The Memphis collection consists of two Ladies’ models, 34 mm in diameter, one in steel with a white dial, the other in steel with a yellow gold PVD bezel and black appendages. Each model is issued in a limited series of 17,000 pieces.
The two other models, for Men, have a masculine look, with a diameter of 41mm. The first is available in steel with a yellow gold PVD bezel and black PVD appendages. These three references have a white dial and black hour markers, the same as the original edition.
The fourth and final reference is a tribute to our era, as it is fashioned entirely from black PVD steel with a matching dial. Only the hour markers are white, in keeping with the contrasting look that is integral to the Memphis design codes. These Men’s models come in a limited series of 3,000 pieces for the black PVD version and 2,500 for the two-colour version.
These references are mounted on a black synthetic leather strap, made of vegan material, and all come with a second, interchangeable strap in a bright colour. This contrasts not only with the case and dial, but with convention.
Memphis has built its reputation on a lavish use of colour, with a predilection for bright, zesty, pop-art colours. Tissot is taking the same approach by offering pink, red, blue and fawn, always in a lively, clashing, fun combination that is utterly Memphis.
