Vintage Tissot Bullseye, Swiss Mechanical Watch, Two-tone dial, Cal. 27 from 1940s
This vintage Tissot Bullseye dates to the 1940s and has original two-tone “bullseye” dial with a dark outer ring and a lighter central section. Over time, the dial has developed a natural, even patina that adds warmth and character without distracting from the layout.
The stainless steel case measures 35mm in diameter with a 43mm lug-to-lug length, offering bold vintage proportions that still wear comfortably today. At 10mm thick, the case has a solid presence while remaining well suited for everyday wear.
Inside is the manually wound Tissot Caliber 27, a reliable Swiss movement used by the brand throughout the 1940s. Overall, this is a well-preserved example of a classic Tissot, combining a distinctive bullseye dial with honest vintage character.
