Product Information
Full details
The Tissot T-Race Chronograph 38mm Gold is designed for motorsport enthusiasts and style-conscious individuals seeking a precise and durable timepiece. Its key benefit is the fusion of dynamic, racing-inspired aesthetics with reliable quartz chronograph functionality in a compact size. A potential caveat for some users might be the 38mm case size, which is smaller than typical men's watches but ideal for those preferring a more understated or unisex fit. This watch features a gold-tone design, a quartz movement for accuracy, and water resistance for everyday wear.

FAQs
What type of movement powers this watch?
The Tissot T-Race Chronograph 38mm Gold is powered by a precise quartz chronograph movement.
How water-resistant is this watch?
It has a water resistance of 100 metres (10 ATM), making it suitable for swimming and snorkeling but not for deep diving.
What material is the watch crystal made of?
The watch features scratch-resistant sapphire crystal glass for durability and clarity.
What does the 'chronograph' function do?
The chronograph function allows you to measure elapsed time. It typically includes a central seconds hand and sub-dials for minutes and hours, operated by pushers on the side of the case.
Is the strap interchangeable?
While specific interchangeability depends on the exact strap attachment mechanism, Tissot offers a range of compatible straps. Consult an authorized Tissot dealer for options.
How do I set the time and date?
Pull the crown out to the appropriate position (first for date, second for time) and turn to set. Always push the crown back in securely afterwards.
What is the warranty period for this Tissot watch?
Tissot watches typically come with a two-year international warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the warranty card included with your purchase for full details.
Troubleshooting
Watch is not running
The battery may be depleted. Contact an authorized Tissot service center for battery replacement. Ensure the crown is pushed in completely.
Chronograph not resetting to zero
The chronograph hands may need to be realigned. This usually requires a watchmaker. Contact an authorized Tissot service center for adjustment.
Condensation under the crystal
This indicates a breach in water resistance. Remove the watch from moisture immediately and have it inspected by an authorized Tissot service center to prevent internal damage.
Difficulty operating pushers
Ensure pushers are clean. If they feel stiff or stuck, do not force them. Seek professional servicing from an authorized Tissot dealer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The watch is pre-set with time and date. To set the time or date, pull the crown out to the first or second position (depending on the model and function) and turn. For chronograph functions, familiarize yourself with the pushers: typically, the top pusher starts/stops the stopwatch, and the bottom pusher resets it.
Compatibility: This is a standalone analog watch and does not have electronic compatibility requirements.
Care: To maintain the watch's appearance and functionality:
- Cleaning: Wipe the case and strap with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. The sapphire crystal can be cleaned with a mild glass cleaner.
- Water Resistance: Ensure the crown is pushed in before exposing the watch to water. Avoid operating the pushers when the watch is wet. Have the water resistance checked periodically, especially after a battery change.
- Strap: If the plastic strap becomes dirty, it can usually be cleaned with mild soap and water, then dried thoroughly. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can degrade plastic.
- Storage: Store the watch in its original box or a soft pouch when not in use to prevent scratches.
