Tissots

Tissots is a surname of Swiss origin and may refer to various people bearing the name. The most well-known bearer is James Tissot (1836–1902), a French painter born Jacques-Joseph Tissot, noted for scenes of 19th-century Parisian society and later religious works.

Tissot also refers to the Swiss watch brand founded in Le Locle in 1853 by Charles-Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Émile Tissot. The firm developed into a major producer of Swiss watches, valued for craftsmanship and a broad price range. In the late 20th century, the Tissot brand became part of the Swatch Group, the world's largest watchmaker, and remains a prominent mid-range label within the group.

Tissot offers both quartz and mechanical models across diverse collections, including sport, fashion, and traditional lines. The brand is known for innovations such as tactile watches in its T-Touch line, which features a touch-sensitive interface for practical functions. Tissot maintains production and distribution worldwide, with a strong presence in Europe and Asia.
