Tissot PRC 100 Solar Quartz 34mm Blue Ladies Watch

Ref. T1518221135100

The PRC 100 dates to the mid-2000s and has returned with its original silhouette intact, now paired with Tissot's Lightmaster movement — a solar system that draws energy through the underside of the sapphire crystal itself, which is why the dial can be finished properly rather than dominated by a visible cell. On a full charge the reserve runs to 14 months; if the watch has been kept in the dark for that long, the seconds hand begins jumping in four-second increments to tell you so. At 34mm the case reads larger on the wrist than that diameter implies, owing to a 44.6mm lug-to-lug span that gives it genuine presence without pushing into territory that sits awkwardly on a narrower wrist. The sunburst blue dial shifts register depending on the light — cooler and more subdued indoors, brighter in daylight — and the Super-LumiNova on the hands and indexes means it remains legible long after the sun has done its work charging the movement.
