of Tissot. Tissot is almost as bad as Glycine/Invicta these days.

Ashford may in fact be authorized, despite what the Tissot site, and the interwebs say.

Ashford is in fact an authorized dealer for at least some watches. On the product page it states "Authorized Dealer", and I have found this to be true in another case.

I purchased a Hamilton broadway chrono (another slick deal) a while back from Ashford that was too fast.

Normally, I would return the watch. But, it was out of stock, so I contacted the swatch repair center in Miami to find out if warranty was valid. It was and the watch was repaired with no charges.

Not sure the point here. I am sure that the effort and shipping associated with a warranty claim on a $150 watch makes no sense. And frankly if you are worried about awarranty on a quartz watch, you shouldn't buy it.

Buying from a company like Ashford or Joma doesn't make a watch any less real. It doesn't make it look, feel or perform any different. And if you cared that much about the warranty or papers, then by all means spend 3x on this watch. Or you could just buy 3 and forget about it.

Basically that. You can buy 3 at this price. I do watch repair. I find people making a big deal about warranties. Which is fine, especially at a much higher price. But, something simple like a hand coming loose, I can fix in 2 minutes. But, they won't let me touch it because it may "void the warranty." On a $150 watch? I blame the brands though. I had Hamilton tell me I "wasn't authorized" to even change a battery in their watches when I inquired about a replacement crystal for a watch. Ridiculous.

I think it's a very nice watch.
You spend a lot of energy crapping on deals saying watches are ugly. Your opinion isn't the only one that matters.
