When Vital Thiébaud set his Tissot chronograph whirring during a ski race in the Swiss ski resort of Villars-sur-Ollon 84 years ago, he began a sports timekeeping story that the Swiss watch company is still writing today. Now, Tissot recalls Thiébaud’s first chronograph button push with a chronograph of 1938. The Telemeter 1938 has a design inspired by the glory days of sports timekeeping and that beats to the rhythm of a state-of-the-art new mechanical movement.
Tissot has chosen the Telemeter 1938 to house the newly upgraded Valjoux A05.231 automatic chronograph calibre. This is now equipped with a highly durable Nivachron balance spring and an extended 68-hour power reserve. It’s finished off with a new Tissot Heritage rotor design.
The Tissot Telemeter 1938 serves as a highly sophisticated, supremely wearable symbol of a rich sports timekeeping history that began in the Alps and continues today with basketball’s NBA, cycling’s Tour de France, and motorsport's MotoGP, to name but a few of the professional sports that rely on Tissot’s legendary timekeeping expertise.
