Nicky Hayden has been Tissot’s sports ambassador, since November 2005 and his success is deeply connected with the partnership with Swiss watch brand. In 2006, ‘Kentucky Kid’ became new MotoGP World Champion and the first ever World Champion of the brand. Tissot knew how to answer on this great opportunity and immediately launched first Nicky Hayden’s limited watch edition.

Tissot has been the Official Timekeeper of the MotoGP since 2001 and there is no doubt that Nicky Hayden is perfect person for representing the sports watch line of the brand.
One of the best promotions of watches.
Wherever I see watches stores first thing that I see is Nicky Hayden
Everything on this watch looks okay except one thing, the strap. I really hate red color on anything, especially on watches and other gadgets. When I take a look at the features of the watch, everything looks very good and reliable, and the dial is nice, too. Everything would be perfect if there was some other strap, for example black or blue rubber strap, or maybe some combination with leather or steel. I hope that Tissot will read my objection and that they will never repeat this kind of mistake.
I`m a big admirer of Tissot as a brand. This watch is, I must admit, one of the worst in my opinion. I like sport watches, but not like this one. I prefer watches with digital displays, big with robust cases and leather straps, so this watch definitely isn`t my favorite.
I agree with you, Tim, I also prefer a calmer version of watches. Tissot doesn`t have a lot of such kinds of watches, but the brands like Seiko, Omega or Nautica have. On the other hand, the price of this watch completely fits the quality of the watch.
