Tissot Chemin Des Tourelles Powermatic 80 Watch For Men - T099.407.16.058.00

Stainless steel 316L (Stainless Steel) is a very durable material that theoretically can not be destroyed. It is hard (non-bendable and non-crackable), color stable, antiallergic (does not react with body fluids and therefore no metal components are not released into the skin and flesh) and has anticorrosive surface (the surface is resistant to oxidation and corrosion. Moreover, it is also resistant to fresh and salt water).

Automatic watches with Powermatic 80 technology are powered by mechanical movement. They work on the principle of gradual opening of coiled springs. The energy of natural hand movements is transmitted through the rotor winding system, while wearing the watches, which automatically tightens the spring. Power reserve is up to 80 hours.

Leather is one of the most popular materials used in the manufacturing of Precision straps. It looks elegant, feels warm, and easily adapts to the wrist.

The watch displays the current date.

Watches marked with water tightness 50M/5ATM are designed for incidental contact with water (car wash, rain), but also for surface swimming without diving. 50M/5ATM indicates the degree of water resistance standardized by ISO 2281. ISO tests include temperature changes, depth, pressure (water and air) for different times under rest and during manipulation with the operative part of the watch.

Sapphire glass in the watch was made in a laboratory by melting aluminium oxide (Al2O3) in the presence of hydrogen and oxygen at 2000 °C. After crystallisation into the corundum 'pear', it's cut and further processed into the desired shape and size. Sapphire glass is the hardest glass used in watches. It would be second behind diamond on the scale of mineral hardness, so it can only scratched by diamond. Its only disadvantage is its fragility.
