The history of Tissot
Chs Tissot & Fils was founded in 1853 in Le Locle, in the Jura in Switzerland, by the father-son duo Charles-Félicien Tissot and Charles-Émile Tissot, born and raised there. Like most Swiss watchmakers founded at the time, Tissot started out as a comptoir, an assembler of parts sourced from individual makers in the region. In that first year, the company supplied between 1100 and 1200 watches to the region around Le Locle.

In 1858, the younger Tissot, Charles-Émile, left for Russia and, with the Tsar's blessing, sold Tissot pocket watches throughout the empire. Between 1860 and 1875, in addition to finished watches, Tissot also produced spare parts and watch tools, among other small items.

Also noteworthy is that throughout the period of the late 1800s, Tissot received numerous awards and prizes at various industrial exhibitions. Among the prizes won were the Diploma of Honor in Zurich in 1888, the Grand Prix and Gold Metal in Antwerp in 1890, the Grand Prix in Paris in 1900, and the First Prize for Chronometers and for Marine Chronometers in the Concours de l 'Observatoire de Neuchâtel in 1907.

Charles-Émile's son Charles was at the end of the 1880s based in Russia. His son Paul was born in 1890, and daughter Marie in 1897. Both Paul and Marie would play an important role in the management of Tissot, with Paul looking after the general affairs with his father and Marie taking care of the day-to-day management of the company. would take.

In 1918, Tissot reorganized the workshops, turning them from a factory into a manufacturing company. The company made timepieces in its own factory and began mass production.

Times change, names change
As ownership of the company changed and passed from father to son (and behind the scenes, daughter), so did the name. In 1865 the company became Charles-Emile Tissot & Fils. In 1917 the name changed again, to Chs. Tissot & Fils - SA.

In 1930 and the new partnership with Omega, Tissot went under the SSIH banner, and in 1976 the name Tissot Marché Suisse SA appeared. Finally, in 1982, Tissot did business under the formal name Tissot SA.

Named after the street in Le Locle where the Tissot factory was founded in 1907, Tissot Chemin des Tourelles watches were already an important collection for Tissot. Now this Helvetic Pride Special Edition emphasizes the central place that Switzerland occupies for the brand. Helvetia, the female national embodiment of Switzerland, is proudly depicted on the back of the case, depicting a Swiss franc, surrounded by 23 stars symbolizing the states of the Swiss Confederation. A fitting edit in a year with new Swiss Made rules. The dial of the men's version is decorated with the Swiss cross, while the women's model is subtly finished with beautiful mother-of-pearl from excellent watches. The company honors that knowledge with a special Helvetic Pride Special Edition.
