I wonder if the lack of lugs, plus the hole in the back, indicates that the watch was meant to be fixed to something else - perhaps as part of a travel watch?

Good morning Jerry, I managed to find these pictures in cyberspace that show the watch with a one piece strap with a large hole the diameter of the watch. It would appear that you unscrew the back and sandwich the strap between the front of the case and the back................weird! I think you will have to have a custom made strap.

I suspect the watch you have is a ladies, and I regarding the hole in the back, I have no idea what it is for.

I seem to remember that Omega had something similar.  Cannot see any advantages apart from losing the lugs and case pins,  big deal,  they have made changing a strap into a nightmare.

Is this really a hole in the back or just a recess ? Can you see what's in there ? Is it another way to wind the watch, like an old pocket watch ?

The strap idea is like the omega dynamic - tissot is omega's 'lesser' brand but don't know what the hole is for. I am sure Tool 102 is refering to the Omega tool 102 which is used to remove the crystal.

Regarding the strange disk on the back of the case. it looks like it could be a removable plug to allow the balance regulator to be adjusted when the movement is cased as the watch does not have a removable back.
