The Sistem51 is really misunderstood. Yes it is not realistically serviceable, but it was never designed to be. If you want a "repairable" automatic at this price point, you're usually dealing with near-disposable Seiko movements that make more time and financial sense to replace than actually repair.
This is purely my opinion but I would not get this watch. This watch is using the C15.111 movement and from what I've researched, it is basically Swatch's Sistem 51 movement, which isn't serviceable. So once the watch stops moving it's a toss-out type of a watch. Free-sprung movement is nice but the fact that the movement is made cheaply and also that it technically only has 51 parts is a bit scary. The power reserve is nice I will say which is over 72 hours.
I'm going to be a bit pedantic here, but your phrasing makes it sound like "it breaks and you're out of luck."

The Swissmatic (C15.111) watches can be repaired - and apparently they're repaired quite rapidly all things considered - but that "repair" simply means replacing the movement with a "refurbished" movement and your "old" movement gets sent out to be refurbed somehow.

Personally, I'm a big fan of Swiss watches. But then again, I find that I wear my Apple Watch more than I ever wore any of my other mechanical/quartz watches (not all Swiss...)

But if I was in the market for an inexpensive automatic Swiss watch, for $163, I'd certainly consider this one. It offers quite a bit for the price (which is normally in the $300-$400 range - although that seems... overpriced.) However, if I was looking for an heirloom-type of watch, well, ok, this wouldn't be it.

Can't find this model on tissot web site — it's probably discontinued.

I have tissot watch with the same movement. It is accurate and all I care about.
This particular watch looks very cheap though

Really? I've seen CK watches with an ETA mvmt on here for under $100 (although it's been a while since i've seen that deal). Yes you get the Tissot name on here over CK, but this shouldn't cost this much with a non-serviceable mvmt.

Edit:

You're better off spending your money on these Swiss watches (yes some of them are a bit more expensive):

Tissot will technically "service" the movement (ie throw it out and install a new one) for $130. Whether this is or is not economical is up to the owner, but you don't necessarily have to throw away the watch if something goes wrong with the movement.

My intent was to dispel the notion that the Sistem51 is somehow inherently "bad". Yes, movements like Seiko's NH35 have a bigger following and a lot of people tinker with it, but for the average person, it's simply more economical to swap out either movement when it breaks or falls way outside spec. In that sense, I would argue both are very much disposable.

I agree that this is a good watch for this price, and I also agree that this isn't what most people would describe as worthy of being purchased with the intention of passing down to the next generations.

Keep in mind this watch is cheaper than just the service on most automatics. I see this as a great beater watch, stocking stuffer, party door-prize watch, etc. You can't beat it for the price.
