Swiss Swatch Group, Tissot, founded in Switzerland in 1853, is an immortal Swiss watch brand in the watch world, a pioneer in watchmaking technology and innovative technology, and internationally renowned for its 24-time zone Voyager watches/plastic mechanical watches/touch screen watches  

In the mid-19th century, Tissot was founded in a small town called Le Locle, one of the birthplaces of Swiss watchmaking, and has since developed a rich and fascinating history.

Year 18537月1日，金箱装配工查理-费理西安•天梭与他的制表工匠儿子查理-艾米尔•天梭创建了Ch. Félicien Tissot & Fils（查理-费理西安•天梭父子）商行。当时，天梭的运作方式为établissage商行——这种制表方式是指一个高度专业化的独立工人网络在家中制造不同的钟表零件，然后零件在商行中进一步组装并出售。那时，天梭生产的时计是怀表、奢华项链挂表或制作复杂的wristwatch，主要销往美国——当时的首要市场。之后，俄罗斯成为品牌的主要出口国。

1917年底，Chs.Tissot & Fils SA（查理•天梭父子）有限公司成立，并在引入半成品机芯生产后转变为制造厂，数十年一直制造wristwatch。不久之后，天梭公司向全世界扩展业务。

In 1930, Tissot and Omega joined forces to form the first association of the Swiss watchmaking industry, SSIH (Swiss Watch Industry Association).

In the 70s of the 20th century, the Swiss watchmaking industry was severely affected by the quartz crisis. In 1983, Nicolas G. Hayek, who was tasked with reviewing the watchmaking industry, proposed a merger of the main watchmaking groups of the time: SSIH (Association of the Swiss Watch Industry, which mainly included Tissot and Omega) and ASUAG (Pan-Swiss Watch AG, the holding company of the manufacture of movements and semi-finished components). The group, known as SMH (Swiss company Microelectronics and Watch Industries), became The Swatch Group in 1998. In 1996, Tissot was handed over to François Timber.
