Okay, so I’ve been eyeing the Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 for a while, but I was always hesitant about the size. The 40mm version just felt a bit too big for my wrist. Then, boom! Tissot drops the 35mm version, and I knew I had to try it.
First thing I did was hit up some online forums and watch a bunch of YouTube reviews. I needed to see this thing on different wrists, get a feel for the size, and, you know, make sure it wasn’t going to look like a toy on me.
The Hunt Begins
After my online research, I decided to go check out a local store. I just had to see it in person. I walked in, and there it was, gleaming under the lights. I asked the salesperson if I could try it on, and my heart was kinda racing.
The moment I put it on, I knew it was perfect. The 35mm size is absolutely spot-on for my smaller wrist. It doesn’t overhang, it sits comfortably, and it just looks… right. It has that integrated bracelet that looks so sleek, and the waffle dial is stunning when looked at.
Putting It Through Its Paces
- Wearing it daily: I’ve been wearing this watch every single day since I got it. To work, to the gym, even just chilling at home. It’s surprisingly versatile.
- Checking the accuracy: I’m a bit of a stickler for accuracy, so I’ve been keeping an eye on how well it keeps time. The Powermatic 80 movement is supposed to have an 80-hour power reserve, and so far, it’s been living up to the hype.
- Admiring the details I love automatic watches, I can watch them run through their casebacks and so this watch is a treat.
Honestly, I’m loving this watch. The 35mm Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 is a total winner in my book. It’s the perfect size, it’s got a classic yet modern look, and it’s just a joy to wear. If you’ve been on the fence about the PRX because of the size, definitely give the 35mm a shot. You might just fall in love like I did.
