Women have been wearing for the past few years the large timepieces of their man and not without a certain arrogance. They went even further in acquiring themselves anything but feminine watches to put on their wrist… as a statement we suppose. Time has come for a change.

In 1971, well before the famous Swatch appeared in 1983, Tissot revolutionized watchmaking with the introduction of its Astrolon, aka IDEA 2001. It was the world’s first mechanical watch entirely produced in plastic, movement included.

Several elements of the industrial revolution were involved in and led to the production of the Sistem51. These include: ensuring permanent quality as well as better precision than what the COSC rules, regulating production continuously, involving employees in operational decisions, and mastering each and every stage of the production of watch components and external parts.
