Tissot Le Locle Roman Dial Stainless Steel Watch Appraisal

Tissot Le Locle Roman Dial Stainless Steel Watch

This is a Tissot wrist watch, likely a model from their Le Locle or a similar classic collection, presented in a stainless steel construction. The watch features a round case with a fluted or textured bezel, giving it a classic and somewhat elegant aesthetic. The dial is a clean, sunburst silver or white tone, adorned with black Roman numeral hour markers (II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, XII), while the 3 o'clock position is occupied by a date window displaying the number '17' on a white background. The brand name 'TISSOT' and '1853' are printed prominently below the 12 o'clock position, indicating the brand's founding year. Below the 6 o'clock marker, 'SWISS MADE' is visible in small print, affirming its origin. The hands appear to be a dauphine or leaf style in a polished silver tone, complementing the overall design. The watch is fitted with a three-link stainless steel bracelet, polished on the central links and brushed on the outer links, characteristic of many Tissot sports-dress watches. Visible condition issues include minor surface scratches and scuffs on the stainless steel case and bracelet, consistent with regular wear and age. There is no major damage or repair visible, and the crystal appears to be intact, though small reflections make it difficult to ascertain its exact condition without closer inspection. The crown is visible on the right side of the case, featuring a textured grip. This watch appears to be from the 2000s, possibly around the 2010 given the provided context.
