The history of the date function at Tissot began with the Calendrier model, where the date was indicated by a central arrow-shaped hand. Officially launched in 1954, the Tissot Visodate takes its name from the combination of “Visa” and “Date.” It was one of the very first automatic wristwatches to feature a direct, easily readable date window on the dial, replacing the traditional pointer hands.
