Indeed, Tissot was a family-run firm from its founding in 1853 through the 1970s, and in addition to the '60s and '70s-era models shown above, also produced a wide range of collectible models from the 1930s through the 1950s. They produced milwatches, chronometers, chronographs, worldtimers, and oversized jumbos based on in-house calibers and cased in steel, solid gold, chrome and gold-fill, some on signed Gay-Freres bracelets. In many ways the firm competed with Omega while partnering with them at the same time.
For folks who are new to the hobby and want to try hunting for their own vintage Swiss watch, the marque offers plenty of interesting dial designs and case styles to search for at relatively affordable prices. Some of us started there and never left. 😀
Here are a few samples from the 1950s:
Some milwatches from the '40s:
A few designs from the '30s:

·I would be interested in a Tissot sub-forum. I'd love to add a black pointer-date, or some other interesting black dial from the 1950s.

·I like the 1940s/1950s logo with the long T. I am on the lookout for one (but I like cheap rusty grody watches.)

·The -T- logo from 1960 would lend itself well as a forum icon:

·I’m just happy to have a sub forum, logo it with whichever decade logo you like. As mentioned above, some of us started with the brand and have never left. I love the tissot I have as much as the omega I have.

·LOGO
1978 – 1998: The brand for twenty years and became a basis for the current iconic insignia the whole world recognizes today. The logo was executed in a monochrome color palette and featured composition of a bold sans-serif inscription with the uppercase letters perfectly balanced, and an emblem, placed above it — the serif letter “T” with the elongated tails of its horizontal bar, pointing down. It was a very elegant yet pretty simple logo, which brilliantly reflected the essence of the label.

·1998 – Today: As the brand spread its influence to the international market, the logo with the lettering “Swiss” started to be used. In the current version, the name of the country has been replaced by its symbol, the white cross on the red background. While the core of the emblem is given in black and white, the red accent on the cross sign helps to make the overall design more dynamic and eye-catching.
