In the world of horology, few names carry the weight of history and innovation like Mathey Tissot. Known for crafting timepieces that blend precision, durability, and elegance, Mathey Tissot has once again captured the essence of a classic era with the introduction of the Type XXIISE. This model is more than just a watch—it's a tribute to the legendary Type 20, a revered chronograph that has earned a permanent place in the annals of watchmaking history.
The Legacy of the Type 20
The original Type 20 was not just a watch; it was a tool of precision, specifically designed for the French military in the 1950s. Pilots needed a reliable, accurate, and robust chronograph, and the Type 20 delivered on all fronts. With its flyback function, large readable dial, and resilient construction, it became the gold standard for military aviation watches.

Mathey Tissot’s Type XXIISE is a modern reinterpretation of this classic design. It takes the DNA of the Type 20 and evolves it into a timepiece that meets the demands of today’s watch enthusiasts while staying true to its roots. The Type XXIISE is equipped with a Swiss mechanical hand-winding chronograph movement, which not only honors the traditional craftsmanship but also ensures a precise and reliable performance.
Swiss Craftsmanship at Its Finest
At the heart of the Type XXIISE lies a Swiss-made hand-winding chronograph movement, a testament to the intricate craftsmanship that Mathey Tissot is known for. This movement is more than just a mechanism; it’s a statement of precision and reliability. The hand-winding feature is particularly appealing to connoisseurs who appreciate the tactile engagement with their timepiece, making the act of winding the watch a daily ritual that connects them with the watch’s mechanical soul.
