Product Description

The Tissot Story

For more than 150 years, Tissot has embodied the innovation and tradition of Swiss watch-making. Based in the Neuchâtel area of the Jura Mountains, in Le Locle, Switzerland, Charles-Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Emile created the watch making company Tissot in 1853. Whether in the technology of its movements, in the research for special materials or in the very functions of the watch itself, Tissot's engineers and watchmakers have developed pioneering timepieces over the years.

Some of Tissot's triumphs over the years include the the Idea 2001 (the world's first plastic watch) released in 1971, the Rock watch (which set the timepiece's movement in a stone case made from Swiss Alps granite) in 1985, and the Wood watch from 1988 (with a completely wooden case). Tissot uses the best movements (from ETA SA Manufacture Horlogère Suisse), the highest quality materials (316L steel, 18K gold, titanium) and scratch-proof glasses (sapphire crystal--at least 2500 Vickers).

The company has been involved with high profile sports events since 1974 when they sponsored a racing car in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, France. Since then Tissot's timepieces have been chosen as official timekeepers for world championships in cycling, motorcycling, fencing and ice hockey. And Tissot is currently the the official watch and timekeeper of NASCAR.

Tissot timepieces have been worn by a bevy of celebrities over the years--including Grace Kelly, Elvis Presley and Nelson Mandela--and James Stewart's character L.B. Jefferies wore a Tissot timepiece in Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window." Today the company is represented in a variety of sporting fields by English soccer star Michael Owen, IndyCar driver Danica Patrick, and MotoGP world champion Nicky Hayden. Today, Tissot is a member of the Swatch Group, the world's largest watch producer and distributor.

This review is from: Tissot Men's T0134204620100 T-Touch Watch (Watch)

I had an original T-Touch but always hesitated to wear in in certain situations because of its limited water resistance. The T-Touch "Expert" and its 100meter water resistance make this a definate sportsmans watch. The combination of a titanium case and great looking leather stap make the watch light as a feather even though it has a ton of features. Granted I'll probably never really use some of the many features,but the ones I do use come in handy. There is a bit of a learning curve as far as advanced operation but the manual spells things out fairly well. Great watch all around.

This review is from: Tissot Men's T0134204620100 T-Touch Watch (Watch)

One of the best watches I have. Sporty as well as business casual. All the features are very catchy, and sometime useful as well. I have started wearing this watch almost everyday now. It takes sometime initially get used to its butterfly clasp.
Overall a must have and a good piece for one's collection. I ordered the watch from perfect timing and it arrived right on time with all the manuals and warranty card. I will highly recommend anyone to buy it from PerfectTiming. They ship on time and pack it right!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding piece of kit, January 5, 2009

I love it, really cool watch, lots of extras, more for amusement than practicality but still enjoyable all the same. The leather strap is really warm and contrasts nicely with the watch face. The clasp on the strap takes a little getting used to but its part of enjoying the feel of a new watch. All the extras are bewidering, every thing from a barometer, a thermostat to a compass but all enjoyable and fascinating. More to follow as I work out to use all the extras on this amazing watch. A friend introduced me to Tissot, I was initially taken in by the artistry of the watch but have grown to really like all the extras. I just hope the beauty of the watch is matched by its reliability, so far so good.
