Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium Ice Blue
or PRX Powermatic 80 Ice Blue?

Choose the Gentleman if you want one round watch with lugs that takes any 21 mm strap and adds a silicon balance spring. Choose the PRX if the integrated seventies case and bracelet is the look you are after; it is slimmer but less flexible on straps.

Who should buy which.

The Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium Ice Blue: A buyer who wants one automatic that looks right in a meeting, on the weekend and on holiday. Choose the PRX if you want the integrated-bracelet look, or the Le Locle if you mainly need a slim formal watch.

The PRX Powermatic 80 Ice Blue: Someone who wants one steel automatic for office and weekend, with a dial colour that stands out from the usual black, blue and silver. Skip it if you want to change straps freely, or if pale dials disappear against your skin tone in photos you like. The blue-dial PRX is the quieter choice.

Before you order.

At 11.5 mm it is thicker than the Le Locle, and the 21 mm lug width narrows your aftermarket strap choices compared with the more common 20 or 22 mm.

The integrated bracelet is the whole design, so fit depends on the 39.5 mm case length and the first links rather than a strap you can swap. Tissot does not publish an effective lug-to-lug figure.
