Which one would you choose

I think Tissot flopped on this one

I'm sure the quality is great compared to the Casio. But they should at least put a negative display and shave off 100 bucks from retail.

This is the first time I’ve seen them side by side, and although I’m really not invested in Digi watches or Tissot as a brand, the quality of the PRX shines through in this image in my opinion.

Tissot would be great at 200-250.

Better case material, much better bracelet and sapphire crystal along with 100m w/r make it a better watch than the Casio,but not worth 375.

Would also like the Tisssot module to display date on same screen as the time instead of having to push a button. They claim quick release bracelet but it's integrated-so what the hell can you change it to?

·

I’ve thought about this. I Kinda like the Tissot with the black face.

·

I would choose the Tissot. It's better made in every way compared to the Casio and it reminds me of the digital Speedmasters (and other premium digital watches) from the 1970s.

·

Come on. Just look at the day. The Tissot one moves around to give a sense of progress through the week, and uses a three letter abbreviation. The Casio just stays still and skimps using two letters. NOT THE SAME. I do like the looks of the Casio bracelet better though.

Errrrrr ... No, just no. tsk, tsk Tissot

Flop

That is freaking cool as hell 😎

I think at retail MSRP no.

And enthusiasts are gonna say hard pass. Talking heads on YouTube are gonna rant, rave, and bemoan the "END OF TISSOT HAS COME!".

Meanwhile there is a distinct possibility Tissot will sell these like hotcakes to muggles who want a retro vibe and a "real" watch.

Then this time next year, there will be a bajillion new Crunchers talking about how the Moonswatch and the Tissot PRX Digital got them into watches. 😂

I can see that happening

Wow, that Casio actually looks really good. Wouldn't mind adding it to my collection.

Funny thing is, the best way to help insure our little non smartwatch world we love to never go away is to grow the hobby.

Every so often there's posts about when will traditional watches go away? Well they won't if new generations are introduced to non smart watches. Be they digital, analog, mechanical or quartz.

No different than any other enthusiast area, golf, firearms, pens, EDC, whatever.

Bring in new people. If they got the bug via overpaying for a watch, oh well. They still got the bug.

Moonswatch is a prime example. How many peeps got into watches via the little plastic toy with an Omega symbol on it?

Yeah. You're in DC (or WA?). I'm not. We get stung with taxes here.

I hadn’t noticed, guess it’s a good design

When I see that watch…

Meh. I'm waiting for the SANDA homage versions.

·

I still like digital watches, but the Tissot is not that cool. I would absolutely purchase the CASIO over it….

You are absolutely right bro.

I like it, but I just pulled the trigger on a digital watch and it wasn’t the Tissot.

SKMEI 💪

Yep thats a really ugly watch

If they sell look at the price hike from virtually the same watch in the casio as you pointed out so if they sell be far from a flop,I'm not buying one but I didn't buy the analog ether so flops all around for me but that's only on personal preference appreciate integrated bracelets especially on really thin vintage pieces,not on this wave though 👌
