The Tissot Gentleman is a multi-purpose watch, both ergonomic and elegant in any circumstance. This 40 mm-diameter model shows Tissot's devotion to fine workmanship in its watchmaking, with carefully-wrought details. With a central marking in the shape of a circular sighting-line makes the dial easy to read and gives it a contemporary appearance. The ring of applique hour markers, bevelled and buffed to a satin finish, is accentuated by faceted dauphine hands with white luminescent material. The date aperture at 3 o'clock reveals the subtle elegance of the dial. A very slender second hand enables the time to be read with great precision, to the second. The "Powermatic 80 Silicium" indication is a reminder that the Gentleman has an exceptional calibre. This silicon balance-spring provides greater longevity, more precise running and greater resistance to magnetic fields. The self-winding movement has a very convenient power reserve of 80 hours, hence its name.
