All about the Tissot PRX - Quartz, Powermatic, and Chronograph

[@kofiofosu9051]

Bought the powematic 80 for my 20 year old son’s birthday and the Chronograph for my 22 year old son’s birthday. Great thing is that if they don’t wear them…I will.

[@WatchUnwind]

Love my prx automatic. Such a solid watch for the money and I’d say even punches above its class a bit. Tissot finally getting some of the respect they deserve

[@ashchraibi1312]

Just bought a PRX Chronograph. Absolutely love it. What a gorgeous piece of art 😍

[@DMBVR4]

Its almost like they tried as hard as they could to get that quartz seconds hand as perfectly centered between minute markers as possible.

[@BruceWilliams]

Macro was of my first prx. The bad one

[@chriskim7123]

Lmao that's what I thought too. It's like that on all models I saw at the local Tissot boutique. So I bought a powermatic one.(Maybe that was the plan 😈)

[@NicholasSadlier]

I'm really drawn to that chronograph even though I'm not really a chronograph fan. I think that speaks volumes. 👌

[@christianboulay4722]

Quite opposite for me this time, I always end up purchasing chronograph watches. But the glaring white subdials, piercing out of the velvety blue dial...is awkward. I'll probably buy the black dial.

[@steelsteez6118]

Great video Bruce! Becoming a big fan of your channel! I also love that you don't sensor your comments or withhold them for approval. There's a semi big watch KZbinr that does that and it just turned me off. Ended up unsubscribing. Let the people speak freely! If they want to knock a watch because it's not their cup of tea, let them! And that's what I love about your channel. Ever since I've been watching your videos, youve never done silly stuff like that. Huge respect goes out to you.

[@BruceWilliams]

I appreciate that a lot, thank you. To be honest though I have keywords set up that will pull vulgar comments. But its just to keep profanity out of the comments. Agree with me or disagree is all good, in fact encouraged. It just needs to be articulated in a civilized manner :)

[@mrlong6267]

I just got mines 2 days ago and it wears very nice. Picked up the powermatic with blue dial. Highly recommend and it’s light AF compared to my other time pieces

[@TheGunDude]

I have the powermatic 80 version with a blue dial and it really is incredible for the price. Even at $1000 it would still be a good deal. Very hard to beat that watch.

[@pbm8871]

Totally agree mine is grabbing a whole load of time from high end pieces .

[@tiimsmiith1130]

That chrono is so nice I'd go as far as saying it looks as good as a daytona! If you gave me the option to choose one to wear I'd choose the prx chrono.

[@randyhamzah7511]

I just bought my PRX Powermatic 80 and just fell in love with it😍 My previous choice was the Quartz PRX, but after a few visit at the jeweller and try one on my wrist, I don’t see the appeal strong enough as the Powermatic 80. In my opinion, Plain sunburst dial on Quartz PRX looks good on photo, but not that good once I wear it on my wrist. I don’t know why, but that’s just me I guess🤷🏻‍♂️

[@junboklee4532]

Best affordable watch that will make any watch collector happy regardless of whether the collection has high end pieces or not. This watch makes you happy!

[@jonathansmith283]

visited nyc over July 4th . there, I checked the Tissot prx . it was very nice - at $ 650 , nice watch. went home found an AD and picked it up - the prx green waffle dial , and at a 20% discount. it is in the rotation - very nice watch. ~ JDS/CT

[@Macm73]

The Tissot PRX is without doubt the best bang for your buck watch on the market at the moment .Not one of the obvious go to brands but this one is a real head turner IMO.

[@Mister19Eleven]

I’ve never owned a Tissot but always wanted one to complement that pre luxury mid range of my collection. This is a really sharp refined piece and I’m usually not a fan of integrated bands. I usually like changing straps around but I don’t see any desire to do that with this. Now I’m just stuck choosing between the blue and the white chrono models. Great job showing off the details and light play. Thanks Bruce.

[@BruceWilliams]

You bet Mister T

[@anonymouswatchguy4223]

Great video! I agree.. these all offer tremendous value for money..and the Chrono version is also my favorite

[@NoizeTank]

No mention or showing of the 35mm Quartz version? As someone with 6.5” wrists, I much prefer it over the oversized blocky-ness if the 40mm. The shape of the case on the 35mm makes it wear larger and the smaller bracket links mean that there is a more elegant shimmering effect on hand movements (think wrist rolls).

[@BruceWilliams]

35mm is a great option for those that prefer a smaller wearing watch!

[@jimwatchyyc]

I have a 6.25” inch wrist and find the 40mm on leather fits well and looks appropriately sized.

[@daveho852]

agreed. the chronograph keeps glittering wherever light is on. super nice!

[@mitchmatic8029]

Very thoughtful casual review. I do love my chrono. And Richard and Saltzman’s are fantastic.

[@joebuckmaster1908]

Fantastic channel, thank you for your service to the watch community, very much appreciated. Never miss an episode !

[@BruceWilliams]

I appreciate that Joe

[@TheBigWrist]

The quartz has the best dial IMO, and that's the one in my rotation. The Chrono is a close second and I will eventually find one on the secondary for a discount.

[@chriswatchreviews4752]

Teddy had a video yesterday from the Tissot Headquarters. They have a 35mm auto version coming out at the end of the year.

