Tissot was founded in 1853 by Charles-Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Émile Tissot in the Swiss city of Le Locle, in the Neuchâtel canton of the Jura Mountains area. The father and son team worked as a casemaker (Charles-Félicien Tissot) and watchmaker (Charles-Emile). His son having expressed an interest in watchmaking from a young age. The two turned their house at the time into a small ‘factory’. Charles-Emile Tissot left for Russia in 1858 and succeeded in selling their savonnette pocket watches across the Russian Empire. Russia became Tissot’s greatest market, with the brand gaining popularity even in the Tsar’s court; so Charles Tissot, Charles-Émile’s son, moved to Moscow in 1885 to manage the branch his father had set up there.
In 1929, the global financial collapse brought the entire watch industry to a standstill, and Omega and Tissot forged an alliance under the leadership of Paul Tissot-Draguett, who had been trained at Tissot and became Omega’s Chief Executive Officer in 1930. The merger formed Société Suisse pour l’Industrie Horlogère (SSIH),: 208 and Tissot-Omega watches from this era are sought after by collectors.
Tissot’s first engagement as an official timekeeper was in 1938 where they timed a series of ski races in Villars-sur-Ollon, near the company’s home town in the Jura mountains. Tissot was used for timing downhill skiing in Switzerland in 1938, and for the Davis Cup in 1957.
SSIH-ASUAG was formed in 1983 (Allgemeine Schweizerische Uhrenindustrie Aktiengesellschaft, ASUAG, was a holding company supplying the watch industry),[3]: 208–209 then SMH (Société Suisse de Microélectronique et d’horlogerie; 1983–1985)

Powermatic 80
An automatic watch is powered by the energy of the person who wears it. Wrist movement enables the mechanism to run. The Powermatic 80 movement boasts 80 hours of power reserve, which is enough to continue telling time accurately even if the watch is not worn for three days. It is an innovative movement that outperforms the competition, whose movements generaly provide 1.5 days of power reserve.Sapphire
A sapphire crystal gives a watch the following properties: extremely high resistance to impact and superior screen and hand readability thanks to its transparency. Because it is the strongest material after diamonds, it is used in fine timepieces for its anti-scratch prowess. Sapphire crystals can take many forms and give the watch a variety of looks: flat, domed, concave or ground.Water resistance
All Tissot watch cases undergo several tests, including a water resistance check. Tissot tests the watch’s ability to resist impacts and pressure, as well as the penetration of liquids, gas and dust by replicating the real-life conditions in which the watch may find itself.Diamonds
Tissot pledges to guarantee the origin and quality ‒ including colour, clarity and carats ‒ of the diamonds in its watches. All Tissot diamonds meet the certification requirements of the Kimberley process, an international system for certifying rough diamonds.Estimated delivery on 16 - 22 July, 2024$1,300.00 EAN: 108000071973 -

TISSOT SEASTAR 1000 POWERMATIC 80 T120.407.11.041.00
Case material: Ceramic The main advantage of ceramics is the high hardness and color stability. It’s harder than stainless steel, and therefore has a very high resistance to scratching. It is hypoallergic and therefore suitable for all with increased skin sensitivity. Its main drawback is its fragility – can break during strong impact.
Case material: stainless steel Stainless steel 316L (Stainless Steel) is a very durable material that theoretically can not be destroyed. It is hard (non-bendable and non-crackable), color stable, antiallergic (does not react with body fluids and therefore no metal components are not released into the skin and flesh) and has anti-corrosive surface (the surface is resistant to oxidation and corrosion. Moreover, it is also resistant to fresh and salt water).
Movement: automatic Powermatic 80Automatic watches with Powermatic 80 technology are powered by mechanical movement. They work on the principle of gradual opening of coiled springs. The energy of natural hand movements is transmitted through the rotor winding system, while wearing the watches, which automatically tightens the spring. Power reserve is up to 80 hours.
