Just bought myself the baby blue dial Tsuyosa, and it looks stunning. I never saw anything appealing about the PRX.

[@goodwill_hunting]

I love the citizen, it's so clean and honestly it really is a competitor to the prx. I would love to have them both but since the citizen came out I'd rather have that. That yellow os so dope

[@arihill509]

I had to get both. Citizen is more stunning. But Tissot is better quality. Great review

[@dcon1891]

I love the waffle dial on the tissot 🤤 but the citizen hurts my wallet less and still looks great 😅

[@itxofficial8281]

This pretty much sums it up for me. I also got both, and while the automatic movement in the Tsuyosa is utter crap, I still kept it since I absolutely love the design. For more formal occasions though, I still prefer to wear the PRX.

[@TopTierTicker]

Do you think it's that bad? I don't mind it too much, it's not bad for $300. I've certainly seen worse

[@itxofficial8281]

@@TopTierTicker Could be my specific model though. Accuracy is roughly +40s/day, and also it stops randomly sometimes. I might have to get it serviced! Other than that, I still think the Tsuyosa is a great watch.

[@TopTierTicker]

@@itxofficial8281 it should still be under warranty no? Send it off for free!

[@jamegumm]

Having worn both, I bought the Citizen because it fits better on my smaller wrist (16 cm )

[@TopTierTicker]

Yep! Much more comfortable than the 40mm PRX. Although I do really need to try the 35mm

[@asvpab]

Why not get the 35mm PRX?

[@iXus78]

​@asvpab 35mm too too small😅

[@WatchJapan]

I have a 7.25" wrist and the Tsuyosa is perfect. A 40mm that wears like a 38.5mm. The PRX is a 40mm that wears like a 41.5/42mm. Why should anyone choose to wear a small watch just to accommodate flaws in the overall design? And at double the price for the Powermatic 80 version? No thanks.

[@_urahara_]

I'd go with the Tissot PRX automatic (small) if it is almost the same price as the Tsuyosa. Great review as always 👍

[@TopTierTicker]

Good choice! Thanks for watching my friend.

[@anttiautere3663]

I enjoy my new yellow Tsuyosa. Cause it's a sunflower watch.

[@JayzBeerz]

I have the yellow and baby blue and love them. Great watches for the price.

[@rikdriscoll2160]

I think Citizen have done a good job here, it looks good and the specs aren't bad at all. I dont really go for integrated warches because I love swapping out straps. If I had to choose one of these i would probably go for the PRX. Great video, many thanks my friend 👍

[@WahidEzaty-tc7tq]

Tsoyusa is a great watch and the value prop over the Tissot is huge

[@garnetnewton-wade4091]

The Powermatic 80 has plastic construction in places so Citizen will beat it on that alone.

[@bking82]

I think it's silicone but also it's the same, for this I don't like powermatic 80

[@cqc2238]

@@bking82It’s plastic. The spring is SI, the escapement is nylon and non serviceable.

[@MuSprutt]

Yeah thats a deal breaker

[@gwcrispi]

Specs be damned. I love both. I have the Mint PRX and I'm about to buy the yellow Tsuyosa. It doesn't have to be either or.

[@TopTierTicker]

True!

[@Goxilla]

I own both and I usually pick the PRX over the Tsuyosa. It wears better with long sleves since the bracelett is thinner. I also don´t like the clasp on the Tsuyosa. It feels cheap and has too much play. I also prefer a watch without the magnifying glass on the date. That doesn´t mean I don´t like the Tsuyosa, it´s a great watch for that money and I usually wear it when it´s warm outside with a bright shirt. I would consider to change the bracelett and the clasp

[@daveLin104]

[@williamsipe1151]

The new 35 mm PRX is interesting, but at the price I'm inclined to just buy the Christopher Ward. I have the Citizen and my only complaints are the thickness and weight.

[@arsenjaho8069]

Shocked by the beauty of this watch! Definitely flagship killer!

[@jro18751501]

I think they're both beautiful watches. It's all subjective. I recently purchased the "Tiffany Blue" Citizen, and I've had the dark green automatic PRX for a couple if years. The bracelet on the PRX is of higher quality. The bracelet on the citizen just feels thin and cheap unfortunately. Aesthetically i like it though. I also love the polished finish of the Citizen. There is a price point difference in these watches, and in hand you can tell. Both beautiful watches on wrist. I do not regret buying the Citizen, you're getting a lot for a small amount of money.

[@michaelperry9261]

I hate cyclops magnifiers and the dial on the PRX is way nicer. I agree the plastic part non adjustable movememnt in the PRX is crap. So for myself I'll be buying neither. I'll keep looking I guess.

[@TopTierTicker]

Fair enough! I think the quartz 35mm PRX is a good piece. But if course, not mechanical.

[@brotherandrew3393]

The quartz Tissot does not provide this beautiful waffel dial the automatic version has. But you can get the 35 mm version. If I had to chose I really would have to see and try both watches before making a decision.

[@frblaze2]

35mm looks like a woman's watch, ridiculously small dial and Cass

[@andromedagodit2492]

I'd go for the Citizen. Colours aside, being able to have an automatic movement + sapphire crystal at 300 bucks is the perfect value and quality combination that any decent watchmaker should look into; other than 39mm size. Besides, the PRX is manufactured in CHINA and assembled in Switzerland; so, so much for "swiss made". Just goes to show, that Great Watches don't have to come, with even Greater price tags. Well done, Citizen.

