PRX Powermatic 80 Ice Blue
The PRX in its most wanted colour
Buy the Powermatic 80 if you want a mechanical movement, an 80-hour reserve and a see-through caseback; it is the PRX enthusiasts keep. Buy the quartz if you want the same PRX shape, sapphire and 100 m rating as a slimmer, always-ready watch for roughly half the price.

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.
The PRX 40mm Quartz Light Green: A buyer who wants the PRX silhouette as an easy everyday watch, or a first good watch that does not need winding. Choose the Powermatic 80 version if a mechanical movement is part of the appeal, or a lug-and-strap watch if you like to change the look often.
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.
There is no exhibition caseback or mechanical movement to enjoy, and the integrated bracelet limits strap changes to PRX-compatible options.
