Man I'm on the late train with this watch but I DONT CARE!!. I just bought the black dial version for sub 300 bucks and man I'm so happy. Yes it's old and going on a decade since release but as far as I'm concerned great watches are like wine. This watch is stunning and gorgeous as much today as it was 8 yrs ago. Thanks for the review.

[@Danny-sb4jd]

new watch enthusiast here, where did you purchase the watch (reliably) and for such a steal!

[@Steve-vm1fi]

@@Danny-sb4jd jomashop. Just got mine for $275 shipped (get the $20 off coupon)

[@BigFatSeal10]

One decade later still looks like new, I got it too with the applied steel numbers, favorite dress watch. My second tissot since the prx auto, together they can do everything a man needs, tissot never misses.

I bought a stainless steel black dial black leather strap Visodate on a cruise ship last Oct. for $550US duty free. I like it, but it runs about 20 seconds fast daily. Then I ran into the Powermatic 80 in St. Lucia Caribbean, selling for $505US. It is not exactly like this one, a more plain dial with Roman Numbers and stainless steel. The sales lady told me Brietling's Powermatic 80 is selling for over $7,000. I am testing my Tissot and for more than 64 hours after it was fully wound, it runs strong sitting on my desk, and with death accuracy. I love it. I only thing I wish more is that it has a leather strap like the Visodate's. For the money, they are worth every penny.

[@pangoo82]

Hi Hon How is the accuracy of your Tissot? +- how many seconds per day?

[@siuhhonkeung]

It was fast by 20 seconds per day. I sent it back for adjustment. It was told it was sent back to Omega and now it is dead accurate, almost like a quartz watch. They even gave me a test report (which I don't understand). I then bought a Powermatic 80 Tissot in January for $500 USD in St. Lucia. This one is every accurate, no need for adjustment. After full winding, it lasts for 86 hours.

[@SAREL1963]

Hon Siu Service Excellence.That`s why they give you the report .

[@SolidusVictorium]

I feel exactly the same way; I wish the powermatic came with leather straps as well.

[@dimatha7]

Hon Siu How accurate is the one with Powermatic80 Caliber? Please use seconds per day or per week. The answer very accurate is revelant.

[@han7902]

At 2022, I just got a tissot luxury model with cosc grade power 80 movement with diamond hour marks for $420. This is truly a bargain basement price for Swiss cosc time pieces. I guess Tissot doesn't even bother to recycle unsold watches, and just let the general public enjoys the gravy market high quality watches for less. Loving it!

[@everythingautomotiveeta5839]

Literally me too same thing

[@han7902]

@@everythingautomotiveeta5839 later I found the entire luxury line watches are using plastic escapement with it's 23 jewels C07.111 movement, and Tissot also remove the spring wheel adjustment from the movement. With such low price, these Tissot watches are almost not worth servicing when time comes, and become disposable watches in a few years...

[@drzaius844]

I bought this watch on the leather strap. It really character with different straps. Great, subtle, classy watch. The dial takes on the color of the room you are in, goes from cold steel to warm champagne. The way the chapter ring dives down near the bezel, and exposes the applied indices, is the highlight of the dial, and a detail that my eye wanders to a lot. I picked mine up for $299 at Jomashop, great deal.

[@cecilioalbertcorpuz2874]

Any issues you came across?

[@danzilmack9325]

Wow thats cheap. I see it for $499 and thats almost half price

[@everythingautomotiveeta5839]

[@autochthonous3141]

Do you have any problem with that after a year ? Becauase i bought at Jomashop a Automatic Seiko once and it was fake. I didn't realize it until i went at watch repair shop.

[@autochthonous3141]

I forget to mention that the horologist at the shop confirm me that it was a Chinese clone movement , not authentic. Be careful from Jomashop and all Grey Market !

[@fungus70]

I have a Tissot Le Locle Powermatic 80 and it's a beautiful and fantastic watch. 80 hours power reserve is just superb and very reasonably priced.

[@befreetv354]

Hi there.Can you PLS tell me how many sec looses a day? and a week? Thank you

[@matthewhoover6154]

Old video but I just got this watch in with the Chronometer certification. It is new but since it is an old model I assume Tissot sold it to a wholesaler so it ended up being about half of original retail. When I saw the depth on the dial with the textured finish on the side I just fell for the watch. I was looking at a tissot quartz watch for my first Swiss watch but went for an upgrade I guess.

[@christopherjefferson3561]

I just got the powermatic 80 in chronometre grade for $600! I know lucky! And it is dead nuts accurate! Omg I do love this! I do wish it were 43mm.

[@youtubister]

Solid, comprehensive review. Just wish you had opened the clasp.

[@mramlija]

This watch caught my attention on display at a mall near my home. Give one or two days later I bought it. That was 2 years ago and still ticking.

[@mramlija]

@Emerald Lx Think it was about $500 back in 2016 I think. The watch is doing fine till now.

