Tissot Research Astrolon Watch (Cal. 2250) - 1970s - Gold-Plated Case and Signed Screw-Down Caseback Listing description: For sale: a splendid and rare Tissot Astrolon (also marketed as the Tissot Research or Idea 2001), a true milestone in the history of watchmaking. Introduced in the early 1970s, it was the world's first mechanical watch with a movement made almost entirely of self-lubricating plastic (the SYTAL project). This particular variant is especially elegant and less common than the standard transparent-plastic models: it features a gold-plated metal case paired with a dark dial and applied indices. Its standout feature is the transparent display caseback, which lets you admire the iconic Calibre 2250 mechanical movement with its colorful synthetic gears. WATCH FEATURES AND CONDITION: • Movement: Manual-winding mechanical, Tissot 2250 Astrolon (Synthetic) calibre. • Case: Gold-plated, with the typical 1970s cushion shape. It shows normal, light signs of age consistent with the item's age, but the plating is generally well preserved. • Dial: Dark in color, highly legible, with indices and hands in excellent cosmetic condition. • Strap: Brown leather (replacement; not original to the period, but perfectly in keeping with the watch's style). • Working condition: The watch is running perfectly, winds correctly and holds its power reserve. However, it runs fast and needs the balance regulator adjusted or a minor technical check. Sold as-is, ideal for collectors or enthusiasts able to regulate it. The watch is sold without its original box or papers. Available for tracked shipping Feel free to contact me for additional photos or with any questions.
