Further to my question 13 April regarding 'tick' noise, and the kind responses, I have sourced and purchased a fabulous 17013. The ticking noise, is somewhat muted compared to the old Swatch ( I dug it out and stuck a battery in it for comparison) and I can only hear this ticking when held close to my ear, and it's not hidden in the sock draw at night. Never owned a TT before, and the gold accents are quite subtle, and although I have only owned this for a few days, I know ot will get lots of wrist time.
