Tissot Classic Dream 2012 — Case & Dial with Roman Numerals

The 2012 Tissot Classic Dream presents an elegant stainless steel case measuring 38 mm in diameter with a 46 mm lug-to-lug span, delivering balanced proportions suitable for both daily wear and formal occasions. The polished surfaces, softened by subtle curves, catch the light without overwhelming the classic profile. Its deep black dial serves as a striking backdrop for refined Roman numeral hour markers, exuding an aura of traditional Swiss dress watch design. A framed date aperture at 3 o’clock adds practicality, while the overall layout is kept symmetrical and uncluttered. Completing the package is the original full-length stainless steel bracelet, offering durability and an integrated aesthetic that enhances the watch’s refined character.

Tissot Classic Dream — Dial Layout and Finishing

The black dial’s smooth finish emphasizes the contrast of the crisp white Roman numerals, aiding in legibility and adding to its timeless appeal. Slim silver-tone hands complement the markers, maintaining visual harmony. The “Tissot 1853” branding at 12 o’clock and “Swiss Made” inscription at 6 o’clock reflect the brand’s heritage in vintage Swiss watchmaking, while the date window’s discreet beveling demonstrates attention to finishing details.

Quartz Caliber ETA F06.111

Inside this Classic Dream beats the Swiss-made ETA F06.111 quartz movement, a dependable caliber renowned for accuracy, low maintenance, and longevity. Operating at ±10 seconds per month, it features an End-of-Life (EOL) indicator, where the seconds hand moves in four-second jumps when the battery nears depletion. Its slim architecture allows the case to retain its refined dress profile while housing robust engineering. The movement’s 3-hand configuration with date complication is practical and efficient, representing Swiss precision timekeeping at its most accessible.

Accuracy and Service History

Fully serviced and ready to wear, this watch will provide reliable performance for years to come. The ETA F06.111 has been tested for full functionality, including date changeover and EOL feature operation. The crown winds and sets smoothly, confirming the mechanical integrity of the movement and ensuring lasting dependability.
