It looks great - the bezel gives it a sportier look than the previous version I had. The face is a lovely colour.

One of those ones that when I saw it, I knew I had to have it.

Picked up one pretty similar to this last week in New York. It was cheap so I couldn't say no

Picked up a MotoGP version of the Tissot T-Race a while ago...



I really wanted the red rubber strap on it, but a replacement costs over €100 and looks like it would be impossible to fit.
Will have to put up with the black or use it as a lame excuse to get another when I can afford it.

Haven't worn this one for ages as the retaining loops on the strap were broken. Instead of spending a fortune on a new strap, I got a few loops for £1 each.

Where did you get the new keepers from?

A watch repairer stand in the middle of Westfield Stratford. Initially was going to buy a few cheap straps and take off the loops but he had a box of them for sale - he even gave me an additional one for free!

Anyone interested in the above Slava with roman numerals instead?

I've just been informed by the seller that he sent me the wrong one by mistake (correct one also on the way). So if anyone here wants it I could just pass it on instead of sending it back. (I paid 66 Euro all in)

If you're interested, pm me ...it'll be a few more days before the watch arrives .
