    For all who speaks about "service" here. Do you know the price? I recently went to service with my Tissot I'm using last 22 years with no service before. My mistake was that I had been swimming with them 20 years ago in the sea with protection 30M. If not this they might still be ok. But I have got each day 30 sec delay now. Service told me 200 € for all service. Plus I need front glass to be replaced as they fall down couple of years before. All together 250 which easy go up to 300 € just in case. New watch cost around 495 €. My previous one has 25 jewels, means it's not System51. But they still just replace all if more then 10 years past. The point is your watch will go easily 20-30 years. Then if you clever man, you won't repair it but buy new one because it's more than half price from new, plus new technologies always better. Think about it.

    Hi Chris, I'm sorry I'm late to the party: my wife brought me one of these from China recently. I suspect that yours is a Sugess, the same as mine. I really like it actually. Several watch companies use this movement so it's quite possible that the 1963 is serviceable to an extent, even if that means swapping out the movement. As mine was a gift I'll certainly keep it for as long as possible. It gets regular but infrequent use so I'm hoping it won't need a service any time soon... 🙂

    Great video, and a very classy and nice piece. I’m looking to purchase a 16220 as well in a jubilee, and slate tapestry dial just a beautiful piece. But I don’t want to pull the trigger until i see it in a leather strap or maybe if you can show your 16220 in a leather that would be a huge help. Also, in regards to the bracelet is the clasp your talking about is it a huge problem is it way to loose or it’s okay? Thanks

  • @martintanz9098
    @martintanz9098 8 місяців тому

    I wanted a PRX when they first came out 3 or 4 years ago, but I don’t anymore. Imo, Tissot has over marketed this watch and come out with too many models. The last straw for me was the Prx digital. Really Tissot? The other thing is, imo, the feature of the PRX is the integrated bracelet. If I couldn’t get a good fit, I probably wouldn’t wear it. Good for Tissot they have broken through the watch enthusiast bubble to the larger world of regular people, but it just isn’t for me.

  • @martintanz9098
    @martintanz9098 8 місяців тому

    I owned one of those awhile back. The star of the show was the movement. The rest of the watch was just ok. In the end, not a keeper fir me as I had a hard time philosophically owning a disposable chronograph.

  • @martintanz9098
    @martintanz9098 8 місяців тому

    Every one goes through a Seiko phase. I still have my Presage I bought about 5 years ago. It’s a great dressy watch in a modern size. Even better on a Strapcode Jubilee bracelet. I really should reach for it more, but I have mostly moved on to higher end pieces. So the Presage is too nice to be a beater. Nonetheless, I think it remains a great choice for the non watch guy. With fathers days and graduation season, I still think it would be a great graduation gift for a high school or college grad, or a Father’s Day gift for a dad who normally won’t spend more than $100 on a watch, but knows the name Seiko.

    Nice review. I love this watch. On the differences, you missed a couple. The position of the day/date window is more centered. In the prior version it was closer to the 3 o’clock mark. The other difference is the length of the hour and minute hands. Another difference is the color and content of the winding pendulum shown through the back case. Also, the crown has the classic Tissot logo as the dial does. The solitary T is now gone. I believe there is a change in the strap design as well, for those vying this watch with a strap. Last the profile of the stainless steel case changes. The prior one had a more pronounced downward angle and it was flatter.
