Key Features and Specifications
The Tissot PRX Powermatic 80 is offered in both 40mm and 35mm case sizes, with the automatic versions featuring a distinctive textured “tapisserie” (waffle) dial pattern.

Movement: Swiss automatic Powermatic 80.111 caliber (an upgraded ETA 2824-2 base) with a patented Nivachron balance spring for resistance to magnetism and temperature variations.
Power Reserve: An impressive 80 hours, which means the watch can be left unworn for over three days and still be running when picked up again.
Case: Tonneau-shaped case made of 316L stainless steel with a mix of vertical brushed finishes and polished accents on the bezel and bevelled edges. It features a see-through caseback.
Crystal: Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating for durability and clarity.
Water Resistance: Water-resistant up to 10 bar (100 m / 330 ft), making it suitable for everyday wear and splashes, though not specifically a diver’s watch.
Bracelet: Integrated stainless steel bracelet that tapers for comfort, featuring a mix of brushed and polished links and a butterfly clasp with push-buttons. It also uses a quick-release system for easy strap changes.
Dial: Available in various colors (e.g., black, blue, green, ice blue) with applied indices and hands coated with Super-LumiNova for low-light visibility.
