Since its first introduction in the year 2000, the T-Touch has never ceased to innovate, introducing new materials for its cases, dials and straps, combining the latest materials and colours to create cutting-edge designs. The T-Touch retains the same key precision functions, activated via the tactile crystal.
The T-Touch Expert, with an enlarged case diameter to make a bold design statement, comes in different model variations with carbon or white dials and either a leather or rubber strap, or titanium bracelet. A particularly eye-catching version has a white dial and a white rubber strap. Additional innovative features are the altitude difference meter, the relative pressure and the azimuth (heading).

Tissot T-Touch Expert Functionality Overview:
Barometer
This forecasts meteorological changes with the hands (storm, stable or sunny) and shows the absolute atmospheric pressure and the adjustable relative pressure on the LCD (hPa).
Altimeter
Indicates the present elevation above sea level in a choice of either feet or meters.
Altitude Difference Meter
This operates like a stopwatch and shows the elapsed time, cumulative gains and losses in altitude (in feet or meters), plus the mean vertical speeds of ascent and descent (in feet per minute or meters per minute). It is perfect for measuring vertical movement during mountain treks.
Chronograph
A timing facility with ADD (cumulative) and SPLIT functions to a precision of 1/100 of a second.
Timer
The Timer is a countdown that can be set in hours, minutes and seconds.
Compass
The compass shows the geographic North by using the magnetic North and the adjustable East and West declination.
Azimuth (Heading)
By adjusting the azimuth, the T-Touch Expert indicates the heading which is shown at 12 o’clock. The minutes’ hand shows the North.
Dual alarm
The two 24-hour alarms are easy to use with an audible signal.
Thermometer (in ºC and ºF)
The exact outside temperature is shown in the LCD in either °Celsius or °Fahrenheit. The temperature displayed, relates to the watch case and is influenced by our body temperature. For a correct reading of the ambient temperature, the watch should be removed for a period of 15 to 30 minutes.
A perpetual calendar and 2 time zones can be read on a 12-hour or 24-hour scale to suit the wearers’ personal preferences. The integrated backlight completes the functionality spectrum to ease legibility.
