now you hear 3.. lug to lug is huge at 50-52mm, too big for any wrist under 7inch.. seconds hand doesnt allign with the seconds marking ( even a 10$ casio watch does allign.. thats what a watch should do ) & the bracelet doesnt have fine adjustment links. its either too loose or too tight.
@@mike15. The worst part about the watch is that Tissot intentionally modified the powermatic 80 movement to make it unserviceable. This means that every time you want to service, (every 5 years) you need to send it to tissot where they replace the entire movement for around $300.
Hey guys I have a question since you guys aldredy own this. Is 35 mm ok or you think I should get the 42 mm Chronograph or the 40mm variants? I like the watches a big big but do you guys think it’ll be a bit too big?
@@ashwells1059Rose Gold is very much in fashion and for me that’s for a couple of reasons. It’s a gateway to the world of gold but just more low key (not everyone wants too much attention) reaching out to a larger audience, it’s probably cheaper to produce and therefore sell and it’s maybe more versatile. I’ve no gold watches but I don’t want one cause it’s just not me and it’s not versatile and it’s too much attention for my liking. I’d happily have a Rootbeer Rolex before I had a full gold model. I’m a fan and not an expert though but I have heard gold trends have reduced unless it’s white gold or platinum. Trends change but it goes in a circle every few years as with most things fashion related. Hopefully that helps even 1%.
Now we are talking. Value for money , bang for buck good looking watches as per pro traders. Finally, quality content from the traders. Your viewers are mostly in thos price range. THANK YOU!
Great watch, the clasp system however can make for a less than ideal everyday watch. Finding a good sizing is difficult due to the lack of micro adjustment somedays I find my watches with butterfly clasps to tight to be comfortably worn,but adding a link would leave the watch to loose. I find no one ever mentions this when talking about watches like the prx, but it's definitely something that's helpful to know before spending hundreds on a watch.
Been looking at one with the green dial for a while. Only started collecting watches, just what I like tbh, and 300 is a lot of money, but I think you just tipped me over the edge 👍🏻
Saw the prx blue dial whilst walking past a store and it caught my eye. Ended up on the way back buying one, it was £295 if I remember but absolutely love it on the wrist.
I have the lesser version called the PR100 Titanium was an 18th birthday present from my grandparents, so simple i love it also I have zero knowledge on watches just loved the simplistic design.
I fell in love with the ice blue 35mm PRX at first sight. I thought abt buying it online as a birthday present to myself as there are no Tissot dealers where I live. Then, while in a larger city, I did stopped by an AD and tried on both the 35 & 40mm. I was disappointingly underwhelmed; for no particular reason, it just didn't speak to me on my wrist. I still love the look, its just further back on my wishlist now.
Same story, but I actually got 35mm Ice blue. I was a little disappointed at first, but it is definately comfortable on the wrist to wear every day. I still think it has the best bracelet in its price range
@@louisduffle1535 it’s a great watch I prefer in my opinion the seastar 1000 rather than the 2000 just my opinion the Sunburst blue dial is incredibly beautiful. Also a very accurate watch the bracelet is not the best in the business but for the price point it’s acceptable.

Problem is the fit when your hands well eoth the weather change its tight link. But the biggest issue I've seen is they easily scratch appart from that it's great value especially for a royal oak look. I love those watch
Powermatic. Hands down. Neither is a bad choice, but with the Powermatic, you’re grandchildren will be able to pass it down to their children. It’s a tank of a movement
Literally the first person I heard call the automatic PRX an”automatic” I have no idea why but everyone is calling it “mechanical” which it is but it’s not. Mechanical movements and automatic movements are different and it pisses me off when people call it the mechanical prx
I own 2 tissot watches...the Ballade & courtier Both with leather straps..the prx in quartz or auto is most likely the next tissot to find its way into my watch box ..but I want the 18k rose bezel 2 tone ..and a seastar in 36 mm. The seastar was the original name for the prx.
disagree.. the hands dont even properly tick at the set hourmarkers ... ( and thats literally what a watch should do.. show you the time and seconds.. not between the seconds marker wtf) and the bracelet doesnt have any fine adjustment so its either too tight or too loose.. and the lug to lug distance is waay to big.. it wears like a 50mm watch.. like a Panerai .. if you have a small wrist than 7 inch it just looks ridiculous. i have a 6,5inch wrist and had to redurn the PRX automatic exactly because of these 3 points
excuse me sir,but This PRX is a direct Reissue of the 1978/79 Tissot SeaStar! The original was quartz 35 mm and the powermatic mvt is expensive to maintain or repair. It has to be sent back to Tissot for repair or replacement!e
I had a Gshok as well and bought the PRX automatic with the blue dial as my first automatic watch. I’m absolutely in love with it, the looks of the dial is gorgeous and the bracelet is just absolutely beautiful. I still can’t believe it’s only 750€ (yes they are more expensive now)
I can’t decide between quartz and automatic… quartz seems logical, cheaper, more accurate, I don’t often wear the same watches 3 days in a row so I don’t like having to adjust the time each day I use an automatic watch yet all collectors seem to prefer automatic… but then again you don’t buy a Tissot with the view that it is an investment …. It’s more about fitting your need now….
I wish I liked it but I just don't. They styling is just to much for me. I do think for the price its value for money but would go a different model or be looking at the seiko range in the same price point
The difference is in the finishing. The tissot is mass manufactured so the finishing is not gonna be anywhere near as good as the 18 hrs they spend finishing the AP. But the tissot is a hundred times less expensive than the AP. So the question becomes is the AP worth a hundred times more than the tissot? That’s a tough sell when you have professional watch dealers repeatedly being impressed by the value of the tissot…
You never hear a bad word said about this watch

