Tissot just revealed an exciting collaboration with Alpine that teases a modular approach to luxury-tier timekeeping. It was specifically designed to as a perfect pair to the 2018 A110. With the 2018 Alpine A110 On Board Automatic, you can enjoy a retro timepiece that looks stunning on your wrist or on your coupe’s dashboard.
Tissot’s partnership with the Alpine resulted in a cohesive design. Although both share similar functions, the German-made model offers an extra option that allows you to use it as a pocket watch. Furthermore, the On Board Automatic flaunts a unique type of exclusivity. Unfortunately, it seems that only way to own it is to acquire the sleek and stylish two-seater.
It might seem prohibitive for collectors, but if you’re in the market for a new ride, it’s an ideal excuse to splurge on the 2018 Alpine A110. The chronograph comes in a 45mm 316L stainless steel case that features a Valjoux A05.H31 automatic movement and a 60-hour power reserve. Flip it over to view the exhibition case back that gives you a glimpse of what’s inside.
The Tissot On Board Automatic can dock with a special frame on the infotainment screen of the coupe. When it’s time to exit the vehicle, you can transfer it a special leather bracelet and wear it as a wristwatch.
