- I did a hit piece on the 40mm PRX a year back, but the 35 is a different story. Am I finally a fan? Let's find out.

On November 1st, I'll start a new job at Tissot's flagship store in Rome, and I was told I'd get to choose a watch to wear and keep. I'm either going for the 35mm PRX with the pearl dial, or whatever catches my eye once I'm there. So thrilled!
Congrats!
That’s so cool, congrats……now you got me over here pretending I’m you, and figuring out which watch I would pick.
Wowwww you need a buddy to work with? Gz and have a fun work experience in a watch company, and also in Rome if its not your home town!
I would also pick 35mm MoP or a Gentleman the day they'll do a a 37-38mm
Really dumb. Heritage 1948, Telemeter 1938 and many.. many other better options
I just got a prx few days ago, while there a Tissot visodate with black dial and gold indices really caught my eye, I’d really recommend that as a dressy alternative!!
Nice video Max! Although I don't own one, I'm a big fan of the colors of the PRX especially the mother of pearl. By the way, it was nice to meet you at the Windup Watch Fair in New York few weekends ago. I'm the one who said hi to you by the Oris booth!
I got the Emerald Green PRX Quartz 35mm for my birthday this year and it’s so beautiful. I love wearing it and looking at it.
same
I believe the disposable movement even in Tudor’s Kenissi is more of a brand retention in a way. They just want to make sure that the mother brand (Tudor, Tissot, Swatch, etc) gives their customers the “promise” of function just like the first day the watch was bought. Can you work on those movements? Of course, but they’re not in the caliber of JLC or Patek to do it at a high cost per their target customer base. 😊
I chose an ice-blue quartz 35mm. I prefer the sunburst dial to the waffle and I'm happy to have a watch that's always ready to go. The accuracy on mine is insane, gaining about 5 seconds a YEAR!
I agree. I am not a fan of waffle dials either, and I do like smaller watches (38 is my ideal), so who knows. I just may go for one of the quartz version!
@@freddolman1494 I got mine from an authorized dealer and got a good discount; don't pay full price!
@@freddolman1494 I recently got the 35mm quartz. It actually wears more like a 37/38 due to the lugs. It wears perfectly on pretty much any wrist.
citizen tsuyosa gang gaining 5 sec a day. even counting i am more precise
The 35 is the move. Totally agree with you, just too much blank space on that dial in the 40. It’s boring
That’s right. Im a guy who likes to see more metal than dial.
35mm icy blue owner here. I do hope prx will come out with yellow dial in the future.. Like Citizen tsuyosa. Love it..
Hello! Bought myself the 40mm ice blue dial and absolutely love it. When I asked if it is serviceable (seeing all these reviews on the PRX), my jeweller insisted he got all the gear to do it without having to send it back to Tissot. Argued that he does know the Powermatic 80 very well being a movement on a lot of models he sells. Don't know what to believe in the end. I guess I will find out in the future?... In the meantime, I will just enjoy it!
What Tissot, and many other do, is swap in an already serviced movement. The one you sent in with your watch eventually gets serviced and cycled into another in the future.
"tissot" backwards is "toss it", and that's how they service their movements
🤣🤣
lol
I Love my 35mm PRX and get solid compliments for it also. I have the dark blue one.. should i go with another color too? If yes, what would u suggest?
My wrist size is 18cm. I went with the 35mm without hesitation as I have a vast collection of vintage watches this size & smaller. It’s a terrific looking watch! 😎👍🏻
What color you went for?
@@formidable2368 The green! 👍🏻😎
@@andrewd7586 can’t decide between green and mother of pearl colour…
I'm going with the black 👍
@@Big_Bruv_Innit sent it back and got the 40mm ice blue..love it,35mm was to small
I picked up the green dial in a Sale. Didn't need a new watch but couldn't resist at 40%off.. sat in the box for about 3 weeks and was about to return it. Especially that I'm not pro plastic parts and watches meant to be discarded when they're broken. I have a lot of vintage watches. But I thought, why not wear it and sell after if I don't like it. Is been on the wrist ever since replacing a more expensive watch. The dial is absolutely beautiful at this price point. The MoP is also quite beautiful but slightly less an everyday and harder to read. Mine settled to about -4s/day
Good video. Even with my Seiko's. I just swap out the 4R35 movements with a new one after 10years
I got the 35mm quartz with the light blue dial. And to be honest, I think it is the most beautiful dial available on the PRX. It stands out so much, and I can’t stop looking at it!
