Tissot introduces moonphase to Désir line

This newly released collection unfolds through six distinct expressions
Swiss watchmaker Tissot has unveiled a new poetic interpretation of timekeeping with the latest Désir Moonphase collection. This latest collection includes six different watches, each with a distinct dial housed in a 29.6 mm stainless steel domed case, a signature of the line. The new watches also retain the cabochon crown at the 2 o'clock, another identifier of the line.


At the heart of this collection are two signature models designed to evoke the depth of the night sky, featuring a moonphase complication at 5 o'clock, set against a deep blue dial punctuated by mineral inclusions interacting beautifully with light. The blue model is offered in two variations: The Diamond-Set Crescent (Ref. T152.223.11.496.00) featuring a brilliant crescent moon set with diamonds, and the Classical Roman (Ref. T152.223.11.493.00) distinguished by Roman numerals. 



Complementing the deep blue models, the brand has also introduced four additional interpretations defined by their silky-textured dials available in three main colours—silver (Ref. T152.223.22.036.00), golden beige (Ref. T152.223.11.546.00), and red (Ref.T152.223.11.036.00 )—alongside a sophisticated bi-colour execution with a silver dial (Ref. T152.223.11.426.00). Each of these four interpretations is complemented by a white mother-of-pearl disc within the moonphase complication again at 5 o’clock. Time is marked by leaf-shaped hands sweeping across the dial with diamond indexes. 



All the watches in the collection are powered by a precise Swiss Made Moonphase Quartz movement equipped with an End of Life (EOL) indicator. They are worn on a matching stainless steel bracelet. 

All watches are priced differently: The silver, golden beige, and red dial models are priced at ₹52,000. The blue dial with Roman numerals is priced ₹49,500. The bi-tone model is priced at ₹ 57,500. The blue dial with diamonds is priced at ₹ 54,500.
