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 T0134204420200 T Touch Expert Watch (Watch)

As a fanatic in hand watches, i used to collect a lot of them. Passing by Casio, Calvin Klein, Victorinox, Longines, Guess, etc...
3 years ago i got lucky of having the old T touch on my birthday, a gift given me by my sister... Although it was (and still a great watch) it had one big downside... You can never use it under water, which is funny for a 30 m dive watch that you can't even shower with!
The specs were enough by then. 2 months ago i got the Tissot T touch expert just for the fact that they resolved the water resistance issue, its appearance was attractive, tried it in camping, biking, scuba diving. For your long trips you will be able to enjoy the watch for the following facts:
1-I can guaranty you that the Azimuth is of a lot of help, you wouldn't need to keep track of where the bezels were from before at the beginning of your trip.
2-You will be able to determine the real altitude after that they were able to fix some filters between the pressure and the altitude.
3-The Barometer is improved as for new relative and absolute pressure for weather were added to the watch.
4-The LCD backlight is very useful at night (which wasn't yet added to the old Tissot).
5-You can keep track of 2 timings in your travels, keeping the time from back home and leaving the other option to your new location.
6-It also has a new feature which will allow you to keep track of 2 alarms, instead of adjusting your usual daily alarm you'll be able to add a new one for your non permanent use.
7-The chronograph has been updated too by adding the counter-count (backward).
8-The thermometer has a small downside, is that you will have to take off the watch for 10 min to get the real temperature.
As you can see its a great product, the watch is perfectly sized for its use... Chunky but fit and relevant to its usage, it's a matter of taste.
You will be very happy of buying this watch.

5.0 out of 5 stars Titanium Tissot T-Touch Expert, March 8, 2010

Absolutely outstanding watch! Unbelievably light, packed with useful features for an active enthusiast. Functions flawlessly, the altitude tracking feature is remarkably accurate if you stop it when resting. Large face makes it easy to read in the dark and LED backlight is particularly useful when you've been out of the light for extended periods. Honestly Tissot did an excellent job on this watch the only thing I miss is a second hand but the digital display more than compensates (including the seconds in the displayed time)

At the time of writing this review, I have had the watch for 6 weeks and love it. I like the styling, the brilliant technology and features. In fact, I like the watch so much, I purchased another version of it as well, the T-Touch Expert T013.420.11.032.00 which has the white face and staineless steel band. I alternate wearing each watch depending on mood and what I am doing. The technology is quite amazing, being able to just touch the watch face and then check the various features like Compass, Barometer/Meteorological conditions, Altimeter, Thermometer, Chronograph and Alarm is a wonderful feature. The Altimeter and Barometer are surprisingly very accurate. When I show the functions to people they are quite astounded at it's technology.
The watch is quite large and chunky, but I really like the rugged, bold look. The featured watch for this review, the T-Touch Expert T013.420.44.202.00 is made of Titanium and is quite light for such a large watch - 129grams - and the Titanium can be easily scratched, but this can easily be polished out giving the same brushed look using a fine steel pot scourer used for washing up.
The watch face is made of Sapphire Crystal and is virtually unscratchable. All in all, a great watch and highly recommended.
