Stepping up in the same colour and case shape

The PR 100 has been Tissot's everyday workhorse since the 1960s, and this edition marks the brand's continuing partnership with the Jungfraubahn, the rack railway that climbs to one of the highest train stations in the world. The connection is quiet but genuine: the Jungfrau peaks are engraved into the dial just above six o'clock, the hands and indices run in deep blue against silver, and the caseback carries the inscription "Jungfrau – Top of Europe." It is a commemorative watch that earns its theme without making a display of it. At 8.25mm thick across a 40mm case, this sits notably flat for its rating — the kind of profile that disappears under a shirt cuff and wears comfortably through a long day without announcing itself. The three-link bracelet integrates cleanly into the case and fastens with a push-button butterfly clasp; straps can be swapped without tools, which gives the watch a different character entirely on leather or rubber. The ETA F06.115 inside will alert you to a dying battery before it fails outright, the seconds hand shifting to four-second jumps — a small but genuinely useful detail in a movement you might otherwise forget is there.

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.

1853: Founded in Le Locle by Charles-Félicien and Charles-Émile Tissot.
1930: Merges with Omega; releases the first anti-magnetic wristwatch.
1971: The Astrolon uses a plastic movement.
1985: The RockWatch is cased in Alpine granite.
1999: The T-Touch introduces a tactile sapphire crystal.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Can I swim with it?

Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.

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 47mm, which suits wrists from roughly 16cm (6¼ 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.
