This is a great a deal. This same watch has been sold by Tissot for, at least, 10 years. I bought it 10 years ago when this watch ran on ETA 2834-2 movement rather than the newer Powermatic 80 movement. It was more than double the price at the time. I had my watch serviced recently, and servicing cost more than what @Shiny Things paid for the watch new. I like this watch a lot. After 10 years, it still looks great.

I just got this for Christmas after pointing it out to my wife back in August when it went down to USD 260/280 on Jomashop. I work for a Swiss owned company and visit there two to three times a year. I am regularly in shops making components and sub-assemblies for a host of top end brands and while this is not a Jaeger, Patek, or Zenith it is an excellent entry to an automatic movement which is Swiss made and suitable for wearing every day. This watch is simply an outstanding deal for what you are getting and I could not be more pleased. As an added benefit the band with its orange stitching, it doesn't look red to me, perfectly matches the black with orange stitching upholstery on my 2006 Dodge Charger Daytona in Go ManGo (orange).

[@JackAndAmandaGoode]

I just discovered your channel. Very thoughtful and helpful review! I especially appreciated the way you modeled the watch on 2 different wrist sizes!

[@neilbotha3527]

Great review as always. Keep them coming and hope your Chanel grows from strength to strength

[@ShinyThings]

Thank you for your support! Much appreciated!

[@damnAmsterdammer]

love it. bought it. outstanding watch.

[@Honu-up3ou]

Great review

[@ianrutter9243]

I bought my first Tissot 2 years ago and now I have 16 watches, 5 of which I will sell but not Tissot watches,just micro brands. I love my seastar with its green fumee dial and automatic movement,80 hrs power reserve but the supplied bracelet was rubbish so swapped to an orange FKM, IT LOOKS AWESOME NOW

[@graemeyetts3465]

I have the exact same case and movement but on a bracelet. I remembered the value proposition from my teens. I achieved 88.2 hours on a single charge! The accuracy is decent. Lume is poor and no AR coating I believe. I like the day date function and arrangement. Decent choice for a first "Proper watch"

[@jonathanrobinson9208]

Great job ! I have mine on a black epsom leather strap with white stitching. It makes the watch wear much thinner and gives it a much more dressy appearance. Great review ! 👍❤

[@ShinyThings]

Thank you! It is a lovely watch!

[@MrPINKFL0YD]

I'm going to get one. Tissot make some great watches - I've got a prx

[@georgeradulescu7175]

I love reviews of watches I already own. I have the white dial on a bracelet. I think the watch is brilliant and quite versatile. It's accurate and can be worn on different occasions. The only drawback is that the bracelet does not taper and the links are also quite thick, which makes the bracelet look like a motorcycle chain wrapped around your wrist.

[@uramalakia]

You had me at motorcycle chain.

[@graemeyetts3465]

I agree with your opinion regarding the bracelet.

[@Dronetothetop]

Bracelets can be changed anytime. Important thing is that you have it in the first place. So hard to get a good matching Tissot bracelet.

[@allovered10]

nice, love Tissot

[@acasognp]

I like this watch… i have some other Tissots but Im thinking buying a Couturier model this one or the one with small seconds and small your and minute hands with black dial. Nice video thanks

[@ahsanuddin2842]

Ordered the rose gold version. 267 delivered to UK.

[@JinKee]

I like that all the cost saving features are against your wrist and out of the way.

[@ShinyThings]

As an everyday wear I think it's perfectly adequate. The case back was assembled at Tissot factory, so should be well sealed. And there is no much need to open it, i.e. no battery to replace. As for the crown - it should be ok for some water exposure, even for an (eccidental 😳🙂) swim. I wouldn’t treat it as a swim watch though, I would get a Seiko diver or SM 🙂 to swim with. Thanks for watching 🙂👍

[@user-ys7qr2yd8j]

can you tell me what precision you measured in real use with this watch?

[@rafaelalbarracin9278]

Estimado un gran hallazgo muy buena alternativa al Seiko sarb 033, saludos 👍

[@ShinyThings]

Possibly 🙂 however sarb033 is quite special 🙂 and more expensive 🙂

[@friskjidjidoglu7415]

I’m so thankful this watch will be too big for me haha

[@aussie8114]

I think you may find if you measure the diameter on the diagonal it might be 39. A video I watched a few days ago indicated the diameter of a watch is measured on the diagonal. Meaning 2-00 to 8-00.

[@ShinyThings]

Thanks for the suggestion. I measured 2 to 8 and still got greater than 39mm, 41.1mm actually 😏 Basically, the case is wider than the bezel at any point, so no matter where I measure it will measure wider than the bezel diameter of 39mm.

