The New Tissot PRX 35MM Powermatic 80: A Disco-Era Feel Alpine Mornings?
5 min read
With the re-release of its sporty, '70s-inspired PRX line in 2021, initially in quartz and then with Swiss-made Powermatic automatic movements, Tissot hit the perfect spot. The Tissot PRX is undoubtedly one of the hottest watches available right now. It's simple to understand why this watch is so well-liked when you consider its classy and unusual retro style, as well as its accessible pricing.
The PRX 35mm Powermatic 80, which was introduced last month, has now received the Midas touch from Tissot, which has also added two further models to the lineup. In other words, a Gold PVD case is now available for the PRX 35mm Powermatic 80, giving it a hefty dose of disco-era elegance.
As an alternative, Tissot also debuted a stainless steel watch with an Ice Blue dial. Its dial is waffled to catch the light "like snow on a crisp morning," according to the manufacturer, and it "glows like a frozen Alpine morning."
This contemporary interpretation of a lasting legacy adds a splash of bold color and evokes memories of the free-spirited late '70s era. These watches mark a daring yet elegant departure from the norm. Even though they stand out, these unique colors are made to be adaptable, fitting the scene of a stylish rooftop party or the fast-paced pace of a busy city street.
These fresh colorways are sure to be popular. On Tissot's website, the Gold is already listed as sold out, while the Ice Blue variant is only available to one client.
The PRX 35mm Powermatic 80 is unaltered in all other respects. That means you receive a 35mm steel body with polished and satin finishes, as well as the Powermatic 80 automatic movement, which boasts an incredible 80-hour power reserve.
The dials have a date window at 3 o'clock and a unique waffle design that distinguishes these automatic models. The Tissot website currently offers the Gold and Ice Blue PRX 35mm Powermatic 80 versions.
