Baselworld Preview Tissot Visodate 1957 Automatic

Launched in 1953 to celebrate Tissot's 100th anniversary, the Visodate drew on a rich history of innovation. At the time, the integration of a date display into an automatic movement was a feat of virtuosity, which Tissot has brilliantly recaptured in this very beautiful contemporary version. While today's model benefits from cutting-edge technology and materials, its vintage spirit has been preserved with the Tissot date and logo from 1953.