Also the quartz is slimmer, which is always a good thing
Congrats, enjoy it!
How much is your wrist?, because the ice Blue color is the best color...
Gold 35 quartz owner here. Tissot did the gold finish really well. Doesn’t look bright and fake/ cheap.
Great choice 👍
I have a Tissot PRX 40mm and absolutely love it. I also learned a lot from this video. I did not know about servicing until you enlightened me. I also am thinking about looking at strap options which I had no idea of until you brought it up.
Glad to help! 🤝
This movement can 100% be repaired, serviced and regulated!! The time and cost maybe a little inhibitive but any watch repairer can do it. It’s a common myth and I’m not too sure where it came from 😂
I have the Ice Blue automatic PRX in 35mm and it's a fantastic watch. Love the light-play of the dial
Better than the quartz?
Cuz im concerned about the service issue
@abdulrahmanassous2873 for me, yeah. The dial on the quartz versions are too plain.
I bought the gold in 40 and 35 to see which one I liked better. I found myself wishing there was something in between. I ended up keeping the 40, the 35 was just too small for me. It is a stunner of a piece tho.
For the gold, I agree. I do think that for my wrist (7”) it would be perfect at a 36-38mm. It’s still a great looking watch. I bought the Silver with ice blue dial in 40mm and the gold in 35mm to compare sizes. I ended up keeping both lol. The Sliver works so much better in the larger size while the gold is better smaller.
Though I am more of a Le Locle person, I enjoyed this review. I love your analogies of the gold PRX!
I've had the green 35mm Powermatic since launch and I only started regretting it when I saw the gold reference. VC222 vibes for real! But the PRX has a position in my collection as something that can dressed up or down and worn without too much concern. It's also about 3-4mm smaller than the other watches in my collection so it's always the go to pick if I want to wear something smaller that day.
Such a sweet watch 👌
Great review and info on the service of these watches. Now it's making me think twice.
Waited and waited for the 35 auto in gold. Finally got it. 🎉 Wear it proudly when I want maximum bling.
That's the one 🤌
Others have said that the escapement in this movement is regulated by adjusting screws on the balance wheel (changing its inertia)… so it can be regulated, it’s just a different method than the 28-24.
Good luck convincing your watchmaker. It does not have a free sprung balance
@@WatchCrunchOfficiala free sprung balance wheel is literally one of the headlining features of the PM80. You are constantly lying and spreading misinformation.
I have 2 35mm PRXs, the quartz gold one (bought before the automatic version came out) that I use mostly for the beach / swimming and the powermatic80 deep blue for night time chill outdoor time. Solid watch no matter how you look at it. No better option under 1k for a classic vintage look.
Great video. I could never really like the PRX too much. The dial is beautiful, but the case design is not my favorite. The size was also an issue. 40mm is too big because of the long lug-to-lug, but 35 is a tidbit too small. I ended up buying the Maen Manhattan 37 and I absolutely love it.
Maen is the Truth
Hi Max,
As always, a great video. The question is this Tissot, or the Lorier Falcon? Does the Falcon have plastic too?
Thanks for your help?
Omar
Part 2 is another reason I like my country. I recently got an old seiko 5 with the 7s36 from the early 2000s I think, serviced for just around $10. It was my cousin's watch that his grandfather had bought for him new as a gift for completing his degree.
What country?
Pakistan
@@Sturnburn772
Thanks Max. I have a 34mm watch so 35mm is not a stretch but still a bit too small. The watch looks nice though, I have one Tissot in my collection.
Agreed, it could stand to be a couple mils bigger
There are myths here that have already been dismissed. Biggest disinformation propagated over and over is that the movement somehow cannot be serviced. The movement can be and will be serviced. At Tissot they just get swapped to a different movement and the one from your watch will get serviced and eventually be used in another watch for faster turnout. As for plastic not a big deal in this price range. It works well in a modern setting. Anyway, nice video, thank you.
Where does this watch box come from. Looks really nice! Thank you!
