Street basketball has its own culture, and Tissot captured it in the Gent XL 3x3 Street Basketball T116.410.36.067.00, a bold three-hand watch built around the fast, urban spirit of FIBA 3x3, where Tissot is an official partner.

Look closely at the dark dial and you will see a subtle wire-netting texture with a stylized basketball set into the background, a clever nod to the outdoor courts where the game is played. The 42mm stainless steel case is finished with a dark PVD coating and engraved on the back. The watch also comes with two easily interchangeable straps, a classic black leather and a graffiti-inspired FIBA 3x3 design, thanks to Tissot’s quick-release system.

Despite the bold looks, it is remarkably slim at just 8.9mm, so it never feels heavy. Sapphire crystal resists scratches, the ETA F06.115 Swiss quartz movement adds a date, and luminous coatings help you read the time after dusk.
