I hate it when this happens. Almost impossible to have something delivered in a timely manner around Christmas.Fedex fuxxed up my delivery...Now I won't have it under the tree
People complain about TD shipping from China. I have never had any watch from China being in transit limbo.

I am looking at removing the second hand of my PRX (quartz) just to get the above look
...as it is the quartz PRXs are known for their second hand not hitting all their marks.
100x yes

A quick review, I will post some pic later.
The 80 movement,40mm:
Tissot borrows heavily from Rolex, VC, AP & Patek on the PRX
The design and balance is very nice. Gold plating looks good. Both case and bracelet is done my the same plating provide. Many REPs have different suppliers on the case and bracelets and we end up different shades of gold.
Movement is super smooth and probably serviced by the factory. By far the most value add-on the watch.
Bracelet feels cheap but a baby old bath improved it.
Crystal looks cheap and the AP inspired dial is pure trash. Lume is terrible. Worst I have ever seen so far on any watch.
The watch looks and feel slike a fake gold watch. 3/10 and is way below any top tier REP factory.
One time in the future I will mod this with a black dial.
Would I buy this as GEN : No way
The quartz movement, 35mm:
Wears small for a 35mm but can be featured as a nice dress watch. My review on this is the same as with the 40mm but the Champagne dial looks much nicer. Lume is still shit.
Would I buy this as GEN : Maybe
Both watches will vanish into my watch collection never to be seen again.
