2 Best Tissot PRX Review Picks in 2026

Last updated 31 October 2026

This Tissot PRX review ranks two exact blue-dial picks from the family. Our first pick, T1374101104100, is the 40 mm quartz for a battery-powered routine. Our second, T1372071104100, is the 35 mm automatic for a smaller case and a mechanical movement. Choose by fit and routine: these versions differ in size as well as movement.

How we picked the Tissot PRX review references

We put quartz first for buyers who want the PRX bracelet without a winding routine. The automatic is the smaller-case alternative for someone who wants a wound spring. Both picks reuse our exact-reference reviews and have qualifying new US offers within this site's ceiling. The order follows those buyer needs and the maker's facts. No watch was worn or timed here.

The case may settle your choice before the movement does. A longer reserve will not fix a poor fit. Nor will a dial finish you like. Start with fit, then decide how you want the watch to keep running.

Two PRX references, with their dimensions kept separate

These figures come from the quartz reference page and the automatic reference page. Both have steel cases and sapphire crystals. Their bracelets use push-button butterfly clasps, but you should match replacement parts to the exact reference and size.

The automatic's smaller width does not mean it is thinner. That is a useful detail if your watch needs to pass beneath a shirt cuff. Compare the case profile, not just the diameter in a retailer's headline.

#1. PRX Quartz T1374101104100: the larger battery-powered choice

Our verdict:

Quartz bracelet option

The quartz PRX suits a buyer who likes the larger case and wants to avoid winding, but the bracelet's full rigid span still needs a fit check.

Keep in mind: Case width does not establish the bracelet's full reach on your wrist.

The quartz reference is the choice here if you prefer a 40 mm case and want to avoid winding. Check its bracelet on your wrist before choosing it for the size alone.

#2. PRX Powermatic 80 T1372071104100: the smaller automatic choice

Tissot PRX Automatic T1372071104100

Our verdict:

Smaller PRX automatic

Choose it for the smaller PRX case and spring-powered movement, but check the bracelet reach and accept setting after a long rest.

Keep in mind: The smaller case is not a fit promise; the bracelet can extend beyond the quoted case dimensions.

This smaller reference changes the case size and the power routine at once. Choose it because both suit you, rather than assuming that an automatic movement is an upgrade for every buyer.

Bracelet reach matters on both sizes

The PRX case and first links form a shape that a width figure cannot fully describe. Links can reach past the case before they bend around the wrist. Check the whole watch on your wrist, even if you tend to choose by case width.

Ask for the full rigid span of the exact version if the published dimensions do not state it. Do not confuse it with case length or clasp width. Try the watch with a sensible bracelet adjustment, then check it with your hand relaxed and your wrist bent.

Our PRX lug-to-lug worksheet keeps those measurements apart. It gives no made-up wrist-size range when the full span is unknown.

Quartz power or a wound spring?

The quartz PRX runs from a battery. The automatic stores energy in a spring and winds through a rotor as you wear it. That is an ownership choice, rather than a reason to call one watch a more serious purchase.

If you want to rotate watches and avoid winding, start with quartz. If you enjoy the mechanical movement and accept setting it after a long rest, consider the automatic. Tissot states an 80-hour reserve for the smaller Powermatic 80, but this page did not measure it.

A watch left unworn may not begin that rest fully wound. The quoted reserve therefore cannot promise how long it will run after your particular day. Think about whether resetting is a task you enjoy or one you want to avoid.

For the mechanism in more detail, read automatic versus quartz. The choice makes more sense when it follows your habits rather than a ranking of movement types.

Dial finish and date use

The quartz reference has a smooth blue dial. The automatic uses a textured blue dial. Both show the date. Those are visible differences worth checking in person or in clear pictures of the exact reference.

Do not choose a movement just to get a dial finish you like without considering its routine. Equally, do not dismiss the finish if the watch is something you will look at throughout the day. Appearance matters, but it does not prove accuracy or durability.

Read the matching instructions before setting the date. A collection name does not settle crown positions or date-change limits for every movement in the range.

What this Tissot PRX review does not measure

The comparison does not report measured timekeeping, glow duration or scratch resistance. The maker identifies the crystal material and luminous material; those facts do not become a test result here. Fit judgments also remain conditional on your wrist and bracelet adjustment.

Both references carry a 10-bar water-resistance specification. Follow the maker's care guidance for the actual watch. A pressure figure does not make either model a certified diver or remove the need to consider seal condition.

Verdict on the Tissot PRX review

Choose the 40 mm quartz reference if its larger case fits and you want a battery-powered routine. Choose the 35 mm automatic if the smaller case fits and the mechanical movement is part of the appeal. A movement preference should not hide a fit problem.

Confirm the exact reference, supplied bracelet and seller's return terms before buying. The useful result of this Tissot PRX review is a narrower choice based on fit and routine. It is not a claim that one version is right for every wrist.
