The Tissot Ballade (ref. t1562081103300) is an automatic dress watch, with a 30mm stainless steel case, 10.55mm thick, powered by the Powermatic 48 movement and a 48-hour power reserve. Water resistance is rated to 100m, under a sapphire crystal. Manufacturer MSRP is $1,100. The dial color is silver.
Owners widely praise the Tissot Ballade for its immaculate quality and design relative to its price point, with specific commendations for its dial, fluted bezel, and Jubilee bracelet. Reviewers highlight its value proposition, noting COSC certification and robust construction with quality movement technology, including a silicon balance spring and up to an 80-hour power reserve. While the 41mm case is considered wearable due to its thinness, some owners and reviewers prefer 39mm proportions. The leather strap and butterfly clasp draw criticism, though one review mentions quick-release tabs on the bracelet. One commenter notes the quartz movement as a significant drawback, preferring an automatic option. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Tissot Ballade a strong value, particularly for its design and chronometer-certified movement under $1,000.
