Tissot launched its new generation concept boutique in The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, complemented with the exclusive debut of the Tissot Heritage Visodate Quartz collection inspired by the famous Tissot Visodate collection from the 1950s.

The exquisite Heritage Visodate Quartz collection provides an accessible, lightweight option for either one’s first timepiece or for everyday wear. The original Tissot Visodate was launched in the 1950s during its centenary celebrations. Deriving its name from a portmanteau of “Viso” and “date” aka “see the date”, the namesake translated the future of watchmaking in the 50s when timepieces were beginning to see the integration of a date display into previously time-only watches.

Thus, the new Heritage Visodate Quartz Collection recently debuted at the new Tissot concept boutique in The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands finds its roots and inspiration in the brand’s distinguished heritage and updates classic codes with recognisable retro-aesthetic yet eye-catching contemporary designs.

The gently-curved dial of the Tissot Heritage Visodate Quartz mirrors the domed sapphire glass, both designed to amplify the clear, visible date complication, belying the entry-level price tag for this sumptuous timepiece. Attention has been paid to every single detail, the new Visodate Quartz conveys its elegance and luxuriousness with faceted hands and indices. Historical Tissot logos on the dial, case back, crown and buckle appear on the latest Heritage Visodate, bridging the past and present. Beyond the face, the design of the case and horns are faithful to the original edition. Additionally, a Milanese or leather strap makes for an era accurate yet stylish statement.
