Tissot Watches – Swiss Watches with Quartz, Solar and Powermatic 80 Movements
Looking for a Tissot watch? You will find a wide choice, from entry-level quartz to higher-category automatics: men's and women's wristwatches with quartz, Powermatic 80 automatic and solar movements. We are an official Tissot dealer, we send the watches with the manufacturer warranty and home delivery, and we do not let go after the purchase either: we change batteries and straps and check water resistance in our own watch service.
What is worth knowing about the Tissot brand?
Tissot is a watch brand founded in 1853 in Le Locle, Switzerland, and today a member of the Swatch Group. By the brand's own account, it made the first mass-produced antimagnetic wristwatch, and later the T-Touch, watches with a touch-sensitive crystal, made its name known. Its most talked-about development today is the Powermatic 80: an automatic movement developed together with ETA, with an 80-hour power reserve.
Which Tissot series suits you?
- Tissot PRX – an integrated steel bracelet and a flat case. The brand's most popular series, in quartz and automatic versions, in men's and women's sizes.
- Tissot PR 100 – the most affordable way into the brand, every piece 10 ATM, also available as a solar version.
- Tissot Seastar – dive watches with 300 and 600 metres of water resistance, if you would wear it on the beach or in the sea too.
- Tissot Gentleman and Ballade – for a shirt or a jacket, many of them Powermatic 80 automatics.
What determines the price of a Tissot watch?
Primarily the movement: the quartz Everytime and PR 100 models are the entry level, the chronographs (Chrono XL, Supersport) the middle range, and the Powermatic 80 automatics start above that. The top category is made up of the PR516 and the more special PRX pieces. You always see the prices on the product page; for a more expensive watch, you can check the payment options in the cart.
Should your Tissot be quartz or automatic?
If you would only wear it now and then, or do not want to fuss with it, quartz is the calmer choice: accurate, and it needs a battery every few years. If you like a watch to feel "alive" and would wear it daily, look at the Powermatic 80 – you can put it down for a weekend and it is still running on Monday. Our rule of thumb: their weight and thickness feel different on the wrist, so on the product page check the case thickness too, not just the diameter.
How to choose a Tissot watch online
Measure your wrist circumference and compare it with the case diameter given on the product page: because of its integrated bracelet the PRX looks a little bigger, while the Gentleman sits more discreetly. As an official dealer we provide the manufacturer warranty, and we also take care of sizing the metal bracelet and later servicing. If you are torn between two models, write to us and we will explain the difference.
