Ballade 40mm T1564102204100 Watch

The Watch

Tissot is one of those Swiss watchmaking brands that never stops pushing the boundaries of innovation - from cutting-edge materials to limited editions, every timepiece perfectly balances modern aesthetics with traditional craftsmanship. It's the go-to choice for anyone seeking a watch that's both timeless and forward-thinking. At the crossroads of heritage and innovation, the Swiss brand proudly introduces the Ballade T1564102204100 watch. This model features a case crafted in brushed and polished 316L stainless steel with a rose gold PVD coating. Bold yet refined, it measures 40 mm in diameter and 8.25 mm in thickness, weighing 120 g. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial from impact, enhanced by an anti-reflective coating for effortless readability. A rose gold fluted bezel frames the case beautifully. At 3 o'clock, a grey crown with a knurled finish provides a confident grip for crown operations. The watch is sealed with an engraved snap-back case back, ensuring water resistance up to 10 ATM.

The Dial

This elegant dial adds a striking touch to this timepiece. It features a midnight blue background with crosshatch stripes framed by a minute track at the edge. At 3 o'clock, a date window with a white background and pinkish edges displays black Arabic numerals, while baton-style rose gold indices mark the hours. At the center, three rose gold hands provide accurate timekeeping. The hour and minute hands - both baton-style - are coated with Super-LumiNova, as are the hour indices, ensuring optimal legibility in low-light conditions. The seconds are tracked by a slim sweep hand. The Swiss Made label appears at 6 o'clock, while the brand name is signed just below 12 o'clock.

The Movement

Powering this watch is a Swiss-made ETA F05.115 quartz movement - a robust, reliable mechanism delivering precise performance across all functions, complete with an EOL (End of Life) indicator to signal when the battery needs replacing. The battery is a Renata 371, providing long-lasting autonomy.

The Bracelet

To elevate your wrist, this bracelet combines everyday elegance with lasting durability. Crafted in 316L stainless steel with a rose gold PVD coating at the center, it achieves a refined two-tone look. Its brushed and polished links hug the wrist comfortably, adapting to any outfit and any occasion. The lug width is 20 mm. The easy-open system makes swapping straps effortless, while the butterfly deployment clasp ensures smooth, secure wear.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters - making it a genuinely water-resistant timepiece. Ready to dive into aquatic adventures, it handles everything from puddles to the pool without complaint. Showering, bathing, and recreational swimming are all fair game. That said, our Ocarat watchmaking experts note that this model is not designed for diving (professional or otherwise) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend keeping the crown and pushers dry during immersion.
