Watch guarantees.
Discussion
About 12 years ago I bought my husband a Tissot T670 Titanium watch. Recently some of its functions failed so it was sent back to Tissot. They responded by stating that they didn't maintain a stock of any parts for watches that are more than ten years old, so were unable to repair it. They specified about five or six of their watches that they would give a small discount off ( about £40, I think ) by way of a gesture, but they insisted that this offer meant that they would not return his T670, The watches they suggested were unattractive, and my husband wanted his Titanium one back. He got it repaired by a member of the BHI in the end.
The point is this - He has now seen a brand new, unused T670 with its box and paperwork etc. It is obviously old stock, but if Tissot don't retain any parts, what good is the guarantee ? Not much, I would think ! What do people think of this deal ?

Buy it, keep it as a backup or spares for his current one. When both are broke, throw them in the back of a drawer, then go buy something else (preferably decent and readily repairable).
There are plenty of mechanical watches available for less than £400 new/pre-owned on chrono24 – all those ana-digi ones have been obsolete for ages now, as any alarm function will be done louder and easier on a phone.
