Why is the roman numeral number of tissot watch is IIII not IV?

IIII is perfectly acceptable notation of the number 4. It's what the Romans themselves would have generally used. However, it's usage on watches is for aesthetic appeal. It gives a sense of balance with the VIII on the other side.
IX is the real oddity as the Romans would have generally used VIIII. However, as with IIII, IX balances with the II on the other side.
The numerals also have a radial balance, such that 1, 2, 3 and 4 are composed entirely of Is, 5, 6, 7 and 8 entirely of I and V, and 9, 10, 11 and 12 entirely of I and X.

The roman numeral for 5 is V. I do not have a citron quartz watch but a quick search through google images shows that citron uses the correct numeral. On *some* watches the numeral is upside down but this is merely because they chose to keep the top of the numeral to the outside of the watch. It looks a bit strange but it is correct.
