Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar Watch T1214204705101

The Watch

For over 150 years, Swiss watchmaker Tissot has been crafting timeless, trend-setting timepieces. The maison broke new ground by creating the world's first solar-powered touch watch - and today, it's reimagined for a more sustainable and contemporary era. This model features a barrel-shaped case in satin-finished titanium measuring 47 mm in diameter, topped by a black ceramic bezel housing the compass function. This watch is sure to appeal to tech-savvy, sport-minded men. To navigate its many features, you'll find two pushers at 2 o'clock and 4 o'clock. The "Start" button controls the chronograph and countdown timer, and also manages the touch function of the crystal. The "Back" button lets you log your performance data, among other things. These two pushers flank the screw-down crown at 3 o'clock, which adjusts the time and the backlight function depending on its position. The dial is shielded from everyday shocks and scratches by a solid touch sapphire crystal. Finally, this watch is water-resistant to 100 meters, thanks to its screw-secured case back.

The Dial

Be captivated by this intense round black dial. At its center, you'll find two skeleton hands: one with an arrow tip marking the hours, and the other indicating the minutes. They're joined by a slender red seconds hand featuring Tissot's signature "T". All three sweep between the time markers represented by geometric indices and a railroad track. Together, they form the analog display. On the lower portion of the dial, you'll also spot the digital display, packed with multiple features listed below. The maison's signature sits proudly at 12 o'clock.

The Movement

Powering this watch with precision and reliability is a Solar Quartz movement. Built with the latest technology, it features next-generation photovoltaic cells to keep the battery charged. Battery life varies depending on usage and light exposure - virtually unlimited in disconnected mode and approximately 6 months in connected mode.

The Strap

On each side of the case sits a silicone strap. Its bold red color adds a striking personality to this watch. Flexible and durable, it delivers all-day wearing comfort. A gray pin buckle lets you dial in the perfect fit for your wrist. Note the 23 mm lug width.

Water Resistance

This model offers a water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters - making it truly water-resistant. With its sporty character, it's ready to take the plunge with you into any aquatic adventure. From puddles to the swimming pool, this timepiece handles submersion without complaint. Showering, bathing, and lap swimming are all well within its comfort zone. That said, Ocarat's watchmaking experts want you to know that while this model is water-resistant, it is not designed for diving (professional or recreational) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend avoiding use of the crown or pushers while the watch is submerged.
