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.

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.

@TheGrenadier97 Жыл бұрын

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.

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.

@SunsetSheen Жыл бұрын

They finally nailed the date window on the PRX. It’s properly aligned with the rest of the indices whereas on the other models it was way off center. GS are masters of getting this design feature right.

@calmck2 Жыл бұрын

The reason it is off centre on the larger sizes is because of the movement. The movement size is standard across the range, it never changes, so neither does the date wheel position internally. This means on larger watches it appears closer to the centre when looking at the dial, whilst it is further out towards the indices on smaller watches. By making the case smaller Tissot have put the date wheel in the correct place, they haven't engineered the movement too accomplish this as GS do. The Powermatic 80 is based on an ETA 2824, all companies utilising this movement have the same issue. Check out the excellent date position on the Hamilton Khaki Field Watch 38mm vs the poor placement on the 40mm with the printed "15" second indicator pushed horribly inwards!

@tiagodvt Жыл бұрын

@@calmck2well I think it looks better on the 40, with the 3 o'clock indice. Seems more symmetrical to me. But I'm fine with both designs.

@Nightfury0695 Жыл бұрын

The date window alligment is even horrible with the Hamilton Khaki Field 38mm and 42mm. Any Powermatic movement which is used in different case size have the issue.

@SunsetSheen Жыл бұрын

@@calmck2 Can't you just utilize a larger date wheel on larger models that would subsequently cause the date window to fall in line with the other indices? I'd be surprised if the manufacturer had to re-engineer the entire movement to accomplish this. This is evidenced by the many micro brands that use off the shelf movements and have perfectly aligned date windows. I think it's more so that Tissot is pumping out so many watches, and this is such a small detail to most, that they don't think it's worth the additional effort to properly align the date window. For those with OCD like myself, once you notice this design feature there's no unseeing it.

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.
