Two-tone watches are back, and the Tissot PR 100 T101.410.22.031.00 shows why the look endures: a mix of steel and yellow gold PVD gives a classic everyday watch extra warmth and personality without the cost or fragility of solid gold.

The 39mm case and bracelet combine brushed and polished steel with yellow gold PVD-coated elements. PVD is a durable vapor-deposited coating that resists wear far better than traditional plating, so the gold accents keep their glow. The silver dial ties the two metals together with slim baton markers, a date window and luminous hands.

Like every PR 100, it is built for daily life. The case is a slim 9mm, sapphire crystal protects the dial and water resistance reaches 100 meters. An ETA F06.111 Swiss quartz movement delivers dependable timekeeping with almost no maintenance, and the bracelet closes with a secure folding clasp.
