FAQs

What is the power reserve of the Powermatic 80 movement?

The Powermatic 80 movement has an impressive power reserve of 80 hours.

Is the silicon balance spring beneficial?

Yes, the silicon balance spring significantly enhances the watch's precision, longevity, and resistance to magnetic fields.

How do I clean the watch?

Clean the stainless steel case and crystal with a soft, damp cloth. Use a dedicated leather cleaner for the strap and condition it periodically.

What is the water resistance rating?

The watch is typically designed to withstand splashes and brief immersion. Always ensure the crown is secure before water exposure and avoid prolonged submersion.

Can I change the strap?

Yes, the watch usually features a standard lug width, allowing for replacement with other compatible straps.

Do I need to wind this watch?

It is an automatic watch, powered by the motion of your wrist. However, if it has stopped, you can manually wind it by turning the crown 30-40 times before wearing.

What material is the bezel made of?

The bezel is crafted from solid 18K yellow gold.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is losing time.

Ensure the watch has been worn for a sufficient duration to wind the mainspring. If not, manually wind the crown approximately 30-40 times. If the issue persists, the power reserve may be compromised, or the movement may require servicing.

Date is not changing correctly.

Ensure you are not trying to adjust the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the movement. Set the time to past 3 AM, adjust the date, then set the correct time.

Scratches on the crystal.

Sapphire crystal is highly scratch-resistant, but not indestructible. Minor scuffs may be buffed out by a watchmaker. For deeper scratches, the crystal will need to be replaced by a qualified professional.

Strap is showing signs of wear.

Leather straps require care. Clean and condition regularly. If the strap becomes significantly worn, cracked, or damaged, it can be replaced with a compatible strap of the same lug width.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional 80-hour power reserve for extended use between windings.
  • Enhanced precision and durability due to the silicon balance spring.
  • Luxurious combination of stainless steel and 18K yellow gold.
  • Versatile design suitable for both formal and casual wear.
  • Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal ensures clarity and protection.

Cons

  • 40mm case size might be large for individuals with smaller wrists.
  • Leather strap may require replacement over time with heavy use.
  • Automatic watch requires regular wear or winding to maintain accuracy.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As an automatic watch, the Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium is powered by the motion of your wrist. To set the time and date, gently pull the crown outwards. The first position typically adjusts the date (clockwise) and the second position adjusts the time. Ensure the crown is fully pushed back in after setting to maintain water resistance. If the watch has stopped, wind it manually by turning the crown clockwise approximately 30-40 times before wearing it.

Compatibility: This watch is designed as a standalone timepiece. Its strap is typically a standard lug width, allowing for potential replacement with other compatible leather, NATO, or metal bracelets from third-party manufacturers should you wish to customize its look.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel case and sapphire crystal with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. The leather strap should be cleaned with a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner to prevent drying and cracking.
  • Water Resistance: While designed to withstand splashes and brief immersion, avoid prolonged submersion. Always ensure the crown is securely in place before exposure to water.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the watch in a cool, dry place, ideally in its original box or a soft pouch to prevent scratches. Avoid storing near strong magnetic fields.
