Tissot Made An Affordable PRX Chronograph I Didnโt Expect to Prefer
The automatic PRX Chronograph has always been an interesting proposition, although its 42mm case, 14.54mm thickness, and $2,150 price put some distance between it and the accessible appeal of the original PRX. Tissotโs new PRX Chronograph Quartz brings that idea back down to $525, trims the case to 41mm by 11.65mm, and adds a few functions that benefit from going quartz. I think this might be the PRX chronograph that makes more sense for the collection.
Timex May Have Just Built a More Serious Affordable Dive Watch Than Seiko
Timex makes its most competitive affordable dive watch yet with the Deepwater Meridian 200 HEV, bringing serious specs to a $469 automatic.
Christopher Ward Takes On Rolex and Omega With Its New Chronograph
Look at the new Christopher Ward C63 Sealander Chronograph in white and tell me you didnโt immediately think of a Rolex Daytona. I did. And I think Christopher Ward knows exactly what they’re doing here. The new C63 marks the return of a mechanical chronograph to Christopher Wardโs regular lineup after roughly six years away. The brand has made chronographs before, including the C9 Single Pusher and C1000 Typhoon, though the complication never became a major part of its catalog. This time, Christopher Ward has built one around the recently updated Sealander and given it a very recognizable face.
Can This New Legendary Bulova Military Watch Compete With the Hamilton Khaki Field?
Bulova is returning to one of its World War II-era military designs with the new A-11 Jimmy, a 37mm automatic field watch based on the Type A-11 watches the company produced for the U.S. military beginning in 1942. It arrives in early October and coincides with Jimmy, the upcoming Jimmy Stewart biopic for which Bulova served as a material-heritage partner. The movie connection isnโt really what I care about, though.
Citizen Is Coming for the Rolex Datejust With Its New Affordable Automatic Watch
The Tsuyosa has become a broad and deeply well-received collection for Citizen. I’m not surprised at this point. What started as a straightforward 40mm automatic has since branched into smaller cases, new dial treatments, upgraded movements, and increasingly elaborate bracelets. With the new Tsuyosa 60 37mm, several of those developments finally land in one watch. And I think the result pushes the Tsuyosa closer to Rolex Datejust territory than it has been before.
