Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial
The Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial combines contemporary Swiss sports-watch styling with a clean stainless-steel construction and a bold black dial. Reference T095.417.11.057.00 belongs to Tissot’s Quickster / T-Sport family and features a 42 mm stainless-steel case, matching bracelet, sapphire crystal and Swiss quartz chronograph movement. The result is a versatile sports chronograph with enough presence for casual wear while remaining refined enough for everyday professional use.
At 42 mm in diameter, the Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial provides a confident contemporary wrist presence without moving into excessively oversized proportions. The diameter gives the chronograph layout enough space to remain visually balanced, while the round case preserves the familiar architecture of a classic sports watch.
The case measures approximately 10.72 mm thick, keeping reference T095.417.11.057.00 relatively controlled for a watch with full chronograph functionality. This helps the Quickster remain comfortable for regular daily wear and allows it to sit more naturally beneath a jacket or shirt cuff than many thicker sports chronographs.
The case is manufactured from stainless steel, creating a durable and timeless foundation. Unlike the rose-gold-tone leather versions of the Quickster, this reference uses a full steel configuration that gives the Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial a cooler, more technical personality.
The black dial is the defining visual element. Against the silver-tone case and bracelet, the dark dial creates strong contrast and reinforces the sporty character of the watch. Exact-reference listings consistently identify T095.417.11.057.00 with a black dial.
The chronograph layout gives the dial its performance-oriented identity. Multiple counters provide elapsed-time information while creating the balanced, instrument-inspired appearance associated with the Quickster collection. The Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial therefore offers considerably more visual and functional depth than a conventional three-hand quartz watch.
A practical date display adds useful everyday functionality. Exact-reference specifications confirm date functionality alongside the chronograph, making reference T095.417.11.057.00 well suited to regular daily use rather than purely occasional wear.
The watch also incorporates a tachymeter scale, a traditional feature associated with sports and racing chronographs. Used together with the chronograph, a tachymeter can help calculate average speed over a known distance. Even when not used frequently, the scale contributes strongly to the technical visual identity of the Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial.
Protecting the dial is a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Sapphire is one of the most valuable practical features on an everyday watch because of its strong resistance to normal scratching. It helps preserve the clarity of the black chronograph dial and maintains the premium appearance of reference T095.417.11.057.00 over time.
Inside the case is a Swiss quartz chronograph movement. Exact-reference databases identify the movement as the ETA G10.211, providing dependable battery-powered operation together with chronograph and date functionality.
Quartz operation makes the Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial especially straightforward to own. Unlike an automatic chronograph, the watch does not need to remain on the wrist or be manually wound to maintain power.
This makes reference T095.417.11.057.00 particularly convenient for someone who rotates between several watches. It can remain stored while continuing to keep time, allowing the owner simply to pick it up and wear it whenever needed.
The quartz movement also offers a practical solution for someone who appreciates chronograph functionality but does not necessarily want the servicing complexity and power-reserve considerations associated with a mechanical chronograph.
A full stainless-steel bracelet completes the design. The silver-tone bracelet creates a cohesive connection with the case and gives the Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial a more substantial wrist presence than the leather-strap Quickster variants. Exact-reference specifications confirm stainless steel for both case and bracelet.
The bracelet uses a deployment-style clasp, providing a secure closure while maintaining the clean, integrated appearance of the full-steel configuration.
The case uses approximately 19 mm lugs, keeping the bracelet proportionate to the 42 mm diameter. Exact-reference specifications also place the total weight at approximately 144 grams, giving the watch the substantial feel expected from a full stainless-steel sports chronograph.
The Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial is therefore noticeably more substantial on the wrist than the leather-strap Quickster references. That additional weight contributes to the solid, robust character of the watch and will appeal particularly to someone who enjoys the feel of a traditional steel sports watch.
Water resistance is rated to 10 bar / 100 metres / 330 feet. This gives reference T095.417.11.057.00 considerably more versatility around everyday water exposure than a typical dress watch and complements the sports-oriented design of the Quickster family.
For professional wear, the Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial offers a strong but restrained appearance. Black and stainless steel form one of the most versatile combinations in watch design, allowing the watch to work naturally with navy, charcoal, white, grey and other neutral colours.
The 42 mm case provides enough presence to feel contemporary, but the all-steel construction keeps the design cleaner and less decorative than the rose-gold-tone Quickster versions.
For casual wear, the watch becomes even more natural. The black chronograph dial, tachymeter and bracelet pair easily with denim, polos, jackets and more relaxed clothing.
Reference T095.417.11.057.00 is also a particularly strong option for someone seeking a single versatile Swiss chronograph. Its monochromatic black-and-steel aesthetic makes it easier to coordinate than more colourful sports watches, while the quartz movement keeps everyday ownership straightforward.
For someone purchasing a first Swiss Made chronograph, the Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial offers a compelling feature set: sapphire crystal, Swiss quartz operation, chronograph functionality, date, tachymeter and 100 m water resistance.
The design also works well as a gift because it avoids extreme colour choices. Black and stainless steel have broad appeal, while the Swiss Made Tissot name and chronograph functionality give reference T095.417.11.057.00 a more substantial character than a simple three-hand watch.

Why Buy the Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial?
The Tissot Quickster Chronograph Black Dial is appealing because it avoids unnecessary styling complexity.
Black and stainless steel form one of the most enduring combinations in watch design. The dial has enough technical detail to feel sporty, while the monochromatic colour scheme prevents the watch from becoming difficult to coordinate.

Quartz operation is another advantage. The watch continues running when it is not being worn, meaning there is no requirement to wind it before use or reset the time after the mechanical power reserve has expired.
For someone who wants a practical Swiss sports watch with chronograph functionality, sapphire crystal and strong everyday water resistance, this Quickster provides a well-balanced package.

How often will the battery need replacement?

Does frequent chronograph use consume more battery?
Yes. Operating the additional chronograph functions can increase battery consumption compared with basic timekeeping alone.
Should battery replacement be done professionally?
Yes. Professional battery replacement is preferable, particularly on a water-resistant watch, because the case seals can also be inspected.
Should the water resistance be tested after battery replacement?
If you plan to rely on the watch’s water resistance, pressure testing after the case has been opened is sensible.

Chronograph timing, date functionality and 100 m water resistance add genuine everyday usefulness to the clean black-and-steel aesthetic.
