Welcome Tissot
Just before Christmas I posted my Christmas wish list. On it I listed the Tissot T-Touch and commented that I felt this watch would make a perfect timepiece for a traveling photographer like myself. I mentioned how it could be incredibly helpful for trips like I do, where I find myself at high altitudes or in environments where there are quick weather changes. It goes without saying that every photographer finds themselves in places wondering which way is east or west so we can prepare for the next sunrise or sunset shoot. Well, apparently I was not the only one who felt that this watch was a perfect fit. So did Tissot. Tissot feels that the T-Touch is a watch that photographers will benefit from and believe that I can help them communicate this to you. This is why they have agreed to join the growing list of sponsors of my work. I am pleased, proud and excited to announce Tissot as the newest partner in my work.
From its beginning in 1853 to present Tissot watches have continuously generated fresh and innovative timepieces. They were the first to produce the plastic watch (1971)ย as well as the first anti-magnetic watch (1929). Tissot is an official timekeeper for the world championships in cycling, motorcycling, fencing and ice hockey. Tissot was also a key Sponsor for the Formula one teams Lotus, Renault and Sauber. So as you can see they know a little about keeping time!
You will be hearing more about this watch in the future right here. Until then, join with me in welcoming Tissot to The Digital Trekker family.

Congratulation !
That, to me, is a really unique sponsor. Congratulations I hope the relationship works well. I remember the Christmas wish list post and that I really liked the look of that watch. Tissot is a watch brand I have admired for a while and while I don’t actually own one they would be high on my list if I was in the market for a new one. I tend to trust brands that have a long and successful history at what they do over ones moving into a space less familiar with them and Tissot seems the former. I look forward to the billboard ad with you leaning on a hut or rock in some far flung place, your camera in front of you, and your watch arm reaching up to your pipe and the watch clearly visible ๐
Ed, I’ll have to get someone to shoot shot. Everest might be the perfect location, don’t you think?
Does that mean that all your faithful readers get a watch??? ๐ Congrats!
Santa at play. Excellent
Congratulations Matt, a nice and justified reward for your work!
Thanks folks. The fact is I love all my sponsors and each have product I believe in and want my brand to be associated with. I am proud that Tissot feels the same way about me. I am sure there will never be billboard with my mug on it, but I am excited none the less.
