Welcome to our little guide to "Tips for Christmas gifts and more." We are currently in our WOW store in Optima, Košice, where my colleagues have prepared tips for the most beautiful Christmas gifts. The first video will focus on watches in the price range up to €500.
Certina DS Action
C032.251.11.041.00
First, we will start with the Certina DS Action women's model with a 34 mm case diameter, a beautiful dark blue dial, and a date display at the 6 o'clock position. It is highly water-resistant up to 300 m, mainly thanks to its screw-down crown, classic quartz movement, and relatively thin case profile. The watch is designed for sporty women who like to be active and want to use their watch for a wide range of activities.

Certina DS 8
C033.257.36.118.00
The second model on the list is the Certina DS 8. It has a 32 mm case diameter, a beautiful mother-of-pearl and unique dial with moon phases at the 6 o'clock position. It is water resistant to 100 m, has a sapphire crystal and a battery-powered movement. The rose gold case has a PVD coating. It is not gold, it just looks like gold. We recommend this watch for elegant ladies with a sense of design.

Tissot T-Classic
T063.639.16.057.00
From women's models, we move on to the third men's model, this time from sister brand Tissot – also Swiss. The Tissot T-Classic model has a case diameter of 42 mm, with a steel case housing a battery-powered movement. Black dial, black calfskin strap, and a folding clasp. These watches are very elegant, but their 42 mm diameter makes them more suitable for everyday wear than purely as a watch to wear with a suit. This is because a true "dress watch" is more likely to be 36-39 mm. At the 6 o'clock position, there is a small seconds hand and a second time zone function.

Tissot Sport Special Alpina
T123.610.16.057.00
The fourth model on our list is a special Alpina model, with which Tissot pays tribute to the car manufacturer Alpina. You will find a reference to this on the tip of the second hand, where the logo is located. The orange and blue colors give this watch a sporty elegance. The steel case has a diameter of 45 mm. Another interesting feature of this watch is that if you own an Alpina car, you will find a special place in it where you can easily unscrew the case and place it in your car. It is clear from the above that the watch is designed for lovers of cars and interesting technical devices.

Tissot Sport Seastar 1000
T120.417.11.041.01
The last model on our list is the sporty Tissot Seastar 1000, one of Tissot's most popular watches today. It features a battery-powered movement inside, sapphire crystal on the surface, extreme water resistance up to 300 m, screw-down buttons, screw-down crown, unidirectional rotating bezel, and an interesting dial with a gradient that transitions from dark blue to light blue. In our opinion, these watches are very interesting. Designed for a variety of sports activities, they can also be worn with a suit or jacket.

Tissot T-Sport Gentleman Silicium
T120.417.11.041.01
We have one more tip for you, the last one, a bonus tip. These watches are a little more expensive, but you will see for yourself that they are worth it. This is the Tissot Gentleman Silicium model. As some of you may have guessed from the name, this is a model with an automatic movement. It is the only model with an automatic movement on our list. Silicium is silicon, which is found in the oscillator, allowing the watch to be extremely accurate. The oscillator typically uses a hairspring made of Nivarox, a metal material that reacts mainly to temperature differences. When it is warm outside, the hairspring lengthens, slowing down the oscillator, while in winter, the hairspring may shorten, speeding up the oscillator – this affects the delay or advance.
Inside is a Powermatic 80 movement with an 80-hour power reserve. This means that when you wind them up and take them off your wrist, they will run for 80 hours when fully wound. Standard automatic movements have a reserve of approximately 40-42 hours. Fantastic movement endurance, beautifully crafted watches, an absolutely timeless dial and a design with delicate, almost luminous rays on the dial - they refract the light beautifully, you have to see it in person. The case diameter is 40 mm. Sapphire crystal is used on the dial and also on the back. Tissot wants to show off its movements. We would recommend this watch either to a man who really knows what he wants and is not concerned with current trends, or to someone who likes small technical marvels – this watch will never disappoint.
