浪琴名匠chronicling the legacy of timekeeping excellen

A Legacy Born from Innovation

In 1860, a small workshop in Le Locle, Switzerland was established by two brothers, François and Urs Schild. The name "Tissot" was chosen to honor their father's watchmaking skills. Over the years, Tissot continued to innovate and improve their watches with new technologies such as the first pocket watch with two time zones in 1853.

The Birth of a Brand

In 1915, Tissot became an official supplier to the Russian Imperial Court, marking its entry into international markets. This milestone event paved the way for further collaborations with other prestigious organizations and individuals worldwide.

A Timepiece Fit for Royalty

One notable example is when Prince Albert I of Monaco chose Tissot as his official timekeeper in 1907 due to its exceptional precision and reliability. This royal endorsement solidified Tissot's reputation among high-society circles.

The Spirit of Adventure Lives On

Today, TISSOT continues this spirit of adventure through partnerships like its association with FIBA (International Basketball Federation). As an official partner since 2016, they provide timing services at basketball tournaments worldwide.

Innovative Design Meets Tradition

From classic designs like the Le Locle series that pays homage to its Swiss heritage to more contemporary models such as the PR100 or Rock series that blend style with functionality – each piece reflects not only tradition but also innovative design principles that have defined TISSOT throughout history.

With over a century and a half under its belt since it was founded by two skilled watchmakers in a small workshop nestled in Le Locle, Switzerland – we can confidently say that this brand has truly chronicled itself as one dedicated solely towards perfecting timekeeping excellence while maintaining both innovation and tradition hand-in-hand throughout all these years.

From providing precise pocket watches for those who wanted accurate travel times during long journeys across vast lands without needing multiple devices; collaborating with esteemed organizations such as Russia's Imperial Court; being named Official Timekeeper by Prince Albert I himself - there are countless stories within which define what makes up this remarkable journey called 'TISSOT' today!
