This is just great. I wonder, though, whether they are the same ones which we have come to know and to love. I looked on the site once, and found a vibrating watch that told all sorts of things. Such as the times the tides ebbed and flowed, ETC. I wondered when I saw those, whether they would be as blind friendly as the original ones about which we spoke.----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Hyde-Dryden" <csdryden@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi,Yes, these are totally awesome watches. The one you're talking about is theTissot Silen-T. They are actually still in manufacture and cost £395.00. Check any of the high end jewellers.

Its batteries last too. I can't say too manyfine things about the tissot watches. Though they are no longer made, and must be gotten second hand. As I got mine. You might want to look at the blind buy sell trade lists for one. That is where I got mine. I assureyou, if you do get one you won't be sorry, and won't ever want to let it go.----- Original Message ----- From: "Richard King" <rking689@xxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, November 13, 2013 7:18 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: braille or tactile watchesI've experienced some of these watches from RNIB and, to be honest, wouldn't want to be seen dead in most! I was always particular about how I'd accessorize,never had a lot of luxuries but watches have always been a big thing for me in my youth, as would most young men, so thankfully I heard about the tactile watches from Tissot. Not cheap at around £300 and I even think that they've stopped production of these? A real shame if so, as they're so James Bond the way that the glass will pulsate under your pinky where the hands are! Takes a bit of getting used to, but like anything, worth getting to grips with as it still impresses! I was lucky enough to have found mine second hand and if indeed these are no longer available, will be the only way to find them now so be careful.

Thanks all for your help I have a Liberace trying to get out so I will go for the best one. I also tried the cheaper ones and sent them back a while ago. Yes the online shop is still not fixed I don't know why.
