For me the Twelve is the clearly winner! It is incredible how CW can not only compete but beat many big brands in their field, I think it is a clear example of how the value is in the product they offer and the satisfaction of a very high quality product is accessible

Very much agree. You seem to be the first guy to actually rate the PRX over the 12. I held both (ironically, in a Chisolm Hunter store), and I just didn’t see 2x the quality in the 12.

The 12 looks smaller on your wrist. Wristcheck: tag Heuer Aquaracer calibre 5 white dial with orange accents. Also, sorry but the sellita blows the powermatic 80 out of the water for reliability and serviceability.

As someone who sells tissot watches obviously hes gonna choose the prx. I've held both watches in hand and trust me there's literally no competition. The Tissot is better only in the accuracy and power reserve department. Calling it a better watch for the money just for those two reasons is like saying it's better than the royal Oak because it has a longer power reserve. Anyone can tell the difference in quality between these watches at a glance. The twelve is designed by the same designer that made the czapek antartique and it just has a lot more character compared to the PRX

Verry nice video, but i disagree with you on the movement. I own a PRX and love it, especially the 80 hours of power reserve. But since there is no simple - old fashion - way to regulate and the fact that it uses a plastic escapement (!!) do bother me as a watch enthusiast. For that reason only, i think, that the SW200-1 is just the better movement. Correct me, if i misunderstand something. ✌️

Finally a video compared both together at the same time

First reviewer that says the twelve wears bigger. I tried the prx and decided not to buy (18cm/7 in wrist) and heard for the most part that the 12 wears smaller than prx due to the different endlinks

No idea what you are on about here Harrison. I am not trying to hate on the PRX, but it is SO overhyped, and this video proves it- no way a watch you can get for 30% off at your JC Penny back to school sale should be considered in the same league as the 12. CW plays in a much higher tier than even its price suggests.

christopher ward looks better to me in all sense, the dial the bracelet, the look everything and frankly it justifies the price difference as its not much...

The PRX definitely wears bigger and bulkier with its male end links. The CW end links drape down more and fit much better.

I have golden PRX in 35mm quartz and would like to get 12 in 36mm glacier and also Tudor 1926 in 36mm silver. Not sure if I buy any of them because I couldnt justify any watch purchase after I got myself one with spring drive for daily driver.

Picking up the blue prx 40mm & the white dial 12 later down the line. Both are exceptional at their price range.

I own the prx 80 since launch and the only thing I dont really like are the cheap look of the hands. Ok its hyped but not overrated. On the style part I like prx more and you have the ability to try them out in a boutique.

Brillint review. You've made my mind up on what to get. Thank you.

Great video, as always. I know you guys sell Tissot, and the PRX is AWESOME. But…if I’m being honest, the CW Twelve is significantly superior. Yes, the PRX has a longer power reserve, but a lower beat rate, and the Twelve is SO much sharper and high quality looking. The Tissot is amazing at under $1 ,000, but the CW is a $2,500 watch all day long for $1,200. The CW is superior. I look forward to the next video “as always.” Keep up the good work!

Also curious to see what you'd think of the titanium version of the Twelve against the PRX given it's thinner, weighs less and uses a chronometer movement albeit costing more. Also this is just from what I read online but I heard the PRX's serviceability is a pain due to certain parts of its movement?

I have Prx 40mm green dial almost a year and I love it as about accuracy is much much better than CW I would say out of competition anyway I vote for PRX … 👏👍💪😍😍

I got my Tissot Prx ice blue today. I love it.❤

harrisson, what's the tolerance on the prx? you gave on the CW +/-20 secs. what's it on the tissot?

I need to see the CW in hand. I'm still not sure about the dial texture. Today I am wearing the Seiko Sarb017 Alpinist back on the OEM Oyster bracelet.

what's your wrists size? Also, I did try 40mm PRX but it seemed a bit too bulky..I'm at 16.2cm wrist..By the design and lugs it looks like CW might be a tiny bit smaller is that right?

Have my prx on the wrist and love it

Reverie Diver Red Dial with 12-hour bezel is what I'm wearing right now. Also, I'd love to see you do a head to head to head of these two watches versus the Maurice Lacroix Aikon.

Design totally subjective to everybody's tastes, personally would go with the CW and definitely justifiable imo with better bracelet finishing, dial and more intricate dodecagon case design. With the movement, disagree about the PRX movement being superior; 3hz vs 4hz, would prefer a smoother sweep over a slow jittery 3hz frequency every time that feels more luxurious. Don't think power reserve should be the only metric of how good a movement is and isn't. At the end of the day no one has ever complained about a 5711 with 42 hours of reserve right?

PRX looks cheap next to the 12. The Ward is better in every way. It costs more but you get more watch. I think the only advantage PRX has is the 80hr power reserve at the expense of a reduced beat rate. Anyway, how important is power reserve in an automatic watch?

I would probably go for CW all day everyday. Currently wearing my fav watch nomos club campus 729.

CW12 Nordic blue is on the wrist - it wears smaller and nicer than the PRX

CW wins it in my opinion. PRX is like a replica of AP but CW did a lil twist and made it look good.

Love the twelve and want one, but am waiting for a black dial variant Prx is fantastic and i also want one 😅

CW wears smaller because the Prx’s bracelet lugs are wider, it looks better and more compact on the risk… Both are great for the money but I picked CW

don't know why but seems you're comparing them based on your preference (aesthetic) or something else. On wrist the twelve looks smaller, finishing is much better not slightly, movement wise apart from the power reserve , from what I read is much better since the Powermatic in the Tissot is the lowest grade from the Powermatic family.

