The Timeless Timepiece

Portrait of Tammy Strobel
If you’re looking for a timepiece that’s understated and elegant, Tissot’s Carson Automatic should be your next pick. Fashioned with a scratchresistant sapphire crystal and a 316L stainless steel case, the dial isn’t overly glazed with anything fancy, other than its see-through caseback that displays the watch’s Powermatic 80 and 2671 movement. Available in two sizes (30mm and 40mm) with dials in black or white, and either leather or steel straps. At all Tissot boutiques, for $870-$1,110.
