Tissot Seastar 1000 Quartz Chronograph 38mm Unisex Watch

Ref. T1202173306100

The Seastar 1000 line has always made a point of serious dive ratings without demanding a dive-watch wrist, and this 38mm version takes that argument furthest. Where the 45.5mm sibling is unambiguously a large tool watch, the smaller case opens the collection to wrists that the bigger format simply overwhelms, and Tissot positions it explicitly as unisex. The all-black PVD treatment — case, bracelet, bezel ring — makes the graded grey-black dial read with more contrast than the numbers alone suggest, and the double-sided antireflective coating on the sapphire means it stays readable at angles where uncoated glass would catch the light and obscure it. The chronograph here is more capable than its face implies: screw-down pushers, split function, a 1/10-second counter, and a battery end-of-life indicator that gives warning rather than just stopping. At 38mm with an 18mm lug width, it sits neatly on smaller wrists without the bracelet spreading beyond the case — which, at just under 13mm thick for a watch rated to 300 metres, is a genuinely compact profile for the depth it covers.
