Introducing Tissot Unveils The 2025 T-Race MotoGP Automatic Chronograph

You’ve probably seen Tissot’s name at many sporting events, from cycling and fencing to ice hockey, and even in motorsports, where it has sponsored Formula One racing teams like Lotus, Renault, and Sauber. In 2001, Tissot became the Official Timekeeper of MotoGP, which is what we are focusing on today. 

Building on this partnership, Tissot introduced the T-Race collection in 2013, capturing the adrenaline of motorcycle racing through bold design cues. From a brake disc-inspired bezel to pushers modeled after handlebars and engine cooling fins on the case sides, every detail echoes MotoGP’s spirit. This year, Tissot takes it up a notch with the 2025 T-Race MotoGP Automatic Chronograph, featuring an openworked dial to celebrate over two decades of partnership.

The watch comes in a 316L stainless steel case with black PVD coating, measuring 45mm in diameter and 14.79mm in thickness. The bezel, as mentioned, is designed to resemble a brake disc with slots and six screws. The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating, while the see-through caseback offers a glimpse into the watch's intricate mechanics. The timepiece is water-resistant up to 100 meters, making it suitable for various conditions.

The openworked dial reveals the movement beneath, framed by a blue tachymeter scale. At the 3 o’clock position lies a 30-minute subdial, while the small seconds subdial is located at 9 o’clock. The hands and applied indices are coated with Super-LumiNova, ensuring readability in low-light conditions. Notably, the dial includes a 12-hour chronograph counter at 6 o'clock that lacks its own track, which may impact readability.

Powering the watch is the Valjoux A05.951, an automatic chronograph movement operating at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz) and offering a power reserve of 68 hours. The watch is paired with a black silicone strap, featuring textures inspired by motorcycle engine parts.

This model is limited to 2,025 pieces, with each watch presented in a helmet-shaped box. It is priced at USD 2,095, approximately equivalent to AED 8,000.
