About Tissot
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.

Customer Reviews

The best watch I ever bought
Firstly, I am not a watch connoiseur. Far from it, I have been known to wear cheap, durable watches from Casio or even Timex if need served it. Neither makes bad watches. However, with the new T-Touch Tissot has certainly outdone itself. It is every man's secret wish toy, and it's stylish to boot.

So why should anyone consider plunking down money on this extravagant piece? Where do I begin?:

Firstly, it has an extremely ergonomic design, with nice clean lines and a finely polished Titanium exterior.
It is sturdy to the point of fault, resisting more wear and tear than you'd think possible. It was, after all, designed with the idea of outdoor use in mind.
But the most impressive feature of this watch is, of course, the touch screen that allows a myriad of functions with the simple pulse and touch of your finger. You can navigate through an alarm function, a compass, barometer and even altimeter with the greatest of ease and functionality.

In short, the design of this watch straddles extreme functionality and beautiful design with the greatest of ease, making this watch covetible and useful by both people who wish to make a bold statement about their style as well as people who want a watch that is functional with additional bells and whistles but won't die at the slightest tap. This is the perfect watch for any man.

Tissot Touch broke after 2 1/2 years
Great watch but for a list price of $900 you would expect it to last for more then 2 1/2 years. The whole multi function including display just stopped working one day. And I have been treating it like a precious baby, no diving, no swimming, not even bringing it to the beach. Believing it was only a battery replacement I sent it off to Tissot, but NO. Tissot have quoted me a cost of repair (replacement of: multi function/movement exchange) for $400!!!! 6 months after warranty expiry.

excellent product, fast delivery
I bought the Tissot T-Touch from Amazon merchant Kenmar Watches. The watch arrived in Ireland from the US in 3 days which was very impressive. Tissot's presentation box is very nice and the watch also came with an additional 150th anniversary book on the history of Tissot. Well appreciated by a hard core watch collector like myself. I must confess that I currently have a Zenith Rainbow, an Omega SeaMaster, a Seiko Kinetic, a Citizen AquaLand and Mares Nemo in a collection which is tipped heavily in favour of dive watches. The chunky titanium styling of the T-Touch is in keeping with the rest of my horological wardrobe and is much appreciated. As is the light weight of my Titanium version. The overall finishing is excellent with a sapphire crystal of genuine quality , a comfortable and elegant bracelet and the polished titanium case. As quartz goes this is extremely accurate and is currently only 2 seconds slow since I got it a month ago. The carbon fibre dial is well finished and is a nice touch. The lumed markers are thin but clearly visible at night.

The advanced features such as compass, barometer, thermometer and altimeter are all accurate within reasonable tolerances. However, the thermometer is affected by body temperature (as expected) and the altimeter calculates based on atmospheric pressure so it must be calibrated prior to use from a known altitude. With correct calibration it works fine. I'm not sure I'll use the features all that much but they are functional and this watch is not a toy. The only reasons I didn't give it 5 stars is the annoying lack of electroluminescent lighting for the LCD display which render the features useless at night. Water resistance of only 30 metres is less than ideal but hey, it's not like I lack a watch I can wear while snorkeling. If you need a backlight get the solid titanium protrek from Japan. Otherwise get the Tissot, it's very stylish.
