Description
The Tissot Ballade 40 mm (reference T1564101104100) is a quartz-powered dress watch with a blue dial and stainless steel bracelet, built on the Swiss watchmaker's 170-year tradition of accessible precision. Since 1853, Tissot watches have combined Swiss engineering with approachable pricing, and the Ballade collection continues that lineage with refined detailing and reliable timekeeping.
Case & crystal
The round stainless steel case measures 40 mm in diameter and 8.25 mm in thickness, topped by a fluted stainless steel bezel that catches the light with each wrist movement. A sapphire crystal protects the dial, offering scratch resistance far superior to mineral glass.
Dial
The blue dial is finished with a guilloché pattern beneath a sunray finish, creating depth and texture that shifts as the angle changes. Applied hour markers stand proud of the dial surface, and luminescent hands ensure legibility in low light. A date window sits at three o'clock.
Movement
A quartz movement powers the watch, delivering accuracy within seconds per month and eliminating the need for daily winding. This calibre is a practical choice for wearers who value precision without the ritual of a mechanical movement.
Bracelet & fit
The stainless steel bracelet matches the case material and integrates seamlessly with the lugs. The bracelet can be sized to suit a range of wrist circumferences, and our team can adjust the fit in-store.
On the wrist
The 40 mm diameter and 8.25 mm thickness suit medium to larger wrists, sitting comfortably under a shirt cuff for business or formal settings. The guilloché dial and fluted bezel lend the watch a dressier character than a plain sports model, making it well-suited to office wear and evening occasions.
Water resistance
Rated to 100 metres, the case will withstand splashes, rain and brief immersion, but it is not designed for swimming or water sports. Among Swiss watches at this price point, 100-metre resistance is a practical standard. The watch is covered by a 2-year international Tissot warranty, and our watch servicing and repairs team can assist with battery changes and routine maintenance.
Visit our Mall of the South and Greenstone showrooms to try the Ballade on the wrist and assess the fit in person.

FAQ
Yes. The stainless steel bracelet can be adjusted by removing or adding links. Bring the watch to either of our showrooms and our team will size it to your wrist at no charge.
Quartz movements typically run for two to three years on a single battery, depending on usage. When the watch stops or the second hand begins to jump in multi-second intervals, it is time to replace the battery. We can handle battery changes in-store.
Sapphire crystal is one of the hardest materials used in watchmaking, second only to diamond. It resists scratches from keys, desk edges and other common contact points. Only materials of equal or greater hardness—such as diamond or corundum—will mark it.
The 100-metre water resistance will protect the watch from splashes, rain and brief immersion, but it is not designed for swimming, diving or prolonged submersion. Avoid operating the crown while the watch is wet, and do not expose it to hot water or steam, which can compromise the seals.
Guilloché is a decorative technique that engraves fine, repetitive patterns into the dial surface. On this Ballade model, the guilloché sits beneath a sunray finish, creating a layered texture that changes appearance as light moves across it.
Yes. The 40 mm case, blue guilloché dial and fluted bezel give the watch a refined, dress-oriented character that suits formal milestones. The quartz movement requires minimal maintenance, making it a practical choice for a recipient who may not own a mechanical watch.
Warranty
Supplied with the 2-year international Tissot warranty, valid when purchased from an authorised retailer and registered at purchase through Cassims & Co. The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship; it does not cover normal wear, batteries, straps, glass, or damage from misuse or water ingress through an unscrewed crown.
Our watch service centre in Johannesburg handles warranty work, batteries, bracelet sizing and servicing.
Care guide
- Wipe the stainless steel case and bracelet with a soft, lint-free cloth after wear to remove perspiration, dust and oils that can dull the finish over time.
- Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields (speakers, laptops, magnetic clasps), which can interfere with the quartz movement's accuracy.
- Do not operate the crown or push any buttons while the watch is wet or submerged, as moisture can enter the case and damage the movement.
- Have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker as soon as the watch stops; a depleted battery left inside the case can leak and corrode the movement.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use, and avoid leaving it on surfaces that may scratch the sapphire crystal or case.
- Bring the watch to our servicing team every few years to have the seals inspected and the case checked for water resistance, especially if you wear it in wet conditions regularly.
