Tissot

Tissot was founded in 1853 in Le Locle, Switzerland, by Charles-Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Émile, and quickly earned a reputation for making well-priced, reliable Swiss watches. Early on, the brand focused on pocket watches—often sold abroad, especially in the U.S. and Russia—thanks to Charles-Émile’s travels and smart business sense.

By the early 20th century, Tissot had become known for innovation. In 1930, they introduced one of the first anti-magnetic watches and also merged with Omega to form the Société Suisse pour l’Industrie Horlogère (SSIH), an important step that helped both brands grow.

Tissot really came into its own in the 1950s–1970s, producing creative and technical watches like the Navigator (one of the earliest multiple-time-zone wristwatches), the PR516 (a motorsport classic), and the Astrolon/Idea 2001, the first watch with a mechanical movement made almost entirely from plastic. They were never afraid to experiment with materials, shapes, and new technologies.

The brand survived the quartz crisis by embracing quartz early on, and later became part of the Swatch Group, which allowed Tissot to remain affordable while still using solid Swiss movements.

Today, Tissot is known for offering Swiss-made watches with strong value, from vintage-inspired mechanical pieces to innovative modern models. Their long history, constant innovation, and accessible price point make them one of the most respected “everyday” Swiss brands out there.