I am so tempted to get a gold prx 35 as it reminds me so much of the VC 222 and I will probably never spend so much money on a watch in the near future. The tissot however is tempting...
hi dr thank you for the great video i was wondering if you can review or talk about tudor 1926
My wrist is exactly 6" and I am 5'6". Which size should I get in both the PRX and the Everytime? I want to get both of those watches but am not sure what size to get. I want the gold since it goes with my warm skin tone. Gold tends to be overly blingy so keeping it minimal is key. But minimal can be too dainty or feminine too though so there is a fine line to walk when sizing the jewelry item. That includes watches.
Oh the 35mm absolutely. I have 7 inch wrists and my 40mm is VERY close to being too big, it really is a chunky watch because of the end links. So for a 6inch wrist the 35mm would be by far the better option
No need to worry about plastic part as PRX is a fun and casual watch which I will only occasionally wear during weekend. The original rubber strap is very comfortable. I have a blue 40mm PRX which looks very handsome and solid.
A thousand dollar "fun" watch is hard for many to justify though
A $99 dollar Steeldive SD1953 316L/sapphire/ceramic/NH35 sub homage is my "fun" watch
@@thegorn yes, I do know that there are lots of homage watches that are lesser than 100 dollars. However they are not original and doesn’t have real funs after wearing some time. Mostly you will regret to buy these cheap watches.
First❤
Got a 150cm wrist and i like the prx so much, tho i think the prx diameter is too big for me since it is integrated so it wears big this is so cool that they release a 35, in right time ill get one as for now i have a old seiko 5 budget😅
Oh you'll love the 35 it sounds like 👍
I have 6.8 inch wrists, the 35 looks lady size if not boy sized on my wrist, loved the look of the 40 mm, the gold looks rich and shiny, specially with the petit tapisserie dial, having brands like IWC, JLC, Baume & Mercier, Nomos etc the Tissot surely is levels below, but damn it it looks hot.
I have a 6.75 inch wrist and I think the PRX 35 looks larger than I would like. I guess it depends on what you consider normal.
@@robertbrandywine I want the biggies, 42, 43, 45, anything below 42 to me is ladies
@@NoName-bb2puThen move on. This is for guys without issues.
I love the 35 mm and I have a 7 inch wrist. Also, please cite your source that Tudor swaps its movements.
And this is why the quartz PRX is the one to get. Much cheaper to begin with and will last a lifetime.
Not a bad point
People have been hating on the PRX a lot this year. I suspect a lot of that is due to its marketplace success. If it wasn’t as popular it probably would have been the opposite with UA-camrs saying, “hey! This watch isn’t that bad” kinda thing. I like the colors they are putting out and the chronograph looks great to me. I’ve NEVER been a gold watch guy and an ALL gold watch is not my cuppa joe. My favorite is the 40mm green powermatic. As understated as a PRX can get and will hold a place in my watch box for a long time to come.
The problem with the green is that, as he said, it looks black or navy blue when you are inside.
I’m thinking of the gold prx but need to see it in person first. As long as it’s not orange orange gold then I’m good
Amazing video! So many PRX!
The only way to do it!
i bought the mop as my first "expensive" watch (im a student ok) and its just perfect
Where did you buy it and how much was it?
@@Xxiluv2snip3xX it was from chrono 24 and I paid 560€
The 35 fits you perfect and look great in gold.
Yes, thank you!
I really think that the quartz version of this watch is the way to go. Great style great accuracy. I had no idea that Tudor throws out their movements and replaces them with new. It seems a terrible waste to me.
Better to completely fix a problem than treat symptoms. Especially when it comes to your personal pieces.
yess i say the same thing, some colours look better in the quartz version, like the navy blue and gold
I've heard different stories about the service of the PM80 movements. Yes some have the plastic parts and those parts are not serviceable but can they be replaced? I have read different views on "service", I've read that these plastic bits are a module that is replaced as well as replacing the complete movement. It's probably worth checking the price of the full major "service" with Tissot as well. In the UK a full service will at a local watchmaker could well cost a few hundred pounds for a mechanical movement so it's worth considering is it really worth the cost of a service on a watch that cost a few hundred pounds. Another consideration is that a movement swap is in some cases are cheaper than a full service simply due to the time it takes. All interesting stuff. As for Tudor replacing movements this is also interesting, for a COSC movement that's fine but for the METAS ones that are tested fully cased so I wonder if they will be viewed at METAS from new so do not include the accuracy of a replacement movement. This whole subject is a can of worms. I guess we'll find out at some point.