[@mramlija]

@Emerald Lx Still wearing it every alternate day to my Seiko 5. Sometimes I feel these auto watches confine us into using it everyday.

[@yashvashistha7804]

Thanks for this. I purchased the gold version of this today.

[@ismiv23]

Thanks for the review, this is my first automatic watch got it for my birthday 2 months ago, very comfortable and nice to look at.

[@iSk00L]

I'm getting a similar Tissot Powermatic 80 watch tomorrow. If it is good enough I will post a review soon.

[@shamuelilyayev1889]

+iSk00L where are you buying it from and how much?

[@iSk00L]

ED TheJokerX I received it from Watchshop (UK, a subsidiary of Goldsmith). I ended up getting the PRC 200 powermatic for £495.00. www.watchshop.com/mens-tissot-prc200-automatic-watch-t0554301105700-p99962537.html Nice watch, and decent price IMO.

[@S7M7N]

Hi, What size is the wideness of your wrist (upper side of your wrist)? My wrist is 6.69 inch and upper side of my wrist is about 60mm You think it’s gonna be look bog on my wrist?

[@traviss0]

Love W&W but you are allowed to be critical. Every watch you review seems to be flawless. I would bet money if they increased the BPH reducing the power reserve instead of saying how you appreciate the "practicality" you would say you love the choice they made to make the sweeping hand more smooth (even at the cost of power).

[@seabasster]

Would you pick this over a quartz prx?

[@yaaxarr8977]

Great watch, I will look to buy one soon.

[@sergionegron2303]

The movement of the couturier I'm refering to is the co1.211

[@sergionegron2303]

Quick opinion. Between the luxury powermatic 80 and the couturier automatic cronograph. Wich would you choose and why.

[@sbsb4995]

Is there a black dial to this watch?

[@edeag3]

The price point really doesn't allow for such a feature, and it's not entirely necessary since while the 80 hours is relatively long, it's not near the magnitude of 5+ days which makes the reserve very useful. It would be nice though yes.

[@sbsb4995]

This watch in 36mm would be perfect

[@kiljoy5223]

I agree, a 38 mil would be a nice option.

[@DrHowbeit]

I was excited about this design when I saw the photos. Live I find the dial a bit too big and the bracelet unnecessary prominent. Reduces the elegance and made the watch a bit crude in my opinion. So there you have it people.

[@carycoller3140]

I saw this in a pawn shop today for $495. It's the one with diamonds in the place of numbers. I don't know if it's worth it. Does anybody know?

[@TaylorElizabeth211]

please tell me what exactly model( the numbers) of this watch !

[@BigFatSeal10]

Timeless watch 10 years ago yet looks like it could be made today. Got one on alligator with black dial & applied steel numbers rather than indicies from joma, so happy with the watch no idea why it was so discounted but im happy.

[@frozerekmeyata4091]

I enjoyed the review, it was thorough but you left out one important thing...you should have tested it for 30 days and let us know what the timekeeping capability by the seconds gained or lost over those 30 days.

Is the case back a 'snap back' ?? Thx

[@pavelsoldatov7838]

Great review. Thanks!

[@christianrivera6999]

If I buy, am I going to be able to switch the strap to leather ? I really hope you can answer my question (:

[@cosmea.pereira4246]

Buy it on a bracelet and you can easily change it to a leather strap (I did the same for my watch). The lug width of the strap is 22mm, so plenty of straps are available : )

[@SunsetSheen]

Great looking timepiece but I wish they went with 20mm lugs

[@edinayee]

any possibility for reviewing Le Locle Chronometre ?

[@martinrea8548]

It's very similar to their Ballade model.

[@SangMarocain]

Is it possible to manual wind? I.e. Every night before bed. If yes does it have overwind protection? Thx:)

Wait what so I will pay thousand $$ and I will have to reset it every 2 - 3 days ? I mean shloudn't ir be like I set it and even after year it will work second to second ? Someone please answer I want buy watch under 1000$ but I am noob ... :(

[@nycneprep2136]

You sure are a noob, u misunderstood 80 hour power reserve.Automatic watches run lifetime as long as you wear them.This has 80 hour reserve ,meaning you can leave it unworn for 80 hrs.

[@larap843]

This is a mechanical watch, not a quartz watch with a battery. Mechanical watches work because they have a rotor that gives them power when you move the watch, or because you manually wind the crown to recharge them every 40-80 hours. This means that if you wear this watch at least every two three days you don't need to reset it, because the movement of your wrist keeps it going. if you leave it in a drawer, after 80 hours it stops.

[@ozgundemirr]

why no reserve dial? How could you know how many hours you have? sigh..

[@MikeBisney]

Like this just as much as Ariel from ablogtowatch..

[@maitrehg]

I really don't like the movement of the second hand. This is close to the quartz.
