HISTORY & LORE
Founded in 1853 in Le Locle, Switzerland, Tissot has a rich heritage of Swiss watchmaking innovation. The PR 50 series ("Particularly Robust") became one of Tissot's most successful flagships of the late 20th century, combining slim Swiss elegance with everyday durability.
This specific model features a commemorative inscription dedicated to 40 years of service at Huta Katowice, one of Poland's largest historic steel production facilities, adding a unique industrial provenance to this classic Swiss timepiece.
