Historical significance
Tissot Chemin des Tourelles 40 mm Green Platinum sits within Tissot's Chemin des Tourelles line, introduced in 2015. It carries the house codes established since 1853 — platinum 950 case, green sunburst dial and automatic, 38-hour reserve — and is one of the references collectors use to date the evolution of the collection.
Interesting facts
- The case is finished by hand, alternating polished and satin-brushed surfaces in a single pass so the edges stay razor sharp.
- The movement's bridges are decorated even where they will never be seen once the watch is cased.

Brand history
Tissot has spent more than 173 years refining a single idea: a watch should outlive its owner. From the earliest workshop pieces to today's PRX, the house has balanced technical ambition with a recognisable design language, and its collections remain among the most closely followed by collectors worldwide.
Charles-Félicien Tissot established Tissot in 1853, working from Switzerland at a time when precision was measured by hand. The founder's obsession with finishing and accuracy still defines every Tissot calibre produced today.
