Tissot is a Swiss watchmaker company founded in 1853.
Tissot has over 150 years of innovation in Swiss watch-making tradition, they were the first to make a watch out of plastic, mother of pearl, wood (the Wood watch) and stone (the Rock watch).
Tissot has become known in recent years for its tactile, or "T-Touch," technology; several new watches have touch-sensitive sapphire faces and include compasses, barometers, altimeters and thermometers. T-Touch watches have been recently featured in the movies and Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
Based in Le Locle, Switzerland and present in more than 150 countries around the world, Tissot has been, since 1985, a member of the The Swatch Group Ltd., the largest watch producer and distributor in the world.