I went to the Tissot store and tried on the 35mm and 40mm. The 40mm was actually alright on my wrist but the 35mm felt "right" when I tried it on and looked in the mirror, I'm not a fan of large watches (not that I think 40mm is too large) so this probably also contributed to my choice. I'm also quite a fan of vintage pieces anyway. I'm also a big fan of gold. I know some people are gold haters but it's about what I like and if I'm spending just under a grand (I went for the automatic) I'm getting what I like, not what other collectors like. Interestingly, I wasn't a fan of the waffle effect when I was first considering buying a PRX, for that reason I was going to get a quartz but then the more I watched reviews and videos of it, the more it grew on me. I can't say this enough, go and try it on in store before you buy. You can then compare it to other models, see how it wears, speak with the assistants etc. The guy I spoke to in store was super nice and understood how I felt with the two sizes. Rather than project the 40mm onto me like some guys do, he listened and understood that the 35mm is preferable to some people even if the 40mm still looks good on their wrist. I saw these straps on Instagram and I think you either love or hate them. Personally I hate them, I think it cheapens the look.
Hello , j’ai une question le pvd or est ce que la couleur partira dans le temp ou rapidement ?
I’ve admittedly disliked the PRX (and Royal Oak… sue me) until I tried on the 35mm gold powermatic. Not sure what happened but I kinda like it now. It’s pretty fun and I like the flashy style, which is generally the opposite of my personal style.
does the automatic also have a problem with the second hand alignment like the quartz?
U mentioned plastic is used in the base version..In which model plastic is actually used..
Did you mean 35mm Gold colour one..
Thank you.
Hi, just to get it right. Is the pallet fork a plastic part also on the 35 or not? I service my watches myself and I wouldn’t buy an unserviceable watch
The movement IS serviceable and can be regulated if you know how to regulate a free sprung balance. The lubrication of the pallet is moebius 9030!
Never liked the PRX much but that gold 35 is everything, definitely love the retro dad vibe. Agree though that the movement is going to rub people the wrong way, myself included.
So good!
The fact that the quartz is thinner and a lot cheaper is a no brainer.
The best prx I’ve seen a was a Franken build of the gold bracelet/case and the mop dial. Tissot should take some notes
Holy 🤯
I was surprised in store how well the quartz hit the indices , yet online ?????
I don’t see Royal Oak, I see VC 222. I am not surprised by the plastic, more surprised that others haven’t put it in movements more. Disposable culture. But I agree the idea with a mechanical watch is for it not to be disposable.
Dude, WHO told you the Powermatic movement is disposable and cannot be regulated????? That’s not true! It’s NOT a Sistem51! The powermatic CAN BE regulated! Take a close look at the balance wheel arms and you will spot two eccentric screws which can be adjusted to change the rate!!!! And the powermatic movement can be serviced just like any 2824 or C80!!!
I regulated my PRX to +3 sec/day!
Swatchgroup certified watchmaker here!
And is it harder to work on it than a 2824 ?
Show me a watchmaker that will touch the thing
@@WatchCrunchOfficial Non-authorized watchmakers will be hesitant because of false information on UA-cam! Regulating a Powermatic is based on the same principles like any other free sprung balance like a Rolex or Omega. If a watchmaker doesn’t know about this then he should not tinker with watches at all. It’s basic watchmaking knowledge! And there’s nothing wrong with the “plastic escapement”! The lighter weight will almost eliminate positional timing errors plus there’s less friction between the two pieces and 100% antimagnetic which in combination with the Nivachron hairspring is a perfect combo!
@@Marc-ox6wl Not really. The mechanical principles are the same as any 2824. What’s different is the regulating procedure. Any real watchmaker should know how to regulate a free sprung balance. But if it ran accurate before servicing and you service the movement and don’t screw up the hairspring it will run accurate again as the adjustment stays the same during cleaning.
Finally someone with internal watch knowledge, Thank you!!!@@andyc6736
PRX in 35mm is the way to go.
The upgraded dial offered in the mechanical option is the way to go.
I feel like servicing is still the dirty little secret of the watch world. We're told that "any local watchmaker" can service these affordable movements, and that they are "maintenance free" for many years. The truth is that it's hard to find someone local to service watches like this, and that simply replacing the movement is standard practice. It's sad, really. Unless you spend $5k plus, this is probably going to be your experience.