[@BruceWilliams]

Awesome news

[@welcomewrist]

I hope they introduce different dial textures to the powermatic. The waffle pattern is nice, however, I would much prefer a cleaner and simple dial. Still a great looking watch and I'm sure many appreciate the design.

[@frankbcn2223]

The quartz for me, especially when you rotate watches a nice looking grap and go watch. Also the version most authentic based on the original from the 70-ies.

[@rohanbuck2185]

They've announced that a 35mm Automatic is on the way soon.

[@petrparizek6575]

PRX has reignited my interest in TIssot and watches in general. It is a really nice design. Shame about the missaligned quartz, which lets it down. I think the quartz version is the closest to the original and would be my choice. But the chrono is absolutely awesome! That will be megahit.

[@jimwatchyyc]

I have the quartz in blue leather, I just wish the sapphire crystal had AR coating because it reflects a lot of light.

[@mdesmet9111]

I really like the Powermatic but just wish they bring out a white dial version without the gold-coloured bezel.

[@Robespierres_Ghost]

Really want to give the Prx a try.

[@popthetrunkk6500]

Does the seconds hand tick or just stay at the 12 position? That’s why i’m not a big chronograph guy. I like seeing the hand sweep

[@joebuckmaster1908]

Tissot: on the chronograph, offer a no date. And a different band. Inexpensive changes to increase sales.

[@sampokokkonen4919]

I wish they had the PM80 with the blue dial from the quartz. That would make it perfect. The waffle dial isn't my thing. Thanks for taking a look at the whole series!

[@mrlong6267]

Honestly you can barely notice the waffle dial when you wear it. Go for it. I did

[@craigdlazarus]

40mm green dial Powermatic for me please....Thx Bruce....keep 'em coming

[@vamark7751]

Once you decide that luxury brands with true in house movement are just not worth the insulting prices out there, hard to get excited by mid range watches- just not much difference between them and entry level watches these days. Solid watches out there w comparable movements around $500 for mechanical watches.

[@strawhatdann]

Trying to decide whether to buy the blue dial chrono or just go straight for an Omega speedmaster racing for a little more than double the price.

[@lvbajt]

I happen to be heading with my friend to get the PRX as his first automatic watch today. Looking forward to checking it out

[@Halsey29]

Imagine the Valijoux on a gentleman case I think it would be a home run in my opinion, although love the PRX I had and sold one but I am still going to hold off for the PRX

[@whatsup4616]

Really like the Chrono, it’s probably is too big for my wrist, gonna find out soon….I see the blue dial more on the second hand market than the “Panda”…

[@rickhammel9541]

are the bracelets the same thickness on the chrono vs. the regular ones? thanks

[@AldoFelt]

Such a hit, i regret selling mine.

[@jelsner5077]

I'd love to see a side by side comparison between the 36mm and the 40mm variations.

[@BruceWilliams]

I'll see what I can do

[@ddeboy002]

When I look at Tissot's website I don't see you listed as an Authorized seller-hence, voiding the warranty.

[@watchexplorer321]

Great Review 👍

[@sanbrons]

Is Tissot going to release 35mm Powermatic 80 model? I have small wrist. T.T

[@nimmichagger165]

The second hand not hitting the minute markers is an absolute deal breaker for me. Even at this price point, this is sacrilege in the watch world.

[@Danlikescheesteaks]

The chrono fits you perfectly. What is your wrist like 7.25?

[@BruceWilliams]

Spot on

[@Danlikescheesteaks]

@@BruceWilliams Nice! I’ve been wondering if I can pull it off with my 6.5 inch wrist. I think it’s probably pushing the limit of what I can get away with

[@jwillwork3683]

That VC looking better then the PRX 😏😍🤗

[@BruceWilliams]

Lol it better it cost 20 grand

[@antsfur]

Nice video, is the caseback sCrew on or push on? Thanks

[@RobinsWatchJourney]

Can you find out when the auto movement will be available in 35mm?

[@neilaltschuler6064]

Good competition to Omega

[@ddeboy002]

Bruce will the chrono come in green?

[@vric]

I got the newest Quartz Green Dial and he hand all align correctly also. They might have corrected it on later model?! Not a fan of quartz, but the dial color is awesome and not available on autos.

[@mcraulv2024]

How long is the code good for ?

[@whatsup4616]

Love the PRX Automatic, just don’t like wearing a watch that’s so popular….I would rather go for the Tissot Gentleman…also popular but less seen I think….

[@giamgiamgg]

Next, PRX Meca-Quartz Chrono? xD

[@jodysilvia2]

Bruce i tried to buy the Tissot prx powermatic but the coupon code didn't work, just so you know.

[@BruceWilliams]

I'll reach out to the store and see what's going on.

[@BruceWilliams]

I contacted Richard and he verified the code is active and has been used several times. If you have any issues you are welcome to contact the customer service phone or email and they can set you up directly with the discounted price. 401-946-0920 or [e-mail]

[@pth8888]

35mm automatic version coming soon…

[@ddeboy002]

the seconds hand is off and that would drive absolutely insane. Fix it!

[@fabfour289]

Tissot pls ditch the 4.30 date window on the chrono..

[@chriskim7123]

Quartz = Zenith Defy / Automatic = AP Royal Oak.

Love your videos Bruce but please, please, please get rid of your mispronunciation of the word Tissot... The stress is on the first syllable not the second, FFS!
