![[Tissot Gentleman T1274071104100] Is Tissot a good brand to get into luxury watches with?](https://alien.top/pictrs/image/15ca0094-e15d-44fd-ad91-69d8502c7249.webp){kind=link}
I daily an Apple Watch but have been increasingly interested in getting a nice dress watch.
My dream watch is the Rolex Datejust with the jubilee bracelet and fluted bezel, but I don’t have 12-14k to cough up for one.
Looking at some of the other brands, even a few grand on a luxury watch is a bit much for me for anything similar (Tudor, seiko, omega etc. I never knew those brands were in the thousands).
I found this Tissot and I think it’s gorgeous, but I don’t know too much about the brand. This watch is the Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium Automatic, which runs $825. The Quartz model is half the price, $425, so I’m curious what the major difference is to demand double for the automatic.
Thank you!
Absolutely. Great brand with history, looks, finish, and the movement to back it up. The gentleman is a good choice, and I like it more than the prx. Do yourself a favor and pick up the automatic with the powermatic 80 movement. You will not regret it. One thing though, don’t pay full retail for these. It can be had for around $550 or $500 used.