There's an idea for a video! Get someone to break a click spring, or install a wonky date wheel in a cheap watch. Take it to 10 local watchmakers and see what the experience is like. How much it costs for a service. Will they even do it?
Sad but true, ok let me find 10 watchmakers 😉
Wo kann ich das Kautschukband mit Faltschliesse kaufen..?

@@WatchCrunchOfficial Thank you!
40 works great for me with my 7.3 in wrist. Still enjoy one of the best bargains going.
Yeah you can pull it off 👍
I have a modest factual correction to make to your commentary, as well as a few other decidedly mixed comments on the Powermatic/C07. Firstly a minor frustration: the polymer escapement parts are so *quiet* that many timegraphers will not reliably hear the movement ticking. Oh well. The factual correction is the Tissot cost per C07 overhaul: i had SwatchUSA in New Jersey do my six year old Seastar 1000 for $180 18 months ago. Frankly, i wanted the seals replaced since i do expose this watch to water.
Anyway, in doing so i had an exchange with the watch maker. The central point is that the Powermatic/C07's are designed for "module" replacement, the most important module being the 'escapement module' (which is the rachet, escapement wheel, and balance wheel/spring). They don't swap out the whole movement, but rather just this module and, honestly, that makes a heck of a lot of sense for plastic parts. They do regulate them though at that point and for your $180 you will likely receive a COSC running watch (although they don't guarantee that). You will also get a "new" three year guarantee.
George Daniels spent almost 30 years of his life perfecting the co-axial escapement to obviate the need for lubricants and ETA does that with polymer parts. i have a hard time criticizing that. But i still find the lack of user regulation frustrating and have gone to $300 Chinese models with very good PT5000/2824 clone movements instead. The dials and cases are much better than Tissots too, if generic homages for the most part.
But i still have the Seastar and a Chemin Tourrelles chronometer with the C07 . . . it is a hobby.

nice review
I love the watchbox . Where can I find that one?
Delugs
So if I understand correctly they will not last long?
Sooo... what do I do when py PRX is done after a decade but I still want it? How much is the "service"?
They'll swap out the movement instead of servicing
Can you share the link from the watch case in this video? Thanks
Delugs
I got the 35mm gold PVD when it came out, and I must say I knew they were coming out with a 35mm powermatic :( No ways I'm buying two of the same watch.
They toying with us!
You know with the gator strap it kinda looks like a Bell and Ross with the big dial.
man if my PRX timing were off a bit too much after i wore it for 2-3 years, i had to throw the whole movement away instead of just nudging the regulator adjuster a notch
Shame right?
There's a lot more to the movement than the escapement. The Powermatic 80 is perfectly serviceable, and SGUS will do it for $195, which is well below the price of the watch.
I have 35mm white quartz and 40mm green powermatic. I’m thinking to get 35mm gold powermatic,
Max, when you say the 35mm is 12.5% smaller than the 40%, that somewhat misrepresents the size difference. You are equating size to diameter. I suggest the visual difference is more apparent by area covering the wrist. That difference? The 40mm is 30.6% greater in area than the 35mm.
the 40 looks small to me, got the chrono, sold the 40 and never looked backed. My most complimented watch by far.
Yow CrunchyBoss, I finally understand what/how Powermatic is because of this video, thanks man!
Team work 🤝
This same dude that said he “hated” this time piece lol
This is same for powermatic 80 silcium gentleman watch ?
No, that one is the higher version of Powermatic 80. No plastic parts afaik.
I have a love hate relationship for the PRX...the 35mm is definitely the one to go for tho.
Describes my feelings...
I think it’s an attractive watch. I’d go with the MOP.
She's pretty, wears small
Not a fan of the PRX. But at 35? Not sure how would that look in my wrist. Guess would have to see it in person.
Wears a bit bigger, especially the gold
I tried it on and it looks and feels amazing on my 6.25 inch wrist. Give it a shot! I ultimately sold my gentleman powermatic 80 for the 35mm prx and have zero regrets
they need a 37mm now!
Tissot should've given us a proper movement 😒
The watch is AMAZING! The movement... come on man! 😂😂
Polymer, like a Glock frame is polymer. Hmm, those Glocks seem to work.
If the plastic escapement wears out after x number of years, why can't you just replace those parts? If you want to regulate the movement how is it more difficult than adjusting timing screws? I understand it isn't something a typical watch owner can do, but a watchmaker should be able to do it as part of a service.
