The Tissot Seastar has always been a great option for anyone looking to purchase an entry diver from a brand with true history and heritage, I would also argue it's a great watch for any collector who wants a good-looking piece at an affordable price! It ticks so many boxes and I know will sit nicely with most collections, so snatch it up and add it to your watch box.
The Brand
The Swiss luxury watch company Tissot from Le Locle, Switzerland, was established in 1853 by Charles Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Emile. Under Charles-Emile’s direction, they manufactured pocket watches with parts from Russia and the United States. In 1915, the company began producing wristwatches. Between 1920 and 1977, Tissot produced its own movements. In 1930 to survive the 1929 crash and economic crisis they entered into an agreement with Omega to form the SSIH Group which 53 years later became the Swatch Group.
