TweetEmailSwiss watchmaker Tissot recently announced a new member of their Tactile line:the Navigator 3000. It has appeared as a blurry picture next to a "coming soon" teaseron their site for quite some time, but now the picture is finally clear, and somespecs and pictures have been published.Before I get into the details of the Navigator, I'd like to mention a few thingsabout Tissot Tactile watches in general. First of all, I happen to be wearing aT-Touch on on my wrist right now (detailed review forthcoming), and I love it. TheTactile line of watches allows you to navigate by tapping the sapphire crystal indifferent locations rather than pressing a mode button over and over. They are technicallyimpressive, classy watches, and I think the Navigator 3000 is a great addition.Features of the Navigator 3000 include:Tactile crystal to navigate through five modes and multiple time zones.World time (150 countries or cities).Countdown timer.Stopwatch.Two programmable alarms and five alarm melodies.Multiple date formats.Backlight to illuminate the LCD.The target market for this watch is obviously the traveling business executive,but I'd argue it packs a little something for everyone. It will be available infour different styles (the one pictured here is my favorite), and will probablygo for between $400 and $600, though don't hold anyone to that number. Stay tunedfor a detailed review as soon as I can get my hands on one.Tissot's site could be easier to navigate, so I've taken the liberty of providingsome links here:TheNavigator Product Page.QuickSpecs.Allfour of the Navigator 3000 choices.Fullline of Tactile watches.Related Articles:Review of the Tissot T-Navigator 3000

Swatch Group Record Half-YearSaturday, September 22nd, 2007  If the Swiss watch industry witnessed a surge in its exports from the beginning of January to the extremity of June (+15.5% to 7.2 billion francs), the Swatch party did even better with an increase in yield change of 16.7% to 2.74 billion! Despite problems of production capacity which it has faced for some time, the Swatch Group posted a account first half-year in 2007 with two-digit increases in turnover (+16.7% to 2.74 billion francs), operating profit (+27.1% to 511 million) and net profit (+39.4% to 460 million). The engine of aggrandizement par excellence was the key sector of watches and jewellery, which includes 18 brands covering all expenditure categories. It further demonstrated its significance to the Biel based group with sales well above the two billion franc mark (2.11 billion, +20.0%) and an operating profit of 353 million (+20.9%). Once again the best performance was recorded by the luxury sector (Breguet, Blancpain and Omega), however other price categories, headed by Longines and Tissot, also registered results of the highest quality, as did the Swatch brand, which posted growth in double figures. The group?s success is attributable to all geographical regions, even though Asia, America and Europe are comfortably ahead of the field. The only downside is Japan, where business remained enduring due to the hard economic situation and the weakness of the yen. The opening of the N. G. Hayek Center in Tokyo at the end of May gave a new boost to this market however. The production of watches, movements and components, another important sector, recorded even better results: turnover up by 23.7% to 857 million francs and operating profit up by 87.7% to 122 million. Deliveries to group companies rose to 523 million (+32%) and those to third parties totalled 334 million (+12%). These record results prove that the group has managed to overcome certain problems of production capacity even though, as the group itself acknowledges, ?some companies continue to face delays in delivery at particular stages of production, singularly in terms of movements, hands and dials?. latest - and for once least - the electronic systems segment stalled during the first half of 2007, with sales up by a modest 2.7% to 306 million and an operating profit down by -16.1% to 47 million. The fault lies with mobile phones and the current trend towards ever cheaper models. Based on these results, its solid portfolio of brands and its excellent position on the market, supported by a robust industrial fabric, the Swatch Group expressed keen optimism with regard to the rest of the year and has very ambitious expectations, not least because turnover registered in July and first estimates for August point to rates of growth on a par with the first half-year. The chances of another record year therefore look very good indeed! | Posted in Articles, News, Swatch, jewelry finance, swatch group | | Comments Off pay per click advertising
