Quincy Miller hasn’t left the game; he’s just moved to a different court. Miller, who spent years competing at basketball’s highest level with the Denver Nuggets, Sacramento Kings, and Detroit Pistons before going international in Serbia, Japan, and the Philippines, has channeled the creativity, commitment, and drive of his game to an unexpected place: painting.
Miller’s skill with a brush is now on display in Los Angeles, where Swiss watch brand Tissot has tapped the power forward to create the centrepiece of its NBA All-Star 2026 activation. To create the first-of-its-kind piece, Miller reimagined 32 watch boxes for the Tissot Supersport NBA Special Edition as individually hand-painted panels in a basketball-themed mosaic. Separately, each box contains a piece of the puzzle, and together the 32 boxes form a unified artwork — a visual metaphor for the league itself, where each team is only as strong as its individual players, and each player can only succeed with the support of his team.
The piece is also inspired by Venice Beach, the gritty, sun-drenched stretch of Los Angeles whose outdoor courts — most famously seen in the 1992 classic White Men Can’t Jump — hold a larger-than-life place in basketball mythology. As the location of the 2026 All-Star game, Los Angeles’ most famous basketball courts made a fitting subject. The painting, in which Miller translates the court into a clock face, with a circular court as its dial and 11 players scattered across its surface, speaks to Tissot’s NBA motto, Everyone gets 24. As in, 24 seconds on the shot clock, 24 hours in a day, and a lifetime of seconds invested to reach the level of an All-Star.
Each player in the NBA All-Star Game will receive one of Miller’s hand-painted watch boxes, as will fellow Tissot Ambassador Damian Lillard, who won the NBA All-Star Weekend’s State Farm 3-Point Contest for the third time, tying Larry Bird and Craig Hodges for the most wins of all time.
Miller’s art project is a first for Tissot, but it’s only the latest chapter in the brand’s presence in professional basketball. Tissot has served as the Official Timekeeper of the NBA and WNBA since 2015, and this season the brand rolled out a redesigned Shot Clock and timing system, co-developed with the league itself, across all NBA arenas. Tissot’s MotoGP partnership, meanwhile, stretches back to 2001 and has made the brand a prominent presence at the biggest event in two-wheeled motorsports. As official timekeeper of the UCI World Championships since 1995, Tissot has likewise become synonymous with the highest levels of professional cycling, including the Tour de France, La Vuelta, and the UCI World Championships.
With or without a box hand-painted by an NBA star, the Tissot Supersport NBA Special Edition makes a fitting tribute to the sport, thanks to details including a basketball-textured dial with red, white, and blue accents, an NBA logo on the seconds hand, and a 24-second shot clock countdown timer. For NBA fans and aspiring pros alike, it’s a constant reminder that every second counts.
