Description
Against Nature: A ReboursResisting the traditional model of nineteenth century fiction, Joris Karl Huysman produced in 1884 a novel unlike any other of his time. Against Nature is the story of Des Esseintes, an aesthete who attempts to escape Paris and, along with it, the vulgarity of modern life. As Des Esseintes hides away in his museum of high taste, Huysman offers the reader a treasury of cultural delights and anticipates many aspects of twentieth century modernism.

Simple, elegant, versatile
Premium quality at a reasonable price. Simple and elegant. I have yet to wear this watch without receiving multiple compliments, even in sweatpants on my way to the gym. I took it to a high-end jewelry store to have some links removed, the master jeweler there immediately commented on the quality of the movement and what an underrated watch Tissot makes. (Mind you, he had a table full of Rolexes, AP's and Pateks that he was working on) Very comfortable to wear, heavy enough to feel it on your wrist and light enough where it doesnt not become cumbersome.

Best Swiss auto at this price that isn't a microbrand.
Well built Swiss made piece. Date turns over right at 00:00. Most accurate Swiss auto at this price. Bracelet is decent. Not a fan of butterfly clasps but I can't be picky at this price. Dial is amazing, especially in the sun. Perfect fit for my 7.25 inch wrist.

Tissot Gentleman checks the boxes!
For the price point the Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium checked all the boxes. It is Swiss, 40 mm(good size for average to large wrist), allows for multiple wrist straps/bands and sapphire crystal... one thing to note is the dial color is not grey but anthracite so it is closer to black. However I knew this from Tissot website and this is why I purchased it. I switched out the metal bracelet/band(which I recommend buying) with a brown band....looks great so would a grey. The vendor was reliable and I recommend the watch for purchase. Be careful when selecting dial color. The blue and anthracite are close to black. There is a silver.
