The quick answer.
Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80 Silicium Ice Blue is a 40 mm everyday watch at $802.40. We recommend it for a buyer who wants one automatic that looks right in a meeting, on the weekend and on holiday.
Why it belongs on the shortlist.
Where the PRX is a design statement, the Gentleman is a conventional round watch with lugs, so it works with any 21 mm strap as well as its quick-release bracelet. Ice blue gives it a lighter, more modern feel than the usual black or silver.
Our verdict: the one-watch answer.
If someone asks us for a single Swiss automatic under $1,000 that works everywhere, the Gentleman is our first suggestion. It has the proportions of a dress watch, the water resistance of a sports watch, and a movement spec that is unusual at this price.
What “Silicium” adds.
Tissot fits this Powermatic 80 with a silicon balance spring. Silicon is light and resists magnetism, which is the most common everyday threat to an automatic’s accuracy. Combined with the 80-hour reserve, it is a movement built for people who wear the watch rather than baby it.
Size and straps.
Tissot lists 40 mm across, 11.5 mm thick and a 21 mm lug width. The bracelet has quick-release bars, so you can swap to one of Tissot’s straps without tools. With a leather strap it moves noticeably closer to a dress watch.

Tissot’s US price is $950. Watches of America lists it at $802.40 with one-to-three-day shipping. Our 10% code is supplied for the retailer; confirm it applies at checkout and check warranty terms with the retailer before ordering.

Before you choose
At 11.5 mm it is thicker than the Le Locle, and the 21 mm lug width narrows your aftermarket strap choices compared with the more common 20 or 22 mm.
Who it suits.
A buyer who wants one automatic that looks right in a meeting, on the weekend and on holiday.
When to choose something else.
Choose the PRX if you want the integrated-bracelet look, or the Le Locle if you mainly need a slim formal watch.
Warranty, returns and ownership.
Watches of America lists a one-year retailer warranty and a 30-day return window on eligible items; conditions and a restocking fee may apply. Tissot’s own warranty is described for purchases through its boutiques and authorized retailers, and the listing does not say whether it carries over here, so ask Watches of America to confirm in writing if manufacturer coverage matters to you. Shipping is listed as one to three business days with free shipping available.

- Tissot Le Locle Powermatic 80 Blue: Slimmer and more formal, if dress wear matters more than water resistance.

Think beyond the diameter.
The brand does not publish lug-to-lug for this reference, so use the case width, thickness and strap length to judge fit. Use our wrist-fit guide and compare the proportions with a watch you already enjoy wearing.