[@mikewilliams68]

Totally agree. Its just an everyday watch that you dont have to put a battery in it every few years. Sapphire crystal perfect for everyday use at £300. Unbeatable

[@goodwill_hunting]

Great review, glad I came across your channel

[@bekirbayraktar8000]

Merhabalar, bu citizen saatten 3 adet aldım, çok güzel ve memnunum. Ancak gece karanlıkta görüşü çok zayıf. Akrep ve yelkovanlarda yeteri derecede kalınlık mesafesi yok. Akrep ve yelkovandaki fosfor kalınlıklarının genişletilmesi halinde süper olacaktır. Lütfen Citizen genel müdürüne iletin. İyi günler. Saygılar. Bekir Bayraktar. İstanbul, Türkiye.

[@CCPwillfall01]

I hate the tsyosas bracelet but I love the movement case and dial and I hate the lack of straps on the market

[@datutturugang666]

got this sunday the yellow version, in direct sunlight it looks stunning, althouhpgh mune runs a lil fast, as you said any local watchmaker knows the 8200 series movement by heart, plus i don’t like tissot

[@chinckennugget]

Another great video what is your favorite watch ⌚️

[@wendyandgeoffpattison2610]

I have read some bad press about the reliability of the PRX, (plastic). Citizen for the win, although I would rather have seen the 9015 engine in there. (28800bph)

[@Trip2Shiesty]

Y’all put so much emphasis on water resistance but you know damn well you not bringing this watch anywhere near a body of water

[@lukaszkasprzak4756]

Tsuyosa ❤❤❤

[@Trip2Shiesty]

I’m taking tissot PRX

[@asvpab]

Could you do a similar review comparing these two to the Christopher Ward 12?

[@TopTierTicker]

Potentially, although I think the steel CW12 isn't anything special. It's a great looking watch don't get me wrong, but it's just another mid range sports watch imo.

[@koraypektas6952]

I found Citizen more elegant and beautiful, it fits my wrist perfectly, PRX has rougher lines and Citizen has a better design.

[@PatQuakernaat]

Got both .... I feel the bracelet is soo much better on the citizen, combined with a superior movement and dial. To my view, the Citizen pisses all over the Tissot.

[@aponcapone]

Is it only me who does not like the waffle dial on the Tissot??? I like rhe dial from the quarts one more.

[@murmor6890]

If you are ready to spend the money for an automatic PRX but you are not completely obsessed with automatic, getting a quarz PRX and a Tsuyosa is probably not a bad move either.

[@TopTierTicker]

Good point!

[@edgarmartins1811]

I got both: yellow Tsuyosa and black PRX automatic

[@TopTierTicker]

Niiice! Enjoy my friend

[@goodwill_hunting]

Everything about the citizen is a plus, even with the miyota movement because the price is superior. Tissot is a great company but they are way overpricing thier watches right now and it's left a huge space for citizen to step in and dominate.

[@beastmodeliving6268]

I have the yellow citizen. I love it

[@chair5728]

Yes, it really is.

[@neelayshirali]

Will this work for small wrists of 6 inches?

[@TopTierTicker]

It should do, yes.

[@certainly2509]

You forgot to mention the lume on both watches. Which one has better lume?

[@TopTierTicker]

So I did!! Both are average to be honest! But the Citizen has slightly better. (the lume on the PRX is actually pretty bad)

[@itxofficial8281]

Definitely the PRX, but they're both incredibly subpar, let me tell you that!!

[@LogicKidroy]

I own Both and if I’m honest, the Tissot PRX Auto is a rip off. I have the Quartz and its ok but it doesn’t compete with the Citizen Tsuyosa.

[@samueldebbarma2891]

I love the Citizen tsuyosa but...but the Tissot prx has a 100 meters of water resistance and I think that's the only reason which makes everyone think twice before picking up the tsuyosa with just 50 meters of WR against the prx.

[@matyasd007]

Ummm If this is gonna be your only watch.. take it off before diving perhaps? Or take another watch with you? I do not see the problem here with the water resistance

[@gwcrispi]

If I plan on getting in any water, I'm going to wear my Casio Duro anyway. For occasionally getting it wet, 50 meters vs 100 meters is meaningless. No idea why people care so much about this...?

[@samueldebbarma2891]

Have I said anything about diving...its just that more water resistance gives that extra edge for certain conditions other than diving

[@goodwill_hunting]

I'd have to pop the cyclops off of the crystal though

[@ibez07]

i bought the PRX

[@jroark101]

You can get the PRX in 35mm now

[@rwyo83]

[@davidthom7127]

Why didn't you compare the Citizen with the 35mm PRX ? And you do at the last second. Too late

[@TopTierTicker]

Because both full size versions are 40mm. So that's more of a fair comparison

Depends on what colors you like, really. The yellow one is the most striking, but since I absolutely hate yellow as a color, I still went with the green one. The sunburst is a little more subtle than the one on the PRX quartz, but it's still beautiful nonetheless.
