Barry,

The tissot works on vibration when you touch the point of the watch face
that the hand is indicating.  To tell the time, press the button on the side
of the watch then run the finger around the face of the watch clockwise.
When you feel the constant vibration this indicates the hour.  continue and
you will feel an intermittant vibration which indicates the minutes.  The
outside of the dial is marked as a normal tactile watch with a bar at the 12
3 6 and 9 numerals and a raised dot at the five minute intervals.  To read
the time of the alarm press the button and run the finger anticlockwise
around the watch face.  Time of the alarm is indicated as per the long and
intermittant vibrations.  Both the clock time and the alarm time are set
using touch on the watch face and the alarm can be turned on and off using
touch as well.

hth,

Mark Threadgold
