Tissot is a Swiss watch brand with a 168-year history. Tissot's watches are affordable, yet offer excellent design and quality. The fact that Tissot has been the official timekeeper of the NBA for many years is also a testament to their quality.
Tissot has created a special timepiece for the Brooklyn Nets of the NBA. The inspiration for the timepiece is the Brooklyn Nets' uniforms for the 2020-21 season, designed in honor of Brooklyn native Jean-Michel Basquiat.
Tissot Chrono XL Brooklyn Nets City Edition ¥50,600
The base model is the Tissot Chrono XL, a chronograph watch with a dynamic 45mm case diameter and three counters.
The dial is decorated with the letter "B" and a graphic of a crown, symbolizing Basquiat. The second hand is colored orange to complement the black dial.
The belt is embroidered with multicolored embroidery, following the coloring of the uniform of the "Brooklyn Nets" on which this work is based.
The stainless steel case is coated with PVD to express the atmosphere of Brooklyn and its unique urban culture. The antique design, which looks as if it has been used for a long time, seems to encompass the long history spun by Tissot, Basquiat, and the Brooklyn Nets.
As a symbol of this collaboration, the official logo of the "Brooklyn Nets" is engraved on the caseback.
The watch comes with a chic black leather strap, allowing the wearer to enjoy different styles depending on his or her mood.
The special edition, a bold expression of Brooklyn culture, goes on sale today, Friday, May 14.
