The Tissot Seastar line debuted in the 1950s, blending elegant design with robust water resistance, making it a versatile choice for both dress and sport. Over the decades, it evolved to include diving and world time models, like the Navigator T12, reflecting Tissot’s commitment to innovation and accessible Swiss craftsmanship.

What's on Offer

We're thrilled to present this Tissot Navigator Seastar T12, a truly striking vintage world timer dating to around 1970, and a fantastic example of Tissot’s talent for functional design with a bold aesthetic twist. Housed in a solid polished stainless steel case, this is a watch built for globetrotters and design aficionados alike.

The real star of the show is the two-tone dial, which cleverly divides the 24-hour scale into contrasting day and night segments, allowing for easy tracking of multiple time zones via the rotating inner bezel, operated by the second crown. The crisp city ring, with destinations from Greenwich to Auckland, completes the classic 1970s travel aesthetic, while the zingy orange seconds hand and minimalist rectangular hour markers lend a punch of modernist flair. 

Powered by the reliable Tissot Calibre 788, a 21-jewel automatic movement with a 45-hour power reserve, this piece is running beautifully and comes in superb preowned condition. The steel bracelet is also in good shape. 

This is certainly no wall flower and and is sure to pique the interest of many with its solid presence on the wrist. A worthy addition to any collection.
