Of the four major American sports, basketball is the most followed, loved, practiced and inspiring of all.

In 2011, Tissot extends its alliance with the world of speed and becomes sponsor of another major motorcycling World Championship, World Superbike.

Rough, tough, but a French gentleman's game.

Itself deeply rooted in its own region of the Swiss Jura, Tissot is Official Timekeeper of Top 14, providing the league with an innovative, synchronized timing solution for all referees and public display.
