Founded in Le Locle, Switzerland in 1853, Tissot is not afraid to look to its back catalog for inspiration. Reviving a design from the mid-2000s, Tissot has tastefully updated its geometric design for contemporary tastes while maintaining their signature Swiss style.
The PRC 100 features a 39mm stainless steel case — available in both polish and black PVD-coated versions — with a new solar quartz movement. Its 100m of water resistance makes a compelling case for the RPC 100 as a budget-friendly go-anywhere, do-anything (GADA) watch for the masses. It is available in silver, blue, and black dials on a matching stainless steel bracelet or a leather strap.
The PRC 100 is powered by the new “Lightmaster” solar quartz caliber. A Swiss-made movement, it features solar cells distributed on the PRC 100’s dial. It utilizes an Accumulator type Panasonic CTL920F battery and is charged by natural and artificial light. The movement includes a date complication.

Originally called Chs Tissot & Fils, the brand we now simply refer to as “Tissot” was founded in 1853 by a Swiss father and son duo. In the 170 years since, Tissot has continued to grow and prosper, ranking among the top 20 Swiss watch brands globally. A champion of attainable luxury, Tissot watches offer Swiss quality and movements at approachable prices, while also being a regular innovator. Notably, they were the first brand with a 24-timezone automatic (the Navigator), the first with a plastic mechanical movement (the Astrolon), and the first with both analog and digital displays (the Two Timer).
In current times, Tissot continues to offer a wide range of styles, from sport to dress to just fun, a wide range of movements, from quartz to digital to mechanical, and even a wide range of materials, including steel, gold, and carbon. With such a diverse catalog, they make watches for everyone and are a great brand to keep coming back to over the years.
