Expect micros/indies to listen to the customers, but rarely from swiss watch giants. Thanks Tissot, this is perfection!

Kudos to teddy for interviewing Tissot CEO Sylvain Dolla in person! Sylvain has genuine respect and admiration for Teddy, and it is an honor for a CEO to launch his new products on teddy's channel first! I bought the PRX 80 powermatic and absolutely love it. In case Sylvain reads the comments, the only minor feature I would like to see Tissot add is an adjustable bracelet when my wrist swells in the summer.

[@TheGrenadier97]

Tissot is doing lots of rights with the PRX family. Respecting its own heritage, adopting sizes that everyone can wear (people should stop complaining about a 37mm case, because 2mm won't kill), maintaing highly versatile specifications and aesthetics and expanding into a wide range of colours. Others brands should definitely follow. The automatic 35mm is a great addition.

[@turnbasedtoddy7664]

The downfall of this watch is it has a plastic escapement and pallet fork. That is ridiculous for a $800 watch

[@TheGrenadier97]

Not sure if it's just "plastic". How's the reliability on the Powermatic 80?

[@TehApolloEleven]

They need one 37-38. 40 is too big for a lot of people and 35 is too small.

[@miroslavseda9136]

I really love Tissot. An excellent quality, great design, tradition, and heritage. You probably won't get the better watches in this price category, cheap, reliable, beautiful, and classy.

[@henkdeklapsteen6787]

Exactly, got my first swiss automatic watch from tissot, beautifull watch can not stop looking at it.

[@ugabrew]

@@henkdeklapsteen6787Same. I bought a used Tissot Le Locle for $300 a decade ago and it is the piece that got me into watches. I have “nicer” pieces now, but still wear the Tissot as much as any of them. We’ve traveled all over and that was the watch I was wearing when my daughter was born. I’ve spent more on servicing it than I paid for the watch, but I’ll continue to do so because I love it and it’s a damn fine watch.

[@T.Q.]

All those stringent tests and quality controls and some people still question Tissot. This company deserves a lot more credit than it gets. I had a Tissot many years ago. Wore it everyday, did a lot of rough work here and there, sports, swam with it, bumped it more times than I could remember and the thing worked perfectly for many years after I got it. Got the bracelet polished and gifted it to someone, and they still have it today and it works. About two decades after I got it.

[@davidforman8593]

Teddy has got to be one of the most positive forces in the watch world today. A true gift. And you can just tell that everyone around him knows it. Bravo.

[@2yugen2]

Tissot is quickly becoming one of my favorite watch brands. I love the PRX and really appreciate the company’s customer focus. Congratulations on the 35mm PRX, I am sure people will love it.

[@ElPlantPapi]

Seeing a fraction of all the test was amazing, you always hear “they’re tested in multiple positions” but never get to see what actually goes on in this tests. Thank you Teddy for always producing great content going above and beyond to bring us this type of videos! Awesome!

[@4120306]

I love how fun those Sideral S looks! Will definitely be checking them out at the store soon. But above all, I must say I love how humble and passionate Tissot's CEO is. Very down to earth and amicable. It's good to see these type of people behind products you love. Great vid. Thanks!

[@trueborn7323]

As someone with a larger wrist, I don’t need a 35mm but I love tissot for listening and following through with the request of so many that want a 35mm bravo 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Tissot have quickly become one of my favorite brands. It's very cool to get a look at the behind-the-scenes stuff, as well as a glimpse of what's in the wings. Thanks for another great video.

[@timdieffenbach9399]

Just bought a Tissot PRX 35mm Powermatic 80 with green dial. My first mechanical watch since the Bulova automatic my mother gave me in my adolescence over 50 years ago and long since gone. Great finding Teddy's video on the PRX 35mm and learning more about Tissot !

[@dreamcatcherua]

Wow, the amount of testing steps is just mind blowing

[@backonthebay1314]

Teddy, your channel is the best by far. I really enjoy these interviews and tours of the watch companies showing what goes on behind the scene of watch making!

[@peakrider4886]

Thanks Teddy that was a great way to spend 21 minutes. I like both of the Tissot releases presented, and a fascinating insight into the test laboratory. I wonder if the add in other real life factors to the test like dirt and sand when testing things like the clasp opening and closing. Hallelujah the 35mm PRX auto!!, looking forward to seeing them in the retail stores.

[@chriscraft999]

I like your interviews, they are very professional and informative. Meeting with the companies in person is the best way to see what goes on at the source of watchmaking. So much better than the hype from other channels.

Love Tissot, my first mechanical watch is the gentleman bought back in 2020, it's still my everyday go-to watch, aside from the slightly faster time keeping, it's a robust, well made watch that withstood the punishment from on site jobs. The 35 mm is definitely a hit, can't wait to get one!

highly anticipated, finally let’s get it!

