Description
The Tissot PRC 200 Chronograph in black PVD-coated stainless steel is a purposeful sports watch engineered for precision and performance. With its bold 43mm case, tachymeter-engraved bezel, and highly legible chronograph subdials, this Swiss-made quartz timepiece delivers professional functionality in a striking, all-black aesthetic. The PRC 200 collection stands for Performance, Robustness, and Character — three pillars embodied in this technically accomplished chronograph.
Powered by a Swiss quartz chronograph movement, the PRC 200 offers split-second accuracy and reliable timekeeping without the need for daily winding. The 316L stainless steel case is treated with a deep black PVD coating for enhanced scratch resistance and a contemporary stealth appearance. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the black dial, which features luminescent hands and hour markers for excellent low-light visibility. Water-resistant to 20 bar (200 metres), this watch is built to withstand the demands of active lifestyles, from the boardroom to the weekend.
At Cassims & Co., we are proud to be an authorised Tissot retailer, ensuring that every timepiece carries the full manufacturer's warranty and genuine Swiss quality. Whether you're timing laps at the track or coordinating meetings across time zones, the PRC 200 Chronograph is a versatile companion. The matching black PVD bracelet features a secure deployment clasp and can be professionally sized to your wrist by our in-house team.

FAQ
Q: Is the Tissot PRC 200 Chronograph suitable for swimming and diving?
A: Yes. With 20 bar (200 metres) water resistance and a screw-down crown and caseback, this watch is suitable for recreational swimming, snorkelling, and shallow-water diving. It is not recommended for deep-sea diving or high-impact water sports.
Q: What is PVD coating and why is it used on this watch?
A: PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) is an advanced coating process that bonds a thin layer of material to the stainless steel case and bracelet. The black PVD coating enhances scratch resistance, provides a distinctive stealth aesthetic, and offers superior durability compared to standard plating.
Q: How often does the battery need to be replaced in this quartz chronograph?
A: Swiss quartz movements typically require battery replacement every 2-4 years, depending on usage of the chronograph function. Cassims & Co. offers battery replacement services performed by trained watchmakers to ensure water resistance is maintained.
Q: Can the bracelet be resized to fit my wrist?
A: Absolutely. Our in-house team can professionally resize the PVD-coated stainless steel bracelet to ensure a perfect fit at the time of purchase. Bracelet sizing is complimentary when you buy from Cassims & Co.
Q: What does the tachymeter scale on the bezel do?
A: The tachymeter scale allows you to measure average speed over a known distance. Start the chronograph at the beginning of a measured kilometre, stop it at the end, and the chronograph hand will point to your average speed in kilometres per hour on the tachymeter scale.
Q: Is this watch an authorised Tissot product with a valid warranty?
A: Yes. Cassims & Co. is an authorised Tissot retailer. This watch comes with a 2-year international Tissot warranty from the date of purchase, covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from an authorised dealer.
Q: Does Cassims & Co. offer nationwide delivery?
A: Yes. We offer secure nationwide delivery across South Africa. Your watch will be tracked during transit and delivered in its original Tissot presentation box with all documentation and warranty cards.

Care guide
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water to prevent corrosive buildup on the PVD coating.
- Clean the case and bracelet periodically with a soft, lint-free cloth. For deeper cleaning, use lukewarm water and mild soap, then dry thoroughly.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals, which may affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Do not operate the chronograph pushers or adjust the crown while the watch is submerged in water.
- Ensure the screw-down crown is fully tightened after any time or date adjustment to maintain water resistance.
- Have the water resistance tested and gaskets inspected every 2-3 years, especially if the watch is regularly exposed to water.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. A watch box or soft pouch is recommended.
- If the chronograph seconds hand does not return to zero when reset, bring the watch to Cassims & Co. for professional adjustment.