One looks much nicer than the other and to me, all things considered that’s the winner.

I’d like the CW but the crown guards throw me off. And the hour markers. They look like the copied the hour markers from the omega aqua terra. I have the PRX blue dial and it’s incredible for the price. I don’t think the twelve is double the watch.

The answer is straightforward: the Twelve is superior overall in terms of finishing and movement quality. However, the comparison is more nuanced than that. Let’s delve into the details. With the PRX, you have movement options. For instance, the quartz movement makes the watch only 9.6mm thick, and it wears better than the automatic version. In fact, the quartz PRX is thinner than the CW Twelve. Moreover, the PRX offers a wider variety of styles. You can find chronographs, two-tone watches with gold bezels, gold PDV watches, and even a digital option. It’s like stepping back in time to the 1970s! On the other hand, the CW option is more restrained. If you’re not specifically after quartz, you’ll appreciate that the CW movement is genuinely serviceable rather than replaceable, you can't even regulate the PRX's automatic movement! It is really basic despite the huge power reserve. Additionally, the titanium option is a significant advantage-it makes both the watch and bracelet lighter. (And let’s face it, lightness is a good thing; some of us don’t consider heaviness desirable.) When you hold both watches, you’ll notice that the CW Twelve is better finished. Ultimately, how they wear matters. I personally own a PRX, but I do admire the CW Twelve a lot!

I hear the PRX bracelet is a scratch magnet. Is it true?

The Twelve(1350€) looks nice but the Tissot is only 745€, with the 605 euro diffrent you can almost buy anothe prx

I don't like everything about the CW but I find the dial to be stunning, far nicer than the PRX. My wallet prefers the PRX and I enjoy my quartz, bought at a discount. I bet one can't get a discount on the CW.

It seems the main deciding factor is the $600 price of the PRX. But if budget were no option, as one who has handled and worn both in the metal, the CW is the much better watch. Fit and finish hands down the CW. For what it is, at $600, the PRX is cool, but it is a $600 watch. I've owned the Zenith Defy classic in the past, and the 12 is not that far off from it. While the PRX, again, cool for $600 looks and feels cheap at times. Especially the generic look of the dial and the flimsy bracelet. As far as the movement, it is not a slam dunk for the PRX. Yes, it has 80 hours, but it is also a 3 mhz movement, while the CW is 4 mhz, giving it a smoother sweep and just as good, if not better, accuracy. My 12 keeps very good time, and though I don't time it, I've never seen any issues with it being off by a significant margin. In order to finish the watch in the way CW did, they had to cut cost somewhere, and that was with the SW200. But still, that is a very good workhorse movement used by many one of my fav indies, Oris. If the PRX is more accurate by 1 or 2 seconds... whatever. I would rather have the better finished and better-looking watch that may be a second or 2 slower. I had the PRX and now have the CW, and in the metal, apologies for the PRX lovers, but the CW is the big winner to me. If one would hold, feel, and wear them both to compare.... again, if there is no budget bias, CW would be the clear winner.

Tissot has the pedigrees and history.

Tissot prx❤

Tissot PRX for me 😉

A comparison with the Yema urban traveller would be a better video than the prx

Literally wearing my PRX 40mm with light blue dial while watching this video

On wrist prx tiffany blue

PRX for me. 👌🏽

I think I prefer the Royal Oak 🤣

CW for me.

Both got a horrendous dial, I wish they made a prx with the dial that the quartz has.

The twelve is step up from the PRx in quality in manufacturing in finishing etc the truth is if this watch was being sold in a jewellers it would start at around £1800 the next step after Christopher Ward is in fact longines then Tudor

Prx is overrated and owned by too many people. I wanna stand out.

To me overall the better deal is the PRX

I just can't get by the plastic escapement on the Prx.

Casioak 😎

CW definitely has better build and finishing but in my opinion the PRX has the better overall design. The PRX looks more timeless in its design. The CW dial is just ugly to me and won't age well in my opinion.

PRX is 40mm diameter and has a lug to lug 39.5? Physically impossible

12 > PRX

I got the Prx. I like the more classic conservatives look

CW wins

CW is more expensive but better quality and finishing. I wouldn’t touch the PRX.

The CW may be slightly better finished, but the much poorer movement accuracy seems disappointing to me for the price hike over the PRX.

Really weird that watches measure beats per hour. Would it kill the industry to say '6 beats per second' or '8 beats per second' like any logical sane person would? In a car, miles per hour makes sense because generally you drive 10 or 50 or 100 or 200 miles and are in the car for half an hour or an hour or two hours so the scale of the measurement matches the scale of the use. But watches you don't stare at for hours at a time. So why do you care it's beating 20,000 times per hour? Just stupid.

The Christopher Ward is better, but PRX is a nice looking watch, too. However, Tissot is easier to get serviced. Whereas the Ward is difficult to get serviced outside the U.K.

The CW is a better watch all around.

CW has awesome case but hideous dial. It's one of the most ugliest dials I've ever seen.

PRX design blows the Twelve out of the water

The PRX movement is made of plastic and irreparabel. This is not a good one!

Tissot is so boring looking. Straight lines for the hands, straight lines for the markings, plain circle face no chamfering or bevelling it's reallllly boring I'm yawning just looking at it

Prx with plastic in the movement!!!! No way, Christopher Ward EVER time.

Tissot PRX for me 😉

Prx with plastic in the movement!!!! No way, Christopher Ward EVER time.
