Introduction to Bent Høie
Bent Høie is a Norwegian politician and a senior figure within the Conservative Party (Høyre) of Norway. He served as Minister of Health and Care Services for nearly a decade under Prime Minister Erna Solberg's government, making him one of the longest-serving health ministers in Norwegian political history. During his tenure, he oversaw significant healthcare reforms, guided Norway's public health infrastructure through substantial institutional change, and became a recognizable face of centrist-right governance in Scandinavia. He has also served as a member of the Storting, Norway's national parliament, representing Rogaland.
The Bent Høie watch collection, as far as public sightings go, reflects the kind of pragmatic, grounded sensibility you might expect from a career public servant who has spent years navigating the realities of government rather than the social circuit. He has been spotted wearing a Tissot PRC 200 Automatic Chronograph, reference T055.427.17.057.00 — a 44mm stainless steel sports watch with a unidirectional rotating tachymeter bezel and a matte black dial fitted with luminous indices. The piece sits on a dark rubber or leather strap, keeping the overall look functional and understated. Tissot, the Swiss manufacturer owned by the Swatch Group, positions the PRC 200 as a serious sports instrument at an accessible price point, and it carries genuine technical credentials including 200 metres of water resistance and an automatic movement.
The choice of a Tissot rather than a prestige-tier Swiss brand tells you something concrete about Høie's public-facing priorities. For a politician whose career has centred on public healthcare and resource allocation, wearing a watch that prioritises utility over price tag carries a certain internal logic. It is a capable, well-built instrument — nothing more performative than that.

The Tissot PRC 200 Automatic Chronograph is one of Swiss watchmaking's most credible sport-tool propositions under $1,000 — housing a COSC-adjacent ETA Valjoux 7753 movement behind a tachymeter bezel rated to 200m water resistance. Norwegian Conservative politician and Minister of Health and Care Services Bent Høie wears it without pretension: a working chronograph on a rubber strap, perfectly suited to a public servant who apparently values function over status signaling.
