The Tissot Gentleman Gold Bezel 40mm, reference T927.407.46.291.01, pairs a 316L stainless-steel case with an 18K gold bezel, brown dial and brown leather strap. Its Swiss automatic Powermatic 80 movement is specified with a silicon balance spring and an 80-hour power reserve. This is the brown-strap configuration; other Gold Bezel variants have different dials or bracelets.
Which Tissot Gentleman is this?
The exact match is Tissot’s Tissot Gentleman Gold Bezel 40mm, reference T927.407.46.291.01 (SKU T9274074629101). Check the full reference when comparing listings: the Gold Bezel family also includes other dial and strap or bracelet combinations.
The named model’s gold detail is its bezel, not an all-gold case. Tissot specifies a 316L stainless-steel case and an 18 ct gold bezel. The company describes its 18K gold as an alloy containing 75% pure gold mixed with silver and copper.

What the 18K bezel and silicon movement mean
Gold bezel, steel case
The bezel supplies the solid-gold component, while the case remains stainless steel. That distinction matters when interpreting descriptions such as “gold Tissot Gentleman”: this reference is a two-tone construction, not a solid-gold case. The brown dial and matching strap complete the specified configuration.
Powermatic 80 with silicon balance spring
Tissot specifies an automatic Powermatic 80 calibre with a patented silicon balance spring and an 80-hour power reserve. The reserve is the manufacturer’s stated specification; it is not a promise of independently measured running time or accuracy. The watch also has a date function and a see-through caseback.

Fit, strap and everyday considerations
The 40 mm case is 10.64 mm thick, and its lugs are 20 mm wide. The official brown strap reference is T600043752; Tissot lists embossed cow leather on the front, synthetic material on the back, and a butterfly clasp with push-buttons. A replacement strap should match the 20 mm lug width and attachment requirements, not width alone; verify compatibility before buying a third-party option.
Tissot’s general analogue mechanical-watch manual advises cleaning regularly with a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy water, except for the leather strap. That is general care guidance, not a model-specific service interval. The same manual says Tissot guarantees spare-part availability for at least 10 years after production stops for standard watches and up to 20 years for gold watches; consult the manual for its scope and terms.

US price and warranty listed by Tissot
On Tissot’s US product page, the reference was listed at $2,375 with a two-year warranty when checked on October 8, 2026. Both details are time- and market-specific: that listing does not establish prices, availability or warranty terms in other regions, and current terms should be confirmed with Tissot before purchase.
When comparing sellers, confirm that the listing is specifically reference T927.407.46.291.01 and check the dial, brown strap, condition, seller and applicable regional warranty. Listings for a gold-bezel model with a different dial or a steel bracelet are not this exact configuration.
