Tissot Titanium watches

Tissot Titanium covers the Swiss brand's watches cased in titanium rather than steel. Tissot was founded in Le Locle in 1853 by Charles-Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Émile, and is part of the Swatch Group.

At its heart is the Powermatic 80 Lady Titanium (T087.207), a round 32 mm, 10 mm thick automatic with a sapphire crystal. Tissot's Powermatic 80 is a Swiss self-winding movement with up to 80 hours of power reserve. The versions differ by dial and finish: black (T087.207.44.057.00), silver (T087.207.44.037.00) and white mother-of-pearl (T087.207.44.116.00) in plain titanium, and brown (T087.207.55.297.00) or white mother-of-pearl (T087.207.56.117.00) with gold PVD. The PVD versions are titanium underneath, with a gold-coloured coating rather than a gold case.

The outlier is the Titanium Quartz Chronograph (T069.417.47.051.00), a 43 mm watch with a black dial and sapphire crystal. Despite the larger diameter it stays slim at 10.92 mm, under a millimetre thicker than the 32 mm automatic.
