Still with the original strap and buckle, this Tissot Swiss Pack dress watch looks to to be very original. Model reference F385.
HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
Tissot started using this movement in 1985, a couple of years after they stopped putting serial numbers on their watches. This does make them harder to date, but the advertising around 1990 lead on the Swiss Pack logo, so we think this watch was made circa 1990.
CONDITION
The watch is in very good order, as you would expect from something that has had an easy life. The plating is faultless, as is the sapphire crystal – a major selling point on the Swiss Pack Tissot watches, as this highly scratch resistant crystals had not yet been widely adopted. The leather strap is the original from new, and still has the signed buckle. It is barely worn, as shown in the video. The movement is the ETA 955.412, which was widely adopted by many brands including TAG Heuer, Gucci, Zenith and of course Tissot. It is working perfectly, including the quick set date at 6. We will install a brand new battery before sending the watch out to the new owner.
This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.

From 1st September 2021 we will be planting a tree for every watch we sell, working with the International Tree Foundation (Est 1922) to make this business positive on carbon. By buying anything pre owned you are effectively reusing what already exists, but this takes it further and makes us feel good.
