Brand history — Tissot
Founded in Le Locle in 1853, Tissot played an important role in bringing Swiss watchmaking to a broad audience. Its historic range includes both elegant dress watches and sporting models such as the Seastar. From the 1930s, Tissot offered antimagnetic watches to address a practical problem: everyday magnetic fields could disturb the regulating components of mechanical movements.
