No idea how much this is worth.
It was bought between 1984 and 1986 from "Pilot" - nowadays The Tintin Shop - in London.
Essentially, a pre-Swatch black, plastic strap job - the later Swatches are very similar.
Images available.
Works perfectly well - has not been worn, just hung on the study wall. One tiny scratch on the face.
A member of the Tintin Shop has confirmed that these were made specially in Hong Kong between 1984 and 1986 - long before the later Swatch examples! Comes with an original, blank "Pilot" invoice sheet from the period.

Did you ever find out how much it's worth, DM24a? I have one with sleeping Milou/Snowy on the face and would like to sell it to some who appreciates it.
Thanks.

Moderator Note: There have been many many Tintin-themed watches over the decades (possibly hundreds?), so you might want to add a little more detail to your description - manufacturer and year if possible, and things like if it is a manual or automatic movement, etc.

Is it possible to post a picture of the watch?

Hi, All.
I've just seen the original date of my post (28th May 2015!) when I offered my Pre-Swatch Tintin watch (1984-1986 vintage) for sale - I purchased it from Pilot.
I never did move the wristwatch on, and it has been hanging for years in a cupboard.
Today, I came across my Tintin ology sign-in details again by chance, after losing the bit of paper in the study years ago.
It occurs to me now that if somebody does want it they might make me a sensible offer.
If not, it's not coming to any harm hanging where it is.
It is Pre-Swatch and is a battery-powered quartz movement.
Best wishes, David.
