Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
The Everytime sits within Tissot's T-Classic family, a line built around the idea that a dress watch should get out of its own way. At 40mm across with a case thickness of just 7.07mm, it is remarkably flat — flat enough that it disappears beneath a shirt cuff without bunching the fabric, which is something that a significant number of steel-braceletted watches at this diameter will not do. The silver dial uses Roman numerals and black leaf hands, a combination that reads clearly without asking for attention. The ETA F06.412 inside is a Swiss-made three-jewel quartz calibre with one genuinely useful feature: when the battery runs low, the seconds hand begins jumping in four-second intervals rather than dying mid-dial, giving fair warning before the watch stops. The 11-row bracelet fastens with a dual-pushbutton butterfly clasp and the spring bars release without tools, so swapping to a leather strap for different occasions takes seconds rather than a trip to a watchmaker.

Learn more about Tissot
Charles-Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Émile founded the company in Le Locle in 1853, assembling gold pocket watches and, unusually for the time, exporting aggressively — Russia became a major market within a decade.
Tissot's history is a sequence of firsts achieved through willingness to try materials and ideas the establishment considered unserious. The first mass-produced pocket watch with two time zones came in 1853. The first anti-magnetic wristwatch in 1930. The Astrolon of 1971 was the first watch with a movement made largely of injection-moulded plastic, and it worked. The RockWatch of 1985 used Alpine granite for the case, followed by watches in wood and mother-of-pearl.
The T-Touch of 1999 was the most significant: a tactile sapphire crystal allowing the wearer to access altimeter, barometer, compass, thermometer, and chronograph by touching the glass, years before touchscreens were commonplace.
Tissot merged with Omega in 1930 and both became founding members of what is now the Swatch Group. Its position in the group is volume and accessibility — Swiss mechanical and quartz watches at prices most people can reach, with the Powermatic 80 movement offering an eighty-hour reserve at entry level.
The company has held timekeeping roles across cycling, basketball, motorsport, and fencing.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Will the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
What size strap does it take?
20mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Will it fit my wrist?
Lug-to-lug is 40mm, which suits wrists from roughly 15cm (6 inches) upward.
Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's, though at 40mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