If you like the 35mm PRX, you'll love the 36mm Twelve by CW. Better watch, aesthetically, qualitatively and mechanically.
Amen, CW are killing it.
I do like CW 12 36mm suits my wrist but the price and especially availability issue in my country. I would say 35mm prx quartz is the best choice to experience the cult
It is indeed more expensive, but CW will ship to most countries I believe. @@tjgan-hn2ib
Mechanically sure. But aesthetically CW looks like a PRX that got a bad plastic surgery job.
Get hands on with one, my friend, and I suspect you'll change your mind.@@Sturnburn772
I wish they would do the mother of pearl in a 40mm
35mm is a size your grandma would wear to church.
I won’t get into the size debate (35 is too small IMHO even w an avg size wrist) - but all watch guys should have 1 of these Genta inspired designs. I went with the Citizens Tsuyosa w the bright yellow/gold dial. Great fun watch.
I have been wondering for a good few years how many people, like myself, are patiently waiting for the Genta-age to come to an end.
Dangit... i went with the 35mm quartz version because i watched your other video like 100 times... now this?! Noooooo 😭
"i got em"
It's laughable to say a watch with 80-90% parts interchangeability with an ETA 2824 is "unserviceable," afaik there's absolutely nothing stopping a competent watchmaker taking one apart and servicing it. Sure, you might need specialist equipment to *regulate* the watch, but that's somewhat different to pure servicing. The argument is whether or not it's *economical* to service a Powermatic80. And if you want to have that discussion, then all Seiko 5s fall under the "the movement is disposable" label too, along with many other watches.
Successfully moulding and producing a plastic part to tolerances to tell accurate time is not easy, and honestly I think it's cool. Originally I was a downer on the movement as well, but the more I actually learned about the movement and its history the more and more I realised it's an interesting movement that deserves respect.
What specialist equipment does it take to regulate? AFAIK it just takes a balance wheel holder and a screwdriver. It would take more time, though, because you have to make an adjustment and then reinstall the balance wheel and test your change.
@@robertbrandywine I suppose so, but I wouldn't really want to try and regulate a free sprung balance when it can just be factory reset, but that's me
I check that small prx in a year. It will be worth half the price now. Prx is supposed to be a quartz anyway.
I have the 40mm auto in sky blue but I have large wrists so it wears well. The only thing that bothers me is this: I love the leather strap option. I get why the watch does not come with one but I ought to be able to get a factory strap for 60 to 70 dollars. Not the 225 to 300 they go for. That is half the cost of the watch. Way over priced
I got the factory leather strap from Tissot AD for 450HKD (~60USD). Where did you hear that they go for 225 to 300 (I’m assuming you’re talking USD)?
My original Tissot strap is just 70-80 SGD
My oem leather strap was 60$ usd? Where are you getting this
I have a large wrist as a human that is constructed in alternate fashion. The 40mm looks good on my wrist.
Let me get that denim jacket. Link please!
Sorry, but I'm still not sold on the plastic escapement. Sure, Tudor may replace rather than repair, but that does not change the fact that in 50 years, you could service that movement if it has a sentimental value to you. I guess, the other side of the argument is that at 500$, a watch should be considered disposable. Well, that will depend on the individual. I do not share that approach.
The PRX had too much hype and as with anything when that happens a fatigue stage kicks in and snobs start to hate it. After a while when things settle the real reviews pop up like this one and the real value is appreciated. The PRX is a beatiful watch. That 70s design is just perfect. The 40mm was too big for me. The 35mm looks great (i have the auto green one). A 38mm would be simply just perfect.
bro already 35mm look like 37 38 mm
@@berkesargn5756 hi there.. If its the case then the 40mm looks like a 42mm watch. The essence of my comment is that a mid point seems to be IMO a sweet spot
@@racing7782 hi Yes, I wear the 42.5 mm Seiko 5 Sports on my 16.5 cm wrist, it is nice, but the 40 mm PRX did not fit my wrist.
Good job seeing the silver lining in the powermatic80 movement but Eva Longoria! What did the old lady do to you to deserve that? 😂
I'm old
Every watch repair person over talked to says it can be serviced. So unless all of them are bullshitting me I’m pretty sure it can be serviced lol but yeah I’m pretty sure a full movement swap is the better route to go but who knows if that movement would be easy to find in 10 years.
