Tissot’s latest collection of watches has arrived just in time (no pun intended) for Christmas. So, if you’ve been looking for the ultimate gift, the search is over, as we’re certain there’s no one on your list who wouldn’t want one. And yes, self-gifting is a thing, so there’s every reason to treat yourself.

It all began for Tissot back in 1853. Nestled in the Swiss mountains of Le Locle, the brand began its journey to become the iconic, world-famous name that it is today. Over its 170 years, Tissot has created many incredible collections and pieces. One of which was the original 1978 PRX. Now, building on the history of this innovative, and super popular watch, Tissot has launched the new PRX 25mm collection with five new models.

The new PRX collection is evocative of the iconic style of the late '70s and inspired by Tissot’s original 1978 PRX. Sophisticated and versatile, these fresh designs are a perfect balance of classic style and contemporary chic. With this collection, Tissot has created the ideal every day and every occasion watch. These stunning pieces really are the ultimate accessory.

Watches are available in several finishes, including stainless steel as well as fashion-forward plated carnation gold. The iconic tapered tonneau case remains central. And the vibrant colour palette perfectly captures the vintage charm and 70s-inspired look.

The PRX 25mm collection is full of character. Three of the watches feature stunning sunburst dials in ice blue, black, or nude, with the black and nude options sparkling with diamond hour markers, which adds a touch of brilliance.

Our favourite? The version with the nude dial, with its PVD carnation gold case and bracelet. Other pieces in the collection have the delicate shimmer of mother-of-pearl dials, one framed by a stainless-steel bezel and the other with a rose gold PVD bezel for a subtle contrast. All five timepieces are a celebration of personal style and individuality.

Beautiful as the PRX collection is, this is Tissot, so functionality and accuracy are a given. You will be on time, and if you are not, you most definitely cannot blame your watch. Powered by a reliable quartz movement with an End of Life (EOL) function, you are guaranteed accuracy and durability. They even boast water resistance up to 10 bar, so come summer you can even wear it by the pool without worry.

There’s something special, significant, and unforgettable about gifting or receiving a watch. So why not make someone’s Christmas one to remember?
