How to spot a counterfeit Tissot watch?

　　As a Swiss watch brand with a long history, there are many replica and counterfeit Tissot products on the market. To help you avoid purchasing fake goods, here is how you can verify the authenticity of a Tissot watch!

　　Identifying Tissot inspection marks

　　Currently, local trademark bureaus inspect batches of imported Tissot watches sold in major department stores and reputable collective or independent shops. Those that pass inspection are issued a certificate and a laser security hologram. Additionally, purchasing Tissot watches via personal shopping agents from overseas is quite popular, and buying from reputable sellers offers more peace of mind.

　　Identifying Tissot exterior details

　　Looking at the exterior of a Tissot watch: genuine models feature clear and complete dial and case back trademarks and lettering; the jewel count marked on the dial matches the actual jewel count inside the movement; the material of the case back matches the case material; the sapphire crystal is clear and spotless; the outer edges of the case components lack any sharp feel; and the plating is free of bubbles and does not peel.

　　Identifying Tissot movements

　　Looking at the movement of a Tissot watch: genuine Tissot movements feature the brand trademark inscribed on the bridges or oscillating weight; the movement is securely seated within the case; and the interior of the movement is clean.
