From design codes rooted in Tissot’s heritage to fashion-forward silhouettes, The Watch Store curates an ensemble of timepieces for Father’s Day
In celebration of Father’s Day, The Watch Store and Swiss-born watch brand Tissot honor the journey of fatherhood by curating six distinct designs for this year’s selection of watches.
Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 Carbon
Though initially a reinterpretation of the original 1978 Seastar, the PRX line has distinguished itself by embracing the versatility of its slimmed stainless steel build, becoming an understated yet refined companion for moments at the Sunday market or sharing some sunlight at the nearby park.
Apart from its distinguishable forged carbon fiber body, this Powermatic 80 Carbon variant is also capable of retaining up to 80 hours of function after use, all while giving the wearer added areas of personalization through its interchangeable quick-release bracelet.
Tissot Seastar 1000 Powermatic 80
Even before its initial re-release in 2003, the Seastar line was created to explore a side of Tissot that favored extreme conditions, drawing the attention of mountaineers, divers, and budding explorers alike to take advantage of its thick-set stainless steel construction and precision timekeeping features.
For the Seastar 1000 Powermatic 80, its rugged build allows it to reach depths of up to 300 meters underwater. And while complemented by its black diver watch face design, the timepiece also features its stainless steel bracelet with a folding diver’s extension clasp.
Tissot PR 100 Jungfraubahn
Inspired by the railway that connected the mountain pass of Kleine Scheidegg to the summit of Jungfraujoch, the PR 100 Jungfraubahn etches the Swiss mountains into its design. Made with an all-stainless steel construction and a navy blue face, the watch also features a yellow second hand, which references the railcar’s similarly-colored pinstripe.
For The Watch Store, this piece serves as a versatile accessory hoped for new fathers to have alongside, as it also features Tissot’s Super-LumiNova® accents to allow wearers to see the time even during late-night wake-up calls from the other room.
Tissot Le Locle Powermatic 80
Named after Tissot’s hometown, the Le Locle Powermatic 80 serves as a reference to the brand’s century-spanning heritage in watchmaking, even featuring the brand’s original typeface and engravings at the center of its open-back design.
With this edition’s stainless steel and rose-gold design, however, the piece complements looks that resonate in more dressed-up occasions, whether paired with a tailored suit for date night or with a knitted sweater and color-matched trousers to the movies.
Tissot Everytime
As a more fashion-forward design when compared to Tissot’s established range, the Everytime Collection focuses on the watch’s thin and understated silhouette. This allows the piece to serve as a functional accessory for those looking to add a pop of silver and dark aquamarine to their ensemble, made further accessible through the bracelet’s quick-release system and automatic movement.
Tissot Chrono XL Classic
As one of the larger-faced watches in Tissot’s roster, the Chrono XL Classic boasts a 45 millimeter diameter body within its stainless steel construction. With this, the piece is then able to house its timekeeping features without compromising its flattened design.
Accented with a deep blue face and customizable brown leather strap, the Chrono XL Classic, then, pertains to those who favor timepieces made to age alongside them, but still prefer to have a stopwatch in case a moment of competition comes by.
