The Tissot T-Touch is Tissot's line of solar-charged connected watches in titanium, which began in 1999 with what Tissot presented as the first tactile watch. La Maison Monaco carries more than 10 Tissot T-Touch watches in Canada, from $1,395 to $1,660 CAD, across two families, the Connect Sport and the Connect Solar. We are an authorized Tissot dealer in Canada, with Connect Solar watches available to order, and Flexiti financing on approved credit.
The Tissot T-Touch is a family of connected watches that pair a titanium case with a solar-charged quartz module and phone functions. Tissot dates the line from 1999. The two families we carry are the Connect Solar, announced in 2020, and the Connect Sport, announced at the end of 2023.
What is the difference between the Tissot T-Touch Connect Sport and Connect Solar?
The Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar is the larger, fully equipped model, and the Connect Sport is the newer, smaller one. Tissot lists the Connect Solar at 47.5 mm and 15.3 mm thick, with a ceramic bezel, a tactile sapphire crystal, a compass, an altimeter, a barometer and 100 m water resistance. The Connect Sport has a 43 mm titanium case and is water resistant to 50 m (5 bar), and reviewers note it drops the compass, altimeter and barometer. At La Maison Monaco the Connect Sport runs from $1,395 to $1,575 and the Connect Solar from $1,495 to $1,660.
How is the Tissot T-Touch charged, and does it work with iPhone and Android?
The Tissot T-Touch is charged by light, and the Connect Solar launch press release says it works with both iOS and Android phones. That release gives up to 6 months in connected mode for the Connect Solar, depending on use and sun. For the Connect Sport, Tissot says about 20 minutes of sunlight a day keeps the watch running indefinitely in non-connected mode, as quoted by aBlogtoWatch. Battery life depends on how much light the watch gets.

Should I choose the Tissot T-Touch Connect Sport or the Connect Solar?+
Choose the Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar, at 47.5 mm, for the compass, altimeter, barometer and 100 m water resistance. Choose the Tissot T-Touch Connect Sport for a smaller 43 mm titanium case, 50 m water resistance and a lower price, from $1,395 CAD. Both are solar-charged and work with iOS and Android phones.
How is the Tissot T-Touch different from the Tissot PRX?+
The Tissot T-Touch is a connected, solar-charged titanium watch with fitness and phone functions, while the Tissot PRX is a Swiss sports watch with an integrated bracelet, offered in quartz and Powermatic 80 automatic. Choose the Tissot T-Touch for tracking features and notifications, and the Tissot PRX for a classic watch with no screen.
Is the Tissot T-Touch water resistant?+
Yes. Every Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar at La Maison Monaco is water resistant to 100 m (10 bar), and every Tissot T-Touch Connect Sport to 50 m (5 bar). Both handle rain and hand washing. Neither is a dive watch, so for time in the water the 100 m Connect Solar is the sturdier choice. Each product page confirms the rating of its exact reference.
