150,00 €
A very rare brochure from Tissot's Sideral series, launched in 1969.
A Material Breakthrough In Watch Design by Tissot
Now one of man's most versatile new materials - fiberglass - is joined with traditional Swiss workmanship to create the most advanced concept in watch design.
Fiberglass has already replaced conventional metals when the requirements are exceptionally demanding. Fiberglass is rapidly becoming the standard in such high performance uses as sports car bodies, ocean going yacht hulls and skis. It is the material NASA scientists selected for the space suits worn by the Apollo XI astronauts.
Durable and corrosion free, this unique material also permits Tissot designers the opportunity to introduce color into their imaginative treatment of the case.
—Note how the bold stainless steel rim accents the color-coordinated dial and case.—And, within the shock-resistant, water-resistant case is caliber 784, the "unique caliber" Tissot automatic movement.
Fiberglass adds still another dimension to Sideral. Value. Though priced like a dependable second watch, Sideral is a precision instrument. And without a doubt way ahead in looks.
A collector's item for fans of this model. Rare.
