Owner review: Tissot PRX Quartz

The blue dial Tissot PRX Quartz is one of my favorite watches in my collection. It holds a special place in my heart. Having just returned home from a successful business trip to Anaheim, CA, I was exhausted. The week-long event was an unforgettable experience, and I wanted to cap it off with something to…

Owner review: Tissot PRX Chronograph

The Tissot PRX Chronograph is a newly released automatic chronograph in the modern Tissot PRX line. The current MSRP is $1750 USD. I am still in the honeymoon phase but I have been able to formulate some opinions about it. Dial: sapphire crystal, silver dial with contrasting black subdials, rose gold hands with Superluminova, 4:30…

Owner review: Tissot PRX Powermatic 80

The Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 is a watch you can actually buy! We live in a world now of horological shortages which are affecting a number of high end Swiss watch brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, FP Journe, and even Vacheron Constantin. It doesn’t stop there. Even Tudor’s popular models such as…

Owner Review: Tissot PR 516

Tissot is an iconic name in the world of horology. They have been in business since 1853 and have had a hand in Motorsport since 1958 when Swiss driver Harry Zweifel sent Tissot a signed photograph of him in wearing his Tissot and he wrote on the photo “my Tissot is by my side, every…

Owner Review: Tissot Everytime – My First Night Out with a New Watch

I’m completely sober waiting with my unbalanced and slurring friends outside of a nightclub. My white button-down shirt is stained with someone else’s vodka and Coke. I look down at my Tissot Everytime. The dial reads 11 o’clock. We have been standing in line since before 10. We’re in an alleyway standing next to a…

Owner Review: Tissot PRC 200 Powermatic 80

In the world of Swiss watches, Tissot offers great heritage and a whole lot of different models to choose from – something for everyone, in every price range. However, I’ve always found their designs to be a mixed bag – there are some good ones, alright, but they have to be sieved from the pile…

Owner Review: Tissot Research Idea 2001 – When 2001 was the Future!

Nick Hayek Jr once made an often repeated statement, “The Swatch watch saved the Swiss industry”. With that in mind, meet the original plastic watch. The Tissot Research IDEA 2001, launched in 1972 as a budget mechanical to fight quartz. The hermetically sealed Calibre 2250 movement is mostly self-lubricating plastic – Astoundingly the only metal…

Owner Review: Tissot Banana Heritage Centenary Edition

When I first cast my eyes on the Tissot Banana Heritage Centenary Edition, I was instantly captivated by its nostalgic appeal. There’s the unmistakably vintage black dial with silver hands; the petite onion crown with the yester-year “T” signature; and most visually appealing of all, the curve silhouette of the watch’s ultra-thin stainless steel case.…

Owner Review: Tissot T-Sport V8 Swissmatic – All revved up with a Swiss V8

When it comes to Tissot, it’s a brand that needs no introduction. Worn by the likes of Elvis Presley, The Duchess of Cambridge and Nelson Mandela, Tissot are in my humble opinion the underdogs of the Swatch group. When I came to find this piece I was in the market for something bold, black and…
