Tissot became the first company to introduce a mass-produced watch which offered complications like the chronograph functions at a low price. Soon, the majority of companies started to introduce their alternatives to Tissot’s novelty. The lot here offered is a chronograph inspired by Omega with a 38 mm case, with lots of scale on the dial. Preserved in great conditions, the stainless steel case has a snap on back and an uncommon pusher on the winding crown and the other olive one on the case. The sophisticated black dial is a real joy for the eyes for its color, its patina, its intricate composition with external tachymeter scale, inner spiral telemeter scale, Arabic numerals and the two subsidiary counter for constant seconds and 30 minutes registration.
