I bought another watch.

Somebody stop me…

I don’t feel too bad because I sold the Laco two days ago, I never wear it. When I felt like wearing a Flieger I just went to the IWC every single time.

Ordered the brand new PRX 80 in green, it was just announced today.



Looks teal in this photo but in videos it looked green. We will see.

CHIP I've been considering one of those for a while. The Green might push me over the edge so to speak also. Can't wait to see pictures of yours, congrats!

I’ve been looking at those as well. It’s a really nice piece.

I kinda wish I got the blue now, since you can get factory straps for if.
Green doesn’t have that option at the moment.

I have a couple of friends with the blue one and it’s a lot nicer than it should be for 650.

Wait a bit. Buy mine at a discount once i am bored with it LoL.

I see they announced two chronographs in the series. The white one is quartz while the blue is automatic. I wish the white one had silver or black hands, not a fan of the rose gold on this version.

CHIP - I saw those the other day on Twitter and it kind of reminds me of the AP RO. Congrats on the pickup.

I like the white version a lot - the white, black and gold are a really nice looking combination.

Interesting some articles mention both quartz and automatics and others only automatic…

Edit, just went back to Time and Tide and they have removed references to the quartz version.

I watched that video last night and was blown away. Really like the Chronograph version and of course the Green dial. This puts me in a bad place, because I want those.

This is a good sign for Tissot, because it's not often (if ever) I see a new release these days and actually feel drawn to it enough to even consider.

I don’t know how I feel about this.
It’s now been 5 days and I have yet to receive even a simple confirmation email.
They took the money off my card last Friday but zero emails, no order number, etc.
their site has no way to look up an order.

I know he’s legit but I’m less than pleased with the experience so far.

[rw16610]

CHIP I'm very sorry to hear this. In your shoes I too would be disappointed. Even for the smallest of online purchases, it's common courtesy to receive some sort of email notification. Any chance it may have gone to junk mail? It does sound though like they've missed the mark on this regardless, because after placing the order something should've been instantly provided on screen.

When the watch does arrive in sure you'll be happy with it. Until then, I wonder how you can get in touch with them for more clarify. Not something you should have to do, but it would be nice to know.

I was on the fence with this one until I discovered the vintage Omega for not much more. Keep us posted here but I'm sure you'll have further information soon on this lovely piece.
