Story
The late 1960s marked a period of bold experimentation in Swiss watchmaking, where traditional round cases evolved into the 'cushion' and 'tonneau' shapes seen here.
Maker / Origin
Founded in 1853 by Charles-Félicien Tissot and his son, the company has been a pioneer in Swiss horology for over 170 years.
Condition & Value
The dial shows heavy oxidation/spotting, and there is visible wear to the gold plating on the lugs and case edges. Value is driven by the Tissot brand name and the desirable automatic movement.
