Within he Tissot PRX range, the Powermatic 80 models represent the collection’s finest offerings. Built for hose who value both precision and style, these watches boast a remarkably thin design, allowing for a comfortable fit that’s as dependable as it is refined.
The Tissot PRX isn’t a newcomer – it brings with it a storied history that begun in 1978 with the original PRX 40 205 model. The name PRX stands for “Power, Robust, X” – where “X” represents 10 ATM water resistance, a feature that remains central to the collection today. Modern PRX Powermatic 80 watches honour the original with a bold barrel-shaped case, sharp edges, and a refined, slim 10.9mm profile a 40mm case, making it highly wearable. Those looking for a more compact option can explore the 35mm PRX Powermatic 80 models also available with Time+Tide.
The dial is the heart of any watch, and the Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 takes this to new heights. Unlike its Quartz counterparts, this model’s dial has an elevated appeal, underscoring its premium status. Its standout feature is the tapisserie-patterned dial, available in a variety of striking colour options. Long, slim, lume-filled hour markers enhance readability, while a date window is neatly positioned at 3 o’clock, seamlessly aligned with the hour index for a refined look.
