The Le Locle model is one of the most distinguished pieces from Tissot overall, as it was named after the company’s birthplace — Le Locle, Switzerland, established in 1853.
What makes this watch special is how the brand managed to offer exceptional value for its price. Although Tissot has released many models, this one stands out to me for several reasons:
First, it’s a truly classic timepiece that gives you the feeling of wearing something much more expensive than it actually costs. This comes down to two key details:
The dial features a guilloché pattern, a fine engraving technique usually found in high-end watches.
The case size is 39.3 mm, which wears beautifully on the wrist and is a size often used in luxury dress watches.
The hands and Roman numerals also play with light — shifting between black and steel tones depending on illumination — which adds even more elegance to the overall look.
Inside, the watch houses the ETA 2824-2 movement, a highly regarded Swiss automatic calibre known for its accuracy and reliability.
It features 25 jewels, beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour, and supports both manual and automatic winding, with a power reserve of about 40 hours.
This movement is so robust that many other brands have used it directly, while others modified it and rebranded it with their own logos.
Full movement details can be found here:

The case back is transparent, revealing the movement, with a beautiful engraving that’s exclusive to the Le Locle line.
💰 The average market price ranges between $450–$500, depending on condition, while the new retail price in Egypt is around 30,000 EGP.
Overall, this is an excellent choice — whether you’re a collector looking for a refined dress watch that offers incredible value, or a beginner looking to start your automatic watch journey with a timeless and reliable piece. ✅
