PRX Powermatic 80 40mm

T137.407.11.041.00

$850

Everyday, office, formal, travel

The PRX brings the integrated bracelet look of 1970s luxury sports watches down to an honest Swiss price. Inside is the Powermatic 80, so it keeps running through a full weekend off the wrist, and the case stays under 11mm thick with 100m of water resistance and sapphire on both sides. The waffle textured blue dial and quick release bracelet make it the easiest watch in this tier to wear with a suit on Monday and shorts on Saturday.

Its slim case and integrated bracelet wear like a watch costing several times more.

What owners say

Owners on WatchUSeek and long term reviewers praise the dial, the thin case and the weekend proof power reserve, and many call it the best value integrated bracelet watch on sale. Recurring complaints are the bracelet, which lacks fine adjustment and can sit loose or tight between links, isolated reports of gritty winding or a sticking crown, and debate over whether the Powermatic 80 can be serviced outside Swatch Group.