[@curtbrown7718]

[@ref6122]

Very good to see a 35 mm automatic.Hoping for possibly a 39 mm PRX chronograph in the future.

[@jasonhindle4054]

Great video and insights. I love my 40mm PRX. Looks big on me, even on the leather strap, but it’s the perfect weekday beater. I wear it Monday-Friday, wear one of my Christopher Wards (or Seagull chronograph) at the weekend, and know my PRX will still be running, Monday. It’s accurate enough that I only think to set it once or twice a month. After a break for Christmas, it has been running continuously since early Jan.

[@Dannydrinkbottom]

Saving up for a PRX. It will be my first entry into proper watchmaking

[@PP-bm7zp]

I’m only a newbie into watches this year, but the most exciting brand for me is TISSOT. Picked up my first Swiss, mechanical in the form of the PRX powermatic 80, what a watch for the price.

[@Tizianv]

The sideral is soo nice!! Love it

[@zachkockler4995]

Small request. Maybe a smaller tissot gentleman?

Well done Tissot ;) merci de nous avoir écouté.

This behind the scenes look at the punishment and strenuous testing a Tissot is put through before it reaches the end user's wrist inspires a great deal of trust and confidence in this historic brand.

[@serz1885]

i got quartz tissot 23 years. it was present from mother. this watch still almost looks like new and working with no issues. 36 for round watch is the best size

[@BanchieLIT]

Tissot is really knocking it out of the park. Would love to see ceramic options of the PRX. Would buy a black and a white one in a hearbeat.

[@aagm.]

Absolutely wonderful

[@alturki928]

[@tranquilcoast]

Awesome! I love my quartz 35mm PRX and absolutely plan to pick up an automatic in 35mm. Have to decide between the blue and green.

[@ishannage248]

Perfection! ive been waiting for this. It'll be my second watch and will look nice next to my Tissot Le Locle Powermatic80

[@waynejohnson3214]

Great job with the 35mm Powermatic, Tissot! I will be getting one. Too many watchmakers are releasing new versions of their high-demand classics, but always making them bigger. They're classics for a reason!

[@user-dm1qu6it3r]

Tissot is doing so well!! They listen to the people and deliver!

[@viperocco]

PRX is a modern classic. Very nice!

[@chasehuggins6157]

Keep at it Tissot. I would love to see the PRX released with the Logo it was originally designed with on that 70's Seastar.

[@superfast30]

Big fan of anything Sylvain touches and he has definitely worked his magic with Tissot!

[@wuchinshan133]

One of the most educational watch related videos I've seen! Great work.

[@zerobladehonmono]

About dang time we got the PRX in the 35mm. The 40mm version always seemed too large proportionally but this is just perfect. And excellent timing too, as the trend now is a downsizing of watches back to the midsize 36-39mm range. The Sideral isn't for me, but I appreciate that they stay true to its roots, and doing it in a carbon fiber case is genuine too. Just as fibreglass was a space-age material of its time, so is carbon fibre in today's era.

[@unaibb]

So happy to see you there at Tissot home, very good job Teddy! Next step to PRX, the 37mm version?

[@Czechbound]

New subscriber. That was great ! Good to see Mr. Tissot guy being so enthusiastic about the new models, and taking an interest in what people want. I think a $1000/ EU1000 price point for a quality watch is reasonable. A this video has really, really great production quality.

[@tinymotogarage]

Please make more, reasonably priced silicone straps Tissot - the PRX looks amazing with that - quick release would be amazing as you totally change the watch like that.

[@cunawarit]

Tissot if you are listening, I love my 35mm quartz PRX. But you know what I would love more? A high accuracy quartz 35mm PRX! And if you can push it down to 7mm thickness that would be even cooler! I love the more vintage dimensions of the 35mm PRX and I want the genuine 70s experience, a great quality quartz movement in it.

[@airongmc6810]

The testing of watch components was very interesting!

[@kanelfc98]

OKAY this is a game changer just TODAY I resided myself to a treat 35mm quarts but this is what I NEEDED

[@kylerodgers3608]

[@Angelbonilla1982]

The red one, Kevin!! would love it!!

[@ThisGuy4]

As someone new to watches, Tissot is one I have adopted.

[@cozxmos]

Great news! I hope you will add a new size in the middle. I used to own the 40mm on my 18.25 cm wrist and it wears too large so I sold it. I tried the 35mm many times and it is really too small. The PRX is incredible and I truly would love to add one in my collection again at 37/38mm!

[@MrFloRolf]

YES LET'S GO! I for sure will get a PRX now!
