New Release
India Whiskey Charlie's initial impressions of the Tissot PRX Chronograph sparked a lively debate among collectors, focusing on its value proposition and design choices. His post, featuring detailed imagery, invites the community to weigh in on whether this new release lives up to the PRX line's reputation for accessible luxury. This discussion is particularly relevant for those considering the mechanical chronograph variant against its time-only counterpart.
I like the design and the finishing. As you point out, it is inarguably a great value for what they are charging. Thanks for posting, Filip
My only doubt is how long these vintage looking models will stay trendy. That's why I prefer to pass, and stick to timeless classic looking models. Best, E.
The non chronograph version is $650. The Chronograph adds $1100? And this bracelet is just made in such an industrialized fashion, my non-chronograph PRX, which remains unworn and unsized, even exhibits the drill holes on the bracelet sides! Tres Horrible! The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch may be too much money for a person considering a Tissot PRX, since the Moonwatch is 3x the money, but I'd save my money by just going for the time-only version. That being said, a PRX would be great for someone
Especially, the blue dial one.
Chronographs are usually much more expensive and mechanical ones particularly. With the PRX range, Tissot seems to have nailed it though it is a commercial success.
I'm pleasantly surprised too. And yes, the date could well be left out for optical reasons. But then there are certainly many watch lovers who would not buy the watch for that very reason. π Best Thomas
