With an impressive water resistance of up to 600 metres, an impressive design and a cutting-edge automatic movement, it offers everything the discerning diver and watch lover needs. Dive with us into the world of this exceptional watch that pushes the boundaries of possibility.
The plus sign in the Swiss flag in the Tissot logo symbolizes the Swiss quality and reliability that Tissot has demonstrated since 1853. Tissot has been named the official timekeeper and partner of many prestigious sporting events, and the great reputation of Tissot watches is also evidenced by the extraordinary personalities who have chosen Tissots - Elvis Presley, Grace Kelly, Nelson Mandela and many others.
Now Tissot introduces a rugged watch and the first ever certified diver's watch from Tissot equipped with everything you would expect from a professional diver's watch. Let's take a closer look at the new Tissot Seastar 2000 Professional Powermatic 80 watch, which you can order from us now.
As one of the most renowned Swiss brands, Tissot has always been synonymous with precision, quality and innovation. Swiss watches from this brand are characterised by uncompromising quality and meticulous craftsmanship in every detail. The Seastar 2000 Professional models consistently follow this tradition, adding bold design and state-of-the-art technology.
With a diameter of 46 mm and a thickness of 16.25 mm, this solid wristwatch is made of high-quality steel that can withstand even the harshest environments. The watch features a unidirectional rotating lunette with a ceramic insert with distinctive knurling for easy handlingwith gloves or wet hands. A feature that is absolutely essential for a diving watch.
The ceramic lunettesurface has several major advantages over conventional metal lunettes. First of all, even after years of intensive use , it shows no signs of wear, so you don't have to worry about the colour of the watch fading or getting scratched. Ceramic is also extremely resistant to corrosion, which is a key feature for watches that come into contact with salt water.
The Tissot Seastar 2000 Professional diving watch was designed for divers who work at considerable depths and face extreme conditions. For this type of use, the watch case is equipped with a helium valve located at 9 o'clock.
This technological gadget is designed specifically for use in saturation diving below 100 meters. When in pressurized chambers for long periods of time, helium may leak into the watch and cause damage to the watch during the decompression phase. The helium valve allows these gases to escape safely without compromising watertightness.
It also features a screw-down crown that does not let a drop of water through and provides water resistance up to a staggering 600 meters, far exceeding the needs of most recreational and professional divers. This exceptional water resistance places the Tissot Seastar 2000 Professional among the absolute top of the diving watch category.
The unique design of the dial reveals that this is a premium diver's watch. The designers have played with it and carved a pattern reminiscent of the waves of the sea. Every time you look at the watch , thoughts of stormy seas and the beauty of the mysterious ocean will be swept away. This look never gets old and gives the watch a unique character that sets it apart from the competition.
The dial, covered with a sapphire anti-reflective glass and with Super-Luminova-treated hands, guarantees excellent legibility even in the most demanding conditions. Super-Luminova is a high-end luminescent material that ensures perfect visibility of the indices and hands even in complete darkness or in murky waters, which is absolutely essential for a diving watch.
A nice bonus is the sapphire crystal on the case back, revealing the Powermatic 80 automatic movement with Nivachron, a balance spring that is resistant to magnetism. In this day and age full of electronic devices, this feature is extremely valuable, as magnetic fields can greatly affect the accuracy of a mechanical watch.
At the heart of the Tissot Seastar 2000 Professional is the advanced Powermatic 80 automatic movement. This automatic watch represents the pinnacle of current technological possibilities in the affordable luxury watch segment.
The Powermatic 80 movement features several significant innovations:
Unlike quartz watches, which are battery-powered, the Tissot Seastar 2000 Professional automatic watch is wound by the natural movement of the wrist. This traditional mechanical principle is complemented by modern technologies that ensure excellent accuracy and reliability.
For lovers of men's luxury watches, the sight of a working movement through the transparent caseback is a real treat. You can watch the precise interplay of gears, springs and weights that together create a small mechanical marvel on your wrist.
All in all, the Tissot Seastar 2000 Professional is a truly impressive watch , and at a price of £28,810 it even meets the strict ISO 6425 standards for dive watches. This standard sets exacting requirements for the durability, legibility, waterproofness and reliability of watches designed for diving.
Compared to other diving watches of similar specifications from renowned Swiss brands, the Tissot Seastar 2000 Professional represents excellent value for money. It offers the technical specifications and build quality that you would look for in some competing brands at much higher price points.
The Tissot Seastar collection has a long and rich history in the brand's portfolio. The first models appeared in the 1960s, at a time when diving was becoming a popular sport and the demand for reliable waterproof watches was growing.
Since then, the Tissot Seastar collection has undergone significant evolution, but has always remained true to its original mission - to provide highly functional diving watches with elegant design and at an affordable price. The latest Seastar 2000 Professional represents the pinnacle of this evolution.
What sets the Tissot Seastar collection apart from the competition:
Whether you are a professional diver looking for a reliable partner for challenging missions in the depths of the ocean, or a watch lover who appreciates robust design and Swiss quality, the Tissot Seastar 2000 Professional Powermatic 80 is the ideal choice.
This diving watch offers a combination of technical performance, aesthetics and prestige of a traditional Swiss brand that you will hardly find in similarly priced models. They meet the highest professional standards, while remaining affordable for the casual lover of quality watches.
Thanks to their robust construction, water resistance up to 600 meters and durable materials, you can rely on them even in the harshest conditions. At the same time, their elegant design with a wave pattern on the dial and precise details ensure that they will grace your wrist even on formal occasions.
