Overview

The Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial combines Swiss chronograph precision with the unmistakable mechanical character of motorcycle racing. Built around a substantial 45 mm case and a powerful monochrome aesthetic, this reference delivers one of the most assertive interpretations of the T-Race design.

Its black dial creates a technical, instrument-inspired appearance that works naturally with the dark PVD-coated case and sporty strap. The result is a chronograph that feels deliberately engineered rather than simply decorated, with visual references to the world of high-performance motorcycles throughout its architecture.

Inside the Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial is a Swiss Quartz Chronograph movement equipped with practical timing features including a central 60-second chronograph hand, 30-minute counter, 1/10-second counter and ADD and SPLIT functions. An EOL battery indicator provides advance warning when battery replacement is approaching.

The dial is protected by scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, while the 10 bar / 100 m water resistance gives the watch the durability required for regular everyday use.

For someone who wants a large Swiss chronograph with an aggressive black aesthetic and authentic motorsport inspiration, the Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial makes a strong statement.

Motorcycle Racing Inspiration

The T-Race collection is built around the idea that a watch can express the same passion for engineering found in a high-performance motorcycle.

Tissot describes the collection as inspired by racing bikes, with design elements that reflect the dynamic character of motorcycles and the emotion associated with the sport.

That influence can be seen in the technical construction of the case, the pronounced chronograph pushers and the layered visual structure surrounding the dial.

The Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial makes especially effective use of this design language because its darker colour palette emphasises the industrial character of the watch.

Rather than relying on bright racing colours, this reference uses black and metallic tones to create a more understated but still highly aggressive interpretation of the T-Race identity.

It is sporty, mechanical and unmistakably modern.

Black Dial & Technical Styling

The black dial gives this model a particularly focused appearance.

By keeping the main dial colour dark, the chronograph indications, hands and markers stand out more clearly, helping organise what is naturally a detailed sports-watch display.

The layout includes multiple timing functions while preserving strong visual separation between the standard time display and chronograph information.

The Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial therefore manages to feel technical without becoming unnecessarily confusing.

The monochrome colour palette also improves versatility. While the watch is clearly sporty, black works naturally with casual clothing, motorcycle gear, darker tailoring and contemporary streetwear.

For buyers who like the T-Race architecture but prefer something less colourful than the blue or red versions, this reference is an especially strong option.

Swiss Quartz Chronograph Movement

Powering the watch is a Swiss Quartz Chronograph movement engineered for accuracy and ease of ownership.

Quartz technology is particularly suitable for this type of sports watch because it provides highly consistent timekeeping while requiring very little day-to-day attention.

The movement offers:

• Central 60-second chronograph hand
• 30-minute counter
• 1/10-second counter
• ADD chronograph function
• SPLIT chronograph function
• Date display
• EOL battery indicator

Tissot specifies a Renata 394 battery operating at 1.55 volts for this reference.

The EOL function is particularly practical because it warns the wearer when the battery is nearing the end of its useful life.

The Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial therefore offers genuine chronograph functionality without the winding requirements or additional mechanical complexity of an automatic calibre.

45mm PVD-Coated Stainless Steel Case

The watch uses a substantial 45 mm 316L stainless steel case with PVD coating.

Both case length and width measure 45 mm, while the thickness is 11.76 mm. These proportions give the watch the bold presence expected from a T-Race chronograph without making the case excessively thick relative to its diameter.

The PVD coating gives the exterior a darker technical appearance while maintaining the strength and corrosion resistance associated with 316L stainless steel.

At 114 g, this version is considerably lighter than the full stainless-steel bracelet reference, making it more comfortable for extended wear despite the large case dimensions.

The combination of size, dark coating and technical case detailing gives the Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial a particularly assertive wrist presence.

Sapphire Crystal & Anti-Reflective Treatment

The dial is protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on the underside.

Sapphire is one of the most desirable materials used for watch crystals because of its excellent resistance to everyday scratches.

The anti-reflective treatment is especially useful on a dark dial, where reflections can otherwise interfere with contrast and legibility.

By reducing unwanted glare, the crystal helps the black dial and chronograph indications remain easier to read in changing lighting conditions.

For a watch designed to be worn actively, this combination provides both practical durability and long-term visual clarity.

Lightweight Sport Strap

Unlike the stainless-steel bracelet version of the T-Race, this reference adopts a sportier strap configuration that complements the PVD-coated case.

The darker strap continues the monochrome theme of the watch and helps place greater visual emphasis on the black dial and mechanical case architecture.

It also contributes to the relatively low 114 g overall weight, which is notable for a watch with a 45 mm case.

This makes the Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial particularly suitable for someone who likes large watches but does not want the additional weight of a full steel bracelet.

The result is a more athletic and distinctly motorsport-focused wearing experience.

100m Water Resistance

Tissot rates this model to 10 bar / 100 metres / 330 feet of water resistance.

That level of protection gives the watch enough versatility for everyday exposure to water and normal swimming.

Combined with sapphire crystal, the robust PVD-coated case and dependable quartz movement, the water-resistance rating helps reinforce the T-Race as a practical sports watch rather than simply an aesthetic tribute to racing.

The Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial can therefore accompany its owner through everyday routines, travel and active weekends while maintaining its distinctive appearance.

A Bold Everyday Sports Chronograph

The strongest advantage of this version is how easily its dramatic design translates into daily wear.

A black sports watch naturally coordinates with a wide range of clothing, and the monochrome styling makes this reference more versatile than brighter T-Race editions.

The substantial 45 mm case still gives it unmistakable presence, but the reduced weight and sporty strap help keep the watch comfortable.

Swiss quartz accuracy removes the need for regular winding, sapphire crystal protects the dial and 100 m water resistance adds useful everyday durability.

The Tissot T-Race 45mm Black Dial is therefore especially appealing to someone who wants the mechanical aesthetic of motorcycle racing without sacrificing straightforward ownership.
