I have reduced the price on this Limited Edition of 1853 pieces reflecting the founding of Tissot in 1853. This is number 0258 of 1853 produced for Tissot’s 150th Anniversary (1853 – 2003)
Extremely elegant automatic chronograph.
Very hard to find due to the small numbers made.
18k Rose gold watch
Owned since new - 2003
It has been worn several times and the original brown alligator leather strap (a little wear evident) is attached.
The watch face is silvered, with rose gold hands, and features the heritage deployment clasp and the now famous liquid sculpted lugs.
As Tissot described it, “…These ultimate chronograph watches inspired by the 1946 prestigious piece, embody the very best of past and present technology with their complexly decorated traditional movement with counters at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock and its 19th century-style engraved case back (incorporating two openings) with gilded oscillation weight showing the foundation and anniversary dates of Tissot – 1853 and 2003.
