I got burned with a fake Tissot PRX Powermatic 40mm! How to tell genuine from replica or clone.

WOW! I had no idea PRX fakes existed.

All fakes are Made in India and China

[@alanwright3172]

I bought a new green dial PRX on Ebay along with a black dial , didn't like them, and tried to sell them on. I was alerted by a "friend" that the green one was fake. The only giveaway was the mounting of the escapement otherwise they were identical. I contacted PayPal, who contacted Ebay and once the watch was returned to Ebay I was fully refunded. That's the second time PayPal has saved my ass with watches.

Can you tell the name of the seller and how much you bought them please bro I dont't wanna get scammed

What about the serial number - if you tried registering this watch on the Tissot website I’d imagine it would return invalid?

[@joe23526]

I didn't even look it up, I'm sure it would be invalid

[@AmandaSchulte-s9d]

It's sad that watches that look good cost over 1k+. amzwatch watches are REALLY well made, and it just shows how a brand name on a watch can make its price 10x higher. I understand that if you look under a microscope, you'll find the difference, but just how many of you really inspect a watch at that level when you see someone with a watch?

[@Carlvlogs]

Thanks for the video

[@jattsingh7433]

But on a wrist we can't differentiate between these two

[@joe23526]

They look very similar, however the rep is much lighter and has flimsier metal, more rattly bracelet, and dial texture is slightly duller than the genuine

These tissot prx fakes are getting out of hands. In india there are people selling these for 35% of the price of the original. They are that good! They even give you an eta movement. Its just thay it wont have an 80 hr power reserve

tbh, fake Tissots can cost $50, thats still you saving 700 bucks

@misconduct6845 true but it's already a fairly cheap watch. Are u not worth a few hundred dollars to spend on urself? Plus the quartz version is only 250 350 depending if you buy used or on sale.
