Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Owner Review : Reliable, versatile and precise

I have owned this watch for 2 and a half years now, I am still so happy to have fallen for it. It ticked all the boxes I was looking for in a first mechanical watch: "Swiss made" watch from a well-known and recognized brand, with a large power reserve (80 hours) and automatic winding, open back, reliable and precise movement with a maintenance price that will not be exorbitant, simple but elegant blue dial as well as an attractive price (less than €700 at the watchmaker thanks to a reduction before confinement). Currently, I have nothing to say about the famous Powermatic 80 Silicium. It is still as reliable! It loses 2 seconds per day, which is more than honorable for a watch that is not COSC certified. In summary, even after all this time I still take great pleasure in wearing it and feeling it on my wrist whether with a T-shirt or a shirt. The only negative point is that its metal bracelet gets a lot of micro-scratches on the polished facets, even when being very careful. I can only recommend it if it validates your search criteria.