[@yacovmitchenko1490]

Fine-looking watch. How accurate is it?

[@ondrejzacek9243]

This watch is much better then the PRX no doubt.

[@ShinyThings]

@ondrejzacek9243 Apparently similar (or the same) movement, but, of course, completely different form factor, so I guess it comes down to individual taste. Thank you for watching! 🙂👍

[@mikestory6023]

What is the model nane and number..you failed to.mention it

[@zillsburyy1]

does TISSOT still have the lowest priced COSC watch? tissot 1938?

[@giancarloliucci4104]

Sembra un buon affare... Orologio bello ed elegante senza esagerare

[@krajaan]

Nice watch , I have one on the bracelet :)

[@ShinyThings]

Bracelet is pretty cool on this Tissot line, quite a unique design, no much tapper though, 22mm by the clasp could be a much for some 🙂

[@klintkazazi5766]

I have a question! Is the movement same with the PRX ?

[@slobodapeter]

Yes, its Powermatic 80, same is used on PRX, PR100, Gentleman and also Seastar. However, some of the movements used to have COSC chronometer certification, which was to my knowledge not yet the case of PRX, but PR100. Its a very precise movement even without the certificate. The drawback of this movement is some plastic part, however, I did not found any complaints on it on the internet so far.

[@zillsburyy1]

you might like the casio day date.

[@chekiechekie]

I do believe the case back is actually only a friction fit case back, not snap on. It's rather common with many Tissot watches. Also, one thing that really irritates me is that the rotor is actually made of plastic and is lighter weight than the equivalent metal one. The downside to this is that in the event the rotor rotation becomes a bit stiff, the rotor isn't heavy enough to drag itself round. Although i do like the PM80 for its power reserve, i do also wish that Tissot kept an option for the traditional 2824 with 4hz tick.

[@pelham8910]

I own this watch but paid more for it. I like the punk/star trek aesthetic and the cheap price was a bonus, not the reason I bought it.

[@chingsdaddy5066]

Have this model ever available on the Tissot official website? Just afraid that is not a legitimate Tissot watch..

[@eggsII]

Be aware that this version of the Powermatic may have plastic parts in the movement. For less than $250 maybe that’s ok?

[@uramalakia]

In what sizes is it available?

[@uramalakia]

Just ordered it for 239$.

[@djavaheri1]

I want this watch...BUT there seems to be a LOT of complaints. It seems the band comes in 2 different lengths, and some people randomly get the very short band, and some get the very long band. Also, doesn't 23 jewels mean it has plastic parts in it with a Swatch movement that has sections fused together as to deem it 'unfixable' if something ever goes wrong? If that is the case, then a Seiko is a better purchase by far....right? Lastly, it seems like it is a strap monster (which I like), but a tiny case....What gives? I have a 7 1/2 wrist and can (and prefer) large cases...but this sounds like it will sadly be tiny on my wrist. Can someone answer these questions please?

[@fungus70]

It's $319 already !

[@9426sunny]

Powermatic80((23 jewels) movement is a Plastic movement. Escapement wheel and pallet fork are 100% made from polymer material without 2 missing jewels. Hamilton and Mido are with Powermati80(25 jewels) which is normal version of movement. Every watches with a movement of powermatic80(23 jewels only) should be lower price. Many people don't know this point.

[@ShinyThings]

Thanks for sharing!

[@joerichardson6107]

Would that helps with antimagnetic properties?

[@9426sunny]

@@joerichardson6107 Yes, it does of course, but still I don't want to buy that disposal plastic movement watch whatsoever. Do you?

[@kuongsam2314]

It can be serviced and accurate, not a disposable movement.

[@sofloflow]

You sir just saved me $250

[@richardshaw1968]

Good value but the design puts me off, over-strapped and not keen on the day & date frames. It’s the same for me on the chronograph Couturier version.

[@ShinyThings]

Tudor BB no date style would be better? 🙂

[@richardshaw1968]

@@ShinyThings not necessarily, just a planer design like the date only version.

[@uramalakia]

Tissot Chemin des Tourelles then maybe?

[@quehorassao00]

it c'ant be serviced that is a big No for me

[@philspencelayh5464]

You can't easily regulate it but servicing is no problem

[@graemeyetts3465]

It can be regulated but not so straightforward,I believe.

[@ziyadalhanooti3889]

I owned one for almost 2 years. Not impressed. It looks nice but my $80 invicta keeps more accurate time.
