Nicky Hayden was a Tissot ambassador, and the Swiss luxury watchmaker celebrated that fact with annual releases of Limited Edition watches inspired by Nicky and his MotoGP career – they had similar arrangements at the time with Danica Patrick and Michael Owen.
Here’s what Tissot had to say about the piece: “In a world where precision and timing are key, Nicky Hayden, 2006 MotoGP World Champion, certainly knows the importance of counting every second. No surprise therefore that, as Tissot’s ambassador, a dedicated signature watch should be created for him, with a rotating brake-disk bezel, a carbon- fibre dial and a specific case-back engraved with limited edition number. This watch is presented in a special helmet box in the same matching orange as Nicky’s characteristic team colour.”
With a case measuring 43mm in diameter, the watch was also complemented by a sapphire crystal, a quartz chronograph movement, and a unidirectional bezel.
This example is #0077/4,999. The seller (FJ Watches) has worked with Iconic on a number of watch sales.
Please note: The seller states that the strap is sized to fit a wrist measuring 7.5 inches. It will also with a brand new spare strap.
The sale includes the original box, helmet box, drawstring bag and paperwork (including the certificate of authenticity).

Per the seller, “the condition is as good as new. The watch has been worn only a handful of times, and is in fantastic shape with almost no wear signs. The watch has a brand new battery and gasket.”
