FAQ
Q: Is the Tissot T-Race T141.417.37.061.00 suitable for swimming and water sports?
A: The T-Race chronograph features water resistance appropriate to its design specifications. However, chronograph pushers should never be operated underwater, and we recommend consulting the specific water resistance rating before aquatic use. Our team at Cassim & Co. can provide detailed guidance on proper water exposure for your timepiece.
Q: What is the expected battery life for this quartz chronograph?
A: Swiss quartz movements typically provide between 2-4 years of battery life depending on usage patterns and chronograph activation frequency. When replacement is needed, our authorised service team can fit a genuine battery and perform a full pressure test to maintain your watch's integrity.
Q: Can the black PVD coating be scratched or worn away over time?
A: PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) coating is highly durable and scratch-resistant, significantly more resilient than standard paint or plating. While extreme abrasion or impacts may affect the finish over years of wear, normal use will maintain the coating's integrity. The sapphire crystal provides additional protection against everyday scratches.
Q: Is the silicone strap comfortable for all-day wear?
A: Yes, the integrated silicone strap is specifically designed for extended comfort, offering flexibility, hypoallergenic properties, and resistance to perspiration. The ribbed detailing enhances ventilation during active wear. Should you prefer alternative strap options, our boutique can discuss compatible choices.
Q: How accurate is the quartz chronograph movement?
A: Swiss quartz movements are renowned for exceptional accuracy, typically maintaining precision within +/- 15 seconds per month, significantly more accurate than mechanical movements. The chronograph complication allows timing to 1/10th of a second, making it ideal for sports timing and professional applications.
Q: Does this watch come with the full Tissot international warranty?
A: Yes, when purchased from Cassim & Co. as an authorised Tissot retailer, this T-Race chronograph includes the full 2-year international manufacturer warranty covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. Your warranty card will be completed at the time of purchase with all necessary documentation.
Q: Can the strap be easily changed or adjusted?
A: The silicone strap features a standard pin buckle closure and can be sized by our team at the time of purchase. While the integrated design is specific to this model, our technicians can assist with professional adjustments or discuss alternative strap configurations if desired.

Care Guide
- Clean the black PVD coating and silicone strap regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with fresh water to remove perspiration, dust, and environmental residue.
- Avoid operating the chronograph pushers when the watch is wet or submerged, as this can compromise water resistance and allow moisture ingress into the movement.
- Store your T-Race chronograph away from magnetic fields, including speakers, mobile devices, and magnetic clasps, which can affect quartz movement accuracy.
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater, chlorine, or chemicals, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Have the battery replaced by an authorised Tissot service centre when the chronograph functions begin to slow or the second hand jumps in irregular intervals, typically every 2-4 years.
- Despite the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, avoid impact with hard surfaces, and remove the watch during activities involving heavy machinery or extreme impacts.
- The silicone strap is durable but should be inspected periodically for signs of wear, cracking, or degradation, particularly if exposed to extreme temperatures or UV light regularly.
- Service the watch every 3-5 years at an authorised centre to ensure chronograph functionality, verify water resistance seals, and maintain optimal performance.
- Avoid exposing the PVD coating to harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaning agents that could degrade the finish over time.
