Tissot made history in 1999 with the release of its first tactile watch, a groundbreaking timepiece that arrived well before the advent of smartphones and smartwatches. This revolutionary innovation became the foundation for the Tissot Touch collection, which has since evolved with new technologies and striking designs. Currently Time+Tide offers the latest iteration of the T-Touch line, featuring solar-powered models that highlight Tissot’s commitment to eco-friendly innovation.
The Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar models available at Time+Tide offer a connected smartwatch experience with a focus on privacy and function. Encased in a robust 47mm titanium case and featuring a scratch-resistant ceramic bezel, the T-Touch Connect is built for durability. Equipped with a MIP (Memory in Pixel) screen, the watch displays notifications for calls, messages, emails and social media when in Connected Mode. When switched to Watch Mode, it transforms into a traditional timepiece with essential tools like a perpetual calendar, countdown timer, dual time zones, alarms, a chronograph, compass and weather indicators combining modern connectivity with timeless utility.
The Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar isn’t just a smartwatch – it’s also a fitness tracker, thanks to its built-in accelerometer that displays daily steps, distance travelled, and calories burned. The watch comes in a wide range of styles to suit different tastes, including the classic black dial/bezel combined with a stainless steel bracelet. For a sportier vibe, standout models feature a red silicone strap with a black dial/bezel or a black PVD case with orange indices on the bezel and dial and a rubber strap. For a relaxed aesthetic, fabric strap options complete the lineup.
