Swiss watchmaker Tissot has introduced its latest NBA-themed timepiece, the Supersport NBA 2026. This new model combines the brand's sports watch design with elements inspired by the National Basketball Association. The watch features a 42mm stainless steel case and is designed for everyday wear and sports activities. Tissot's partnership with the NBA continues with this unique timepiece.
The Supersport NBA 2026 boasts several basketball-inspired features. The watch's bezel has a 24-second timer graduation, mirroring the NBA's shot clock. The case back features an engraved NBA logo, further emphasizing the brand's collaboration with the league. The watch is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating on the underside.
The watch's design is complemented by a gray rubber strap made from HNBR-NBR material, suitable for active wear. The strap is paired with a classic pin buckle and a quick-release system, allowing users to easily swap it with compatible straps. The watch has a 10-bar water resistance, equivalent to 100 meters, making it suitable for daily wear and water activities.
The gray dial features several NBA references, including a central seconds hand with a small NBA logo in blue, white, and red. The watch also has luminous hour markers and hands for improved readability in low light. The date display is positioned at 4 o'clock, maintaining the chronograph's layout. Tissot's design balances sports elements with traditional watchmaking.
The Supersport NBA 2026 is powered by a quartz chronograph movement, the PowerDrive. This movement prioritizes precision, rapid reading, and simple use of chronometric functions. The watch features a 60-second central hand, a 30-minute counter, and a 1/10 second display. Additional functions include ADD and SPLIT, making it suitable for sports timing.
The watch's electronic component operates at 1.55 volts, and an End of Life (EOL) indicator alerts users when the battery needs replacement. Tissot's focus on functionality makes the quartz movement a fitting choice for this sports watch. The brand emphasizes the watch's precision and usability over visible mechanics or manual winding.
The Tissot Supersport NBA 2026 is priced at €525 and is available at Tissot boutiques, the brand's official website, and authorized retailers. The watch comes with a two-year warranty and is manufactured in Switzerland.
