One of the big resellers has the digital PRX with some models around $160. I wonder if they will go any lower? I told myself I would buy one when they hit bottom, I just don't know when that will be.

Hi all, hoping for a little guidance. Anewbie to the forum but a little bit of experiencing tinkering with time pieces

I've just got my hands on this Sideral which seems to be running well.

Only problem is I can't seem to change the time.

The crown appears to have a first position away from the case but when wound it still appears to be loading the spring rather than moving the hands.

On a further pull the stem removes (a little too easily) as i would expect to remove the movement…

Hi.

So my dad recently passed away, and I'm inheriting a collection of watches from him, 3 of which are Tissot's.

However, I have no experience with this brand whatsoever, so I'm wondering if anyone here would help me identify these pieces?

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone. I'm trying to find out the model of my late Grandmother's watch. It doesn't have any distinguishing marks other than what I think is a gold mark near the crown which reads *75. I think it's either a 2 or 3.

Hey Everyone,

Tune in as I unbox my first Tissot watch – the jaw dropping Forged Carbon PRX Powermatic 80 (model T137.907.97.201.00). It was arguably one of the most talked about watche releases under $1000 in 2024 and a top choice among the entire PRX series lineup. It’s a stunning piece with an upgraded movement in the PRX lineup with a silicon balance spring which is a huge plus. The forged carbon dial is really dynamic and it is one of my favorite things about this watch. Hope you guys…

Hi, I am looking for any leads on the translucent strap that came with the Two Timer. They come in a variety of colors. I believe it is plastic or rubber. I own a few Two Timers but they came with metal bands - looking to replace them with the original translucent strap they came with. Looking through Ebay and other third-party sellers and I can't seem to find them being sold separately. Any leads would be helpful!

In my preview, these pictures look humungus, but I don't know how to scale them down, so sorry if they are obnoxiously large.

There are lots of (often bland) variants of the Powermatic 80, but after seeing this one, I was never able to get it out of my mind. The dial is anthracite (a type of coal) which makes sense because it was created to mark the anniversary of a Swiss rail line in...

The date wheel will move off-centre when I move watch. Overnight will set to next day but then move again as before.
Anyone have any idea what's happening?
Thanks

I am in love with the Glashutte Original Senator Excellence, white dial and blue hands, Roman numerals, no date. But, last month I bought an Aqua Terra, so it’ll be a while before I get the GO. A long while.

Last week I stumbled across a FS post for this beautiful watch that has many of the attributes I like in the GO, but much more wallet friendly. The seller was amazing and the watch is now mine. I struggled a bit to remove the bracelet, but now have it on a brown Hirsch strap. I…

I have been looking for a higher end brand than the collection I have now. Omega attracts me but they are just out of reach. I saw this one at an online shop and the price is in my comfort zone.
How do Tissot's stack up against Omega's. This one is in the $300 - $400 zone and the Omega's I like are not.
