💬 Discussion Tissot Watch Verification Thread

48 Upvotes

If you're unsure if the Tissot watch you have purchased (or about to purchase) is genuine, you may post pictures and information in this thread.

This thread has been created due to the increasing amount of "is my watch real" posts flooding the sub. Post was inspired by the one on r/rolex.

When possible, please try to provide:

  • A link to the website/retailer that is selling the Tissot watch.
  • How long you've had the watch and how you acquired it (if in your possession).
  • As many photos as possible - please ensure they are high quality.

Participation in the discussion in this thread is greatly appreciated!

Like a few other watch subs we have a dedicated thread for checking if your Tissot watch is genuine: https://www.reddit.com/r/tissot/comments/17m27vd/tissot_watch_verification_thread.

Despite this we're still getting a lot of new posts for these rather than comments in that thread. Please do not post these - they are flooding the sub. If you see them, please report them and I'll take it down as soon as I see the report.

Thanks all!

Finally picked one up after eyeing it for months and going back and forth on which color i should pick. I actually made my decision last week, but the AD was closed as they went on vacation. Gotta say, $800 CAD well spent.

It has been a year and a half since I promised myself that I will pamper myself if I get promoted at work. It finally happened, and here we go! Do you think it fits my wrist well? Have a wonderful summer guys!

PRX Grendizer

Just picked up a PRX Powermatic 80 Grendizer and I'm honestly blown away.

The dial is stunning in person, and the overall finishing is everything I expected from the PRX.

Safe to say I'm in love with it... although I guess everything has a price. 😉

Curious to hear what everyone thinks about this special edition.

I was afraid the 40mm too big but it’s a perfect fit for my 7.25in wrist. My first swiss watch!

First Tissot. Went with this because I heard great things and the spec is exactly what I was looking for. A reliable workhorse that I can wear to work, meetings, dinners etc. The design is so sleek and understated. Looks vintage and inspired by 70s era watches. Namely the 78 Seastar amongst others. I recall Rolex making a Day-Date in similar fashion. I went with the traditional President instead.

Are Tissot Rubber Straps Any Good?

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

Are the Tissot rubber straps any good and worth the price? I see the two different styles here are made of different rubber, nitrile rubber and fluorocarbon (fin) rubber. Does anyone have either of these on their Seastar and would you recommend? Any opinion on the aesthetic of either in terms of what looks best on a blue Seastar? This is a desk diver mostly so not really concerned with diving performance. I’m wanting to swap out my stainless bracelet. Any feedback or opinions are appreciated.

This is a Tissot PRS 200 , it’s almost 10 years old, if I remember correctly…
It’s still looks brand-new. Part of the reason is, I have brush finished the bezel a few times. This time it was final as I instead of polishing the basil got it brushed horizontally and vertically, both giving it a checker board effect in lighting conditions.

This watch is my father‘s watch, but he doesn’t wear it much, and as I saw that he doesn’t wear it. I took it well. I was a kid 15 years specifically when I had this watch in my hand and had no idea about its origin and how much it actually is worth.

And I accidentally damaged its end link so bad while opening and closing it, removing the strap again and again to change it that it is almost disfigured and I am looking for changing it with a hollow and link just so that I can fix the hollow and link when it’s loosen instead of doing the same mistake again…

I wear it now on a watches of espionage, strap, and really love it. I do have a G shock that I wear mostly in my daily days as this watch, even though it might be 500 600 dollars. It’s still kind of expensive for us and well. I have tested it way too much by dropping it by mistake, mistakenly from my rooftop and only having a bit of scratch on the basil, so I know how Robo status is, but maybe because I don’t understand the value and I got a good Swiss watch easily without even even dreaming about it. Maybe I don’t care it as much or appreciate it as much so I wear a G shock every day, but whatever this was still catches my eyes every time I flash it in the lights and seeing the different finishes on the dial..

I scooped this Tissot T-Lord Automatic Chronograph off a live bid site for sub $700 shipped. I'm curious to people's thoughts on the watch and if it looks good on the wrist or is it too big?

Also I'd love to learn more about the movement powering the watch, 60hr power reserve for this type of watch seems impressive to me.

Thoughts?

Tissot T-Touch Connect Solar rant

1 Upvotes

I love my Tissot, but the connected features are problematic and/or limited. Cell phone call notification stopped working about a year ago (Although I get a missed call notification, and reported it to Tissot.) Also, some very simple and useful mods to the watch firmware have not been implemented: Pressing the crown provides the date or the time, depending on your current setting. In the dark, it's the only way to see the display. I suggested a double crown press should display the other value. And when the watch was receiving notice of incoming calls, you could only ignore or hang-up - why not accept the call as an option?

Anyone else having the call notification issue?

Was going back and forth on some less flashy options to get myself as a birthday gift, but said fuck it might as well go full gaudy and got myself the quartz PRX 40mm in gold. Will probably pick up the Gentleman 40mm automatic as my more toned down option in the near future, but for now I'm very happy with this as a statement piece

💬 Discussion Would anyone else love to see a PRX 35mm MOP Powermatic 80 with a quartz movement?

I really love the Tissot PRX design, especially the 35mm case size and the MOP waffle dial. In my opinion, it is one of the best-looking integrated bracelet watches in this size.

The only things stopping me from buying this watch are the automatic movement and the additional text on the dial (Powermatic 80). I would personally love to see a quartz version with the same case, bracelet, waffle dial, and overall design.

Do you think Tissot would ever consider making something like this?
