Design And Features

The T-Sport collection features Tissot watches for men and women that are decidedly sporty, with bold, versatile designs that emphasise strength and clarity. Cases generally range from 40mm to 45mm, providing a substantial wrist presence without compromising wearability. Shapes are predominantly round, allowing for streamlined chronograph layouts, tachymeters, and rotating bezels. High-contrast dials and luminescent markers enhance legibility in all lighting conditions, with straps available in rubber, leather, or stainless steel for maximum comfort and flexibility. Powered by Swiss automatic or quartz movements, T-Sport watches ensure precise timekeeping and dependable performance for demanding environments.

Key models in the T-Sport collection include the PRS 516, T-Race, and Seastar 1000. The PRS 516, a motorsport-inspired watch, is known for its 42mm case, tachymeter, and sporty aesthetics, with a perforated strap reminiscent of vintage racing gloves. The T-Race, at a larger 45mm, is an ode to Tissot’s collaboration with MotoGP, featuring dynamic design elements like brake-disc bezels and tire-tread straps. Meanwhile, the Seastar 1000 is a 43mm diver’s watch, water-resistant up to 300 metres, and equipped with a rotating bezel, making it a robust option for water sports and everyday wear. Each T-Sport model is designed with specific athletic interests in mind, creating a collection that combines durability and functionality with a distinct, sporty appeal.
