The Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 in Gold (40mm) is designed for individuals seeking a blend of vintage aesthetics and modern horological engineering. Its key benefit is the extended 80-hour power reserve, offering convenience for daily wear. A potential caveat is the 40mm case size, which may be substantial for those preferring smaller watches. This timepiece features an automatic movement, a stainless steel case with an 18K yellow gold bezel, a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and an exhibition caseback.

Powermatic 80 refers to the specific automatic movement used in this watch, which is engineered to provide an extended power reserve of up to 80 hours.
Yes, the product description indicates an 18K yellow gold bezel, meaning it is made of solid 18-karat gold.
Pull the crown out to the second position to set the time. It is crucial to *only* adjust the date between 9 PM and 3 AM to avoid potential damage to the movement. Always push the crown back in fully afterwards.
The PRX Powermatic 80 series typically has a water resistance rating of 100 meters (10 ATM). While suitable for accidental splashes and light rain, prolonged submersion or swimming is not generally recommended for optimal care, especially with the gold bezel.
Automatic watches typically require servicing every 3 to 5 years to maintain their accuracy and ensure the longevity of the internal components.
Yes, the PRX features an interchangeable quick-release bracelet system, allowing you to change straps easily without specialized tools.
The primary difference is the movement. This is an automatic watch (Powermatic 80) powered by the wearer's motion, whereas a quartz PRX is battery-powered and generally less complex.
Ensure the watch has sufficient power reserve by manually winding the crown 30-40 times clockwise. If the issue persists, it may require servicing.
Automatic watches have inherent tolerances. Significant deviations may require adjustment. Ensure the watch is not being exposed to strong magnetic fields. If deviation is more than +/- 10-15 seconds per day, contact a service center.
Ensure the crown is fully unscrewed before attempting to set time or wind. If it remains stiff, do not force it; there may be debris or an internal issue requiring professional attention.
This is normal for integrated bracelets. Ensure that the quick-release pins for strap changes are properly engaged if you have removed the bracelet.
Setup: The watch is powered by an automatic movement, meaning it self-winds with the motion of the wearer's wrist. If the watch has stopped, wind the crown approximately 30-40 turns clockwise while in the closed position to build up an initial power reserve. Ensure the crown is fully screwed down after setting the time to maintain water resistance.
Compatibility: The PRX Powermatic 80 is designed as a standalone timepiece. Its compatibility is primarily related to strap replacement. The watch utilizes a quick-release bracelet system, meaning standard spring bars are not used. Compatible replacement straps will need to be specifically designed for the Tissot PRX case profile.