Love Tissot, Hamilton and Seiko. Real heritage. Great quality. OG styling.
So many fsntastic watches for under £1,000.
Theyre all great brands. I have 3 watches in my collection, a Seiko, a Tissot, and a Hamilton. Seriously good quality
I love the 35mm version. It is small but has such a vintage presence I’m gonna have to pick one up at some point.
I have the 35mm green version it looks so cool so comfy I wear it everyday
Same the 35mm is a good size if you don't have large wrists and is just so classic. Deffs a staple regardless of budget.
i have the 35mm ice blue version and it became my favorite to wear.

Yep, lots of “good looking” cheap, shitter watches.
Absolutely!
@JB-hq5jz ok buddy. You probably cannot even afford a Rolex. Calm down.
I got the automatic with the green dial and it's solid I especially love how it looks black until the light hits it just right
I put my buddy on that watch. Beautiful.
Tissot built an instantly iconic piece in the PRX 👌🏼
Nah
it’s litteraly a copy and paste of an already iconic watch 😂
You think it is but it's actually a copy of a watch they made in the '70s. Tissot has been around for a little bit😂
Don't forget they make a 2 tone with a solid 18k gold bezel for a first gold watch. It's like sub 2k and an automatic.
Why is it rose gold tho

Got the PRX Powermatic 80 with the black dial and I absolutely am in love with it, if the price was 3k it would still be worth it imo

That's a very valid point. Micro adjustment can make or break a watches comfort and wearability very heavily especially with integrated bracelets.
Es el mismo argumento para todos los brazaletes metálicos de cualquier marca, no solo para prx
Been looking at one with the green dial for a while. Only started collecting watches, just what I like tbh, and 300 is a lot of money, but I think you just tipped me over the edge 👍🏻

Brilliant, glad you’re enjoying it
Got the same one. Such a great watch! Currently looking at the green dial and the new ice blue dial on the automatic
I have the tissot t035 courtier day date, love it with the orange stitching leather band and orange accents around the times
I would defo splash out for the automatic. Something so analogue, and eternal about mechanical movements
I want the automatic one
Next goal watch for me
I want to gift it myself at the end of the year to celebrate my success in photography
Everyone thinks it's close to the oysterquartz. I've always thought it's closer to the Vacheron Constantin 222.

how about non-repairable but replaceable movement on a quartz and plastic parts on the powermatic is it still worth to buy

Is the quartz or the automatic one better?
Problem is the fit when your hands well eoth the weather change its tight link. But the biggest issue I've seen is they easily scratch appart from that it's great value especially for a royal oak look. I love those watch

definetly iconic watch
Great watches from Tissot and the auto version is a must have daily! 😎
Casio edifice EFR is another good starter watch, its also half the price

Is this the 35mm version or 40mm
35mm automatic may be one of the best watches ever made.
Its a sleeper keeper!
Soon as I save up I'm getting the 2k option with the 18k bezel
My Father bought me one, as a child❤❤❤
I saw it last week, the dial is just great 😃

Rado diastar or prx?

Is that the 40 or 35mm?
Fluted bezel in white gold with more dial choices please Tissot 🙏
This is a great Rolex oyster quartz homage.
The escapement (pallet fork and escape wheel) is made of some kind of “plastic”.
Something to consider 🤔
35 or 40mm??

Its 40mm but wear like a 42mm. You should try it out if you haven't.
It wears big due to the lug width, feels like a 44 to me
The 40 mm on his wrist looks good. For tall guys like me with big wrists 40 mm is the way to go.

Same here
I told my loved ones if I ever buy a PRX they need to sit me down for an reevaluation of my life and my values
“Sits fantastic”… just like his vocabulary
the shape came before the oysterquartz

This is a very decent watch for the price, but I just don't care for integrated bracelets.
Great value for the money, but for my taste the bracelet is too flimsy.
Fair enough
😮well said my guy
Do they come in 40mm?
Yes
