Overview
The Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial combines contemporary Swiss design with innovative solar-powered technology in a versatile stainless-steel package. Its balanced 39 mm case, silver dial and distinctive twelve-sided bezel create a refined modern appearance that transitions naturally between professional, casual and more formal settings.
First introduced in the mid-2000s, the PRC 100 established a recognisable identity through its bold design. The current generation brings that character into a new era with Tissot’s Lightmaster Solar Quartz movement, which converts available light into energy for the watch.
The Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial can recharge from both natural and artificial light, combining the accuracy and convenience of quartz with reduced dependence on conventional disposable battery replacement.
Beneath its sapphire crystal sits a clean silver dial with index hour markers, a practical date display and Super-LumiNova® on the hands. The neutral dial and polished stainless-steel construction give this reference a particularly versatile character compared with darker or more strongly coloured versions.
With 100 m water resistance and an interchangeable bracelet, the PRC 100 is designed to function as a genuine everyday Swiss watch rather than a purely formal timepiece.

Distinctive PRC 100 Design
The defining visual feature of the collection is its bold dodecagonal bezel.
Rather than using a completely round bezel, the Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial introduces twelve distinct sides that frame the dial and give the watch an immediately recognisable geometric identity.
Tissot specifically highlights this twelve-sided bezel as a central part of the revived PRC 100 design.
The stainless-steel finish allows the geometry to remain visible without creating an overly aggressive appearance.
At 39 mm, the case provides enough wrist presence to showcase the design while maintaining proportions that remain comfortable and versatile for everyday use.
This makes the PRC 100 particularly attractive for someone who wants something more distinctive than a traditional round watch without moving into oversized sports-watch territory.
Refined Silver Dial
The silver dial gives this reference its particularly versatile personality.
Tissot officially specifies a silver dial with index hour markers, paired with Super-LumiNova® on the hands.
The lighter colour reflects more ambient light than the black version and gives the Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial a cleaner and more traditional stainless-steel appearance.
Despite containing the photovoltaic technology required for solar charging, the dial remains visually refined.
The solar system is integrated discreetly, allowing the watch to retain the appearance of a conventional Swiss timepiece rather than looking overtly technological.
A practical date display adds everyday usefulness, while the simple layout maintains excellent visual balance.
Lightmaster Solar Quartz Technology
The defining technical feature of the Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial is its Swiss Quartz Solar movement.
Tissot’s Lightmaster technology captures photovoltaic energy and uses it to power the movement. Importantly, the watch is designed to recharge using both natural and artificial light.
Instead of a standard disposable battery, this model uses a rechargeable Panasonic CTL920F accumulator.
This allows energy collected by the solar system to be stored and used by the movement, giving the owner the familiar precision of quartz with significantly greater everyday convenience.
Tissot also incorporates an End of Energy indicator, helping communicate when the available stored energy is becoming low.
For someone who wants dependable Swiss timekeeping with minimal maintenance, the solar system is one of the strongest reasons to choose the PRC 100.

Balanced 39mm Stainless-Steel Case
The case measures 39 mm × 39 mm and is manufactured from 316L stainless steel. Its thickness is just 9.22 mm, while the lug width measures 20 mm.
These proportions give the Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial a balanced wrist presence.
The case feels contemporary without becoming bulky, while the relatively slim profile allows it to work naturally beneath a shirt cuff.
The stainless-steel construction also contributes to the clean monochromatic appearance of this reference.
Unlike the black PVD version, the silver model emphasises classic metallic finishing and provides greater visual versatility across different styles and occasions.
Sapphire Crystal Protection
Tissot protects the silver dial with scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
Sapphire offers excellent resistance against everyday scratching, helping maintain the polished appearance of the watch during regular wear.
This is particularly important for a model designed as an everyday timepiece.
The crystal protects both the visual clarity of the silver dial and the solar technology positioned beneath it without compromising the refined appearance of the watch.
For the Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial, sapphire crystal contributes significantly to the balance between innovative technology and traditional Swiss quality.
Stainless-Steel Quick-Release Bracelet
This reference is equipped with a grey stainless-steel bracelet, creating a cohesive appearance with the case.
Tissot lists bracelet reference T605050273, secured by a butterfly clasp with push-buttons. The bracelet also features an interchangeable quick-release system.
This system allows compatible bracelets or straps to be removed and changed more conveniently.
The Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial can therefore move from its original full-steel configuration to a different compatible strap depending on the owner’s preferences.
Tissot specifically notes compatibility with 20 mm straps, including leather and Milanese-style alternatives.
That adaptability significantly increases the everyday versatility of the watch.
100m Water Resistance
The watch is rated to 10 bar / 100 metres / 330 feet of water resistance.
This provides considerably more practical protection than a traditional dress watch.
The Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial is therefore designed to handle everyday exposure to water and normal recreational swimming rather than requiring particularly cautious ownership.
Combined with stainless-steel construction, sapphire crystal and solar quartz technology, the 100 m rating reinforces the PRC 100’s position as a genuine everyday Swiss watch.
Designed for Everyday Versatility
One of the strongest qualities of the silver-dial PRC 100 is its adaptability.
The combination of stainless steel and a silver dial creates a neutral foundation that works naturally with a broad range of clothing and occasions.
The Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial can look polished with business attire yet still feel appropriate with casual clothing.
Its 39 mm dimensions maintain a modern presence without excessive size, while solar charging eliminates much of the inconvenience associated with conventional battery-powered watches.
Sapphire crystal, 100 m water resistance and a quick-release bracelet further strengthen its everyday credentials.
At 128 g, the watch retains the reassuring feel of a full stainless-steel construction without becoming excessively large.
Modern Swiss Solar Watchmaking
The Tissot PRC 100 Solar 39mm Silver Dial brings together familiar Swiss watch design and contemporary solar technology without allowing either element to dominate.
Its silver dial and stainless-steel bracelet maintain a timeless appearance, while the dodecagonal bezel introduces enough character to distinguish it from more traditional designs.
Underneath that restrained exterior, Lightmaster technology captures light and powers a precise Swiss Quartz movement.
For someone seeking a modern Swiss Made watch that combines innovative technology, classic metallic styling and excellent everyday practicality, the PRC 100 Solar is an exceptional choice.
