The ETA 2824-2 is a well-known Swiss automatic movement. In this watch it provides:
The important distinction is the COSC certification. This isn't simply a standard Le Locle Automatic: the T006.408.22.037.00 is designated as a chronometer, meaning the movement was tested and certified by COSC for accuracy under prescribed conditions.
The watch has a relatively conservative 39.3 mm diameter, which makes it a versatile size for a traditional dress watch. Its approximately 9.75 mm thickness also allows it to sit relatively neatly under a shirt cuff.
The case is stainless steel with yellow-gold PVD elements. The combination is continued onto the bracelet, giving the watch its two-tone silver-and-gold appearance.
The silver dial is one of the defining features of this Le Locle.
It has a guilloché/wave-pattern appearance, gold-tone hands and applied/index-style markers. Arabic numerals are used at 12, 3, 6 and 9, while the date window is positioned at 3 o'clock.
The overall design is intentionally traditional rather than sporty, making it particularly suitable with:
One of the advantages of this model at its price category is the sapphire crystal. Sapphire is highly scratch-resistant compared with mineral crystal and is a major reason the watch is suitable for long-term everyday wear.
The rear of the watch has a transparent/exhibition caseback, allowing the wearer to see the automatic movement. Tissot specifically lists the see-through caseback as one of the model's features.
The rating is 30 metres / 3 ATM.
