Tissot 2160-98002

[simone]

Ciao a tutti! I'm back....
Yesterday i found this pretty Tissot in a vintage market and for only 20 euro I buy it!Unfortunately has a crack on the glass but the watch works fine....
The strap is marked by tissot 2160-98002
It's a lady watch but i think that i'll wear it... (de gustibus....)
It's very similiar to casiotron and the module is the same...and date 1976 (i suppose)
Here some pics.....

I hope to find a new glass....!!

[Kasper]

what is the diameter and the thickness of that glass?

[simone]

diameter: 1,5 cm
thickness: it's hard to measure ....maybe 3 mm

[Kasper]

most glasses are between 1 and 1.5 mm thick.

[simone]

Mmmmm probably I wrong....maybe 1,5 mm
Here the same version made by Casio in gold tone version....the glass is the same....

i see, yes. if you want new glass, you have to be sure you can get it out of the case.
i have mineral glass here..1.5 mm thick, but you have to get the glass out of the case yourself and sent the case + the glass pieces (if broke) to me and then
i can try to cut some for you.

One week and the watch will be ready....with a new mineral glass....

[simone]

it's a pity he didn't cleaned or sanded the case a bit before placing the new glass.
