Full details

The Tissot Le Locle Automatic watch is designed for individuals seeking an elegant and reliable timepiece that blends classic Swiss watchmaking heritage with modern design. Its key benefit is offering accessible luxury with sophisticated detailing and automatic movement. A potential caveat is its water resistance, limited to 3 bar (30 meters), making it unsuitable for swimming or diving.

FAQs

What type of movement does the Tissot Le Locle Automatic have?

It features a Swiss-made automatic movement, meaning it is powered by the motion of the wearer's wrist and does not require a battery.

How do I know if my watch needs winding?

If the watch stops running, or if you haven't worn it for over 38 hours, it will need to be wound. You can wind it manually by turning the crown or by shaking it gently.

Is this watch suitable for swimming?

No, the watch has a water resistance rating of 3 bar (30 meters), which is only sufficient for protection against splashes and light rain. It is not suitable for swimming or diving.

How often should the watch be serviced?

It is recommended to have automatic watches like the Tissot Le Locle serviced by a qualified watchmaker every 3 to 5 years to maintain optimal performance.

What is the case made of?

The case is made of stainless steel with a rose gold PVD coating.

What does 'guilloche' mean on the dial?

Guilloche refers to the intricate decorative engraving pattern on the dial, inspired by the clock on the Le Locle church tower in this specific model.

Can I change the watch bracelet?

Yes, while the original bracelet is fitted precisely, you can typically change it to a different compatible strap if desired.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped running

Manually wind the watch by turning the crown clockwise (20-30 turns) or shake it gently for 30 seconds to activate the automatic movement. Ensure the watch is being worn regularly or wound sufficiently.

Date is not changing correctly

Ensure you are not setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM. During this period, the date mechanism is engaged, and changing it manually can cause damage. Set the time past midnight to allow the date to change, then set the correct time and date.

Inaccurate timekeeping

Automatic watches can have a daily variation. If the inaccuracy is significant (more than +/- 15-20 seconds per day), consider having it serviced. Ensure the watch is fully wound.

Condensation under the crystal

This indicates that the water resistance may have been compromised. Remove the watch from humid environments immediately and have it inspected by a watchmaker. Do not attempt to open the case yourself.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup: Your Tissot Le Locle Automatic watch is powered by an automatic movement. To start it, gently shake the watch back and forth for about 30 seconds or manually wind the crown by turning it clockwise 20-30 times while it is in the closed position. Avoid over-winding.

Compatibility: This watch is designed as a standalone timepiece. It is compatible with standard watch straps should you wish to change the look, but the original bracelet is designed to fit the case perfectly.

Care Instructions:

Cleaning: Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Water Resistance: The watch is water-resistant up to 3 bar (30 meters), which means it can withstand splashes and light rain but is not suitable for showering, swimming, or diving.
Winding and Setting: To set the time, pull the crown out to its furthest position. To set the date, pull the crown to the middle position and turn it clockwise. Ensure you set the date correctly by advancing the time past midnight.
Servicing: It is recommended to have your watch serviced by a qualified watchmaker every 3-5 years to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the movement.
