    I have owned this watch for three months and love it. The blue dial is absolutely hard to look away from. The indices are applied, and their thickness adds contrast between them and the dial. The only area lacking in this watch is the lume. The lume plots and hands don't exactly light up easily. Say what you will about Seiko, but all one has to do is walk past a window in which their hands and indices glow like the sun. Not so much with the Tissot Gentlemen. Last, but not least - it keeps excellent time over the course of days. For the price, this watch is a 9 out of 10.

    Just recently purchased a blue faced Gentleman, and I love it. (I went with the version on a leather strap, just as a personal preference).
    But there is a variation on the dial that I'm not sure is "new", or just an alternate look. SOME of them have crosshair markings from the 12 to the 6, and the 3 to the 9. That seemingly minor addition really makes the watch look better, in my humble opinion. Worth looking around to see which one speaks to you....

      Agreed. My wrist is bigger than Chris's at 7.75" to 8" and I certainly wouldn't want it any larger. I haven't had it on wrist but I think I'd like it more if it was 39mm. Gotta admit, I like male end-links because they wear well on my meaty paw but 53mm effective lug to lug? That's a big wingspan for even for those with the average 6.75" to 7.25" wrist size.

      Exactly. That's a sweet spot for a watch like the PRX. It'll work well for guys with smaller to average wrists as well as attracting some female buyers. The same could be true with a smaller Gentleman, even a 36mm-37mm variant would work imho.

    Hi Chris, I received mine as a Christmas present from my wife and daughter, with black dial and black leather strap and its great, looks very very nice, I´ve been wearing it a lot, and for the price it delivers quality, brand, history, and a movement you can trust. I don´t see the reason to pay for a datejust, I mean if your not obssesed with the crown.

    Hi Chris.
    I think this watch is hard to ignore. TBH it's a little 'white bread' for my taste but I could def see myself buying this as a gift for someone, particularly for someone younger. A graduation, an 18th or 21st B'day, even an engagement gift. For someone who's not necessarily in the hobby it's a great first or 'real' watch from a storied Swiss brand. It looks like quality and has the specs to be a one and done piece. I'm a bit of a Tissot fan, especially their heritage releases.

    Do you think this watch is too small for an 8" wrist? What do you think of the Tissot gent XL classic (42mm) and swissmatic (43mm)? I like the dial finish much more on this powermatic, but id love any recommendations on similar watches in bigger dial sizes.

    I don't have a dress or diver style watch in my collection. I like the Tissot lineup and plan on purchasing the Gentleman Powermatic in black dial with a bracelet. I believe it is the best value for the money out there, and a tasteful design. As far as divers go, I am looking at the Tissot SeaStar 1000 black dial, Powermatic 80.

    Super watch... and super bargain! However, there's a problem when everyone expects their new watch to be blown out at 30% off. A problem for the manufacturer - and ultimately for the customer and the industry. It's OK if the watch is an older model, out of fashion or dead inventory. That is not the case with this watch - it's fairly new and has received glowing reviews. Other UA-camrs and gurus have pointed out the downside of gray market heaven. If no one can make any real profit on the product - ultimately there may be no product. This applies to all businesses, in all product categories and all capitalist societies (which is what we live in).

    • @michaelriera6277
      @michaelriera6277 2 роки тому

      To your point, I visited the Tissot boutique and asked to see the Gentleman. The representative stated so many people come to see this watch but never buy. She asked where people are making these purchases because it’s definitely not from the boutique.

    • @citizen_wolf
      @citizen_wolf 2 роки тому +3

      I think your core assumption that Tissot (or any other brand) makes no money from the gray market is flawed. They do, or they wouldn’t sell through that channel. They’re not a charity after all.
      I think you also forget that no one but Tissot controls the distribution to said gray market. If they thought it was a real problem, they could switch off supply and sell only through their channels at the full margin.
      But until they do that, there’s nothing ‘wrong’ with buying gray.
      The customer assumes the risk / cost of any possible warranty issues for a significant upfront discount.
      Some people like that bargain. For everyone else, they can buy at the boutique and get the peace of mind that comes with a full 5 year warranty

    I've had my eye on the gentleman for a while now and I think it's a great entry-level dress watch and I don't mind the powermatic 80 in this particular watch. However, I want to see Swatch or Tissot offer a watch with a better movement that's under $1000, because I'm really don't like how they stuck the powermatic 80 into everything that's entry-level. They have the higher-end movements, which I'd like to see some of that technology filter down to sub $1000 ranges.

      I’ve heard powermatic 80 movements are hard or almost impossible to regulate. I’d like Swatch group to make available a high grade 2892 movement for their entry level watches even if it’s slightly more expensive.

    • @michaelriera6277
      @michaelriera6277 2 роки тому +2

      The watch is harder to regulate if you plan to do it yourself. However, any watchmaker with any ETA certification can easily regulate the Powermatic 80. My watchmaker regulated my Tissot with a Powermatic with no issue. It’s a good, serviceable movement.
