Who should buy which.
The Presage Blue Moon: A blue-dial enthusiast looking for a dressier steel-bracelet watch.
The Le Locle Powermatic 80 Blue: Someone who wants a slim, traditional automatic for work and occasions, with the convenience of a long power reserve. Choose the PRX or Gentleman if you want 100 m water resistance and a sportier everyday watch.
Before you order.
The larger case deserves a fit check, and the official US store currently lists this reference as sold out.
Water resistance is 30 m, so treat it as splash-proof rather than a swimming watch. Roman numerals and a bracelet make a formal statement that will not suit everyone’s daily style.
