From skeleton dials to track-ready details, the new Tissot T-Race MotoGP collection channels the spirit of racing through cutting-edge timepieces
In the high-stakes world of MotoGP, every millisecond counts. Precision isn’t just important—it’s the difference between the podium and the pack. For Tissot, official timekeeper of the sport since 2001, this pursuit of accuracy has always been personal. The brand’s latest T-Race MotoGP watch collection doesn’t just celebrate speed. It captures it in metal, rubber and movement.
This year’s release marks a bold evolution. Leading the collection is the T-Race MotoGP Automatic Limited Edition, powered by a skeletonized Valjoux A05.951 movement. With a 68-hour power reserve and the mechanism fully visible through the dial, this is a timepiece that puts its engineering on display. The brake disc bezel and engine-inspired rubber strap highlight its racing roots, while a helmet-shaped box brings it full circle. Only 2,025 pieces are available, making this a rare find for those who thrive on adrenaline and appreciate mechanical beauty.
If the automatic model is the soul of the series, the Quartz Chronograph Limited Edition is its muscle. Limited to 8,000 units, this watch features a high-performance quartz chronograph movement with aesthetics pulled straight from the pit lane. Crankcase-style indexes, sand-colored accents and a tachymeter marked with 366.1—a nod to the 2023 MotoGP top speed record—ground it firmly in racing culture. It’s a piece built for decisive moments, where control and instinct meet.
Tissot also injects color into the collection with two new Quartz Chronograph 45mm models in turquoise green and orange, both contrasted with black PVD-coated cases. These bold pairings channel the visual energy of racing, offering standout style without losing a single step in performance. Because sometimes, presence isn’t about being loud—it’s about being seen.
For those who prefer a smaller case, the T-Race 38mm series arrives with three distinctive looks: one in white with a mother-of-pearl dial and ceramic baguette-cut bezel, a stealthy all-black version, and a brushed carnation gold edition. Though more compact in size, these watches offer the same functionality and character as their larger counterparts. They’re made for individuals who carve their own lane, where power meets subtlety.
The spirit behind the watches is also brought to life through Tissot’s new campaign featuring Enea Bastianini, one of MotoGP’s most compelling riders. In the short film, Bastianini returns to the training circuit where he once rode as a boy. There, surrounded by young hopefuls and memories of his early days, he reflects on what shaped him—not just as a rider, but as a person.
Wearing the skeletonized T-Race Automatic, he rides with a quiet intensity. The track becomes a metaphor for challenge and perspective, a reminder that sometimes progress comes not from pushing harder, but from seeing the bigger picture. The watch on his wrist mirrors that philosophy, exposing its inner workings just as Bastianini reveals his own.
In the end, the T-Race MotoGP collection is more than a set of racing watches. It’s a tribute to momentum, resilience and the journey behind performance. Whether you’re chasing milliseconds on the track or milestones in life, these timepieces are made for the moments that matter—when everything is on the line, and there’s no looking back.
