Tissot - Military Bullseye - No Reserve Price - Men - 1945

Tissot – Military Bullseye – Swiss Iconic Brand – 1940s A rare and historically significant Tissot Military Bullseye from the 1940s, a timepiece that combines military utility with timeless Swiss craftsmanship. This watch features a 35 mm jumbo case, large for its era, with an Acryl glass that protects its distinctive silver and brown bullseye dial, showing natural signs of age and patina that highlight its authenticity. At its core, the watch houses a precise Swiss mechanical Tissot movement, offering hours, minutes, and central seconds functions. It is fitted with a generic leather strap suitable for wrists up to 22 cm. Condition is Grade B, with signs of use consistent with its 80-year age, but overall in solid vintage condition. A generic box is included. Story: The bullseye dial design was particularly popular in the 1940s, offering enhanced readability and a bold aesthetic that appealed to both military and civilian users. For Tissot, this period marked an important chapter in producing robust wristwatches that could withstand the demands of wartime service while maintaining elegance off the battlefield. The jumbo 35 mm case makes this model especially desirable, as most watches of the 1940s were considerably smaller. Its bullseye dial, with concentric contrasting tones, gives it a striking presence and makes it highly collectible today. For enthusiasts of military-style watches and Swiss horological history, this Tissot represents a rare and important piece. Express Delivery via UPS Express Internal Reference Number - AL 358
