Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 automatic watch gradient blue dial steel bracelet 40 mm

The pitch

A few months after the success of the new generation T-Classic PRX, Tissot reissues its model with an automatic movement this time. A small leap in time for this iconic watch of the 70s.

Some history

It was at the end of the 1960s that Tissot took advantage of the wind of liberation from standard shapes to propose watches with trendy colours and a pop design. It was not until 1978 that the PRX collection was born, with a tonneau-shaped case, a smooth round bezel and a quartz movement, all carefully integrated into a steel bracelet. It was only a few years later that the brand decided to register the name PRX: "P R" for Precise and Robust and "X" or 10 in Roman numerals for the water resistance of the watch at 10 ATM (10 bars or 100m).

What to remember

Tissot is equipping its emblematic PRX model with its Powermatic 80 movement, and this new edition features a gradient blue guilloché dial. This colour brings freshness to the collection and will appeal to watch lovers looking for original models. An art form, an inspiring object, this watch will certainly take you back to the seventies with a contemporary mechanism !
