Tissot has expanded its long-standing partnership with the National Basketball Association by unveiling the new Tissot Supersport NBA 2026 chronograph, a timepiece designed with a monochromatic gray color scheme inspired by contemporary sportswear. The Swiss watchmaker, which has served as the official timekeeper of the NBA since 2015, priced the special-edition accessory at $525.
Sandblasted Steel Case Features Muted Industrial Aesthetic
The 42mm timepiece shifts away from traditional team colorways to adopt a muted industrial aesthetic. Its case, bezel, and push buttons feature sandblasted stainless steel with a matte finish. That texture extends across the gray dial and the matching gray rubber strap. Tissot protects the watch face with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, while equipping the hands and hour markers with Super-LumiNova luminescence for visibility in low-light conditions.
The design incorporates subtle basketball elements rather than overt logos. Dotted white lines crisscross the dial to mimic the floor markings of an NBA court. The date window is shaped like the three-second key area beneath the basket. The central chronograph seconds hand features the league’s iconic Logoman emblem.
Bezel Mimics Shot Clock with Swiss Quartz Movement
On the outer bezel, Tissot replaced traditional timing scales with a 24-second marker layout as a direct tribute to the league’s shot clock rule. The caseback carries custom engravings celebrating both the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference of the NBA.
The watch runs on a Swiss-made G10 quartz chronograph movement built for daily wear and accurate timing. It ships with a quick-release interchangeable gray rubber strap, allowing wearers to swap bands without tools.
